For me, white dresses are like the leather jacket of summer, a staple that every glow girl should have in their closet. A great white dress always looks chic and can take you from day to night depending on your accessories. They are perfect to wear on vacation or to any summer chic party! Here are the ones that I chose from some of the brands I love!

I like to take along a few new things when traveling on vacation that are stylish and functional. For me, it always seems to be a challenge not to overpack but I am working on making smarter packing decisions like sticking to one color scheme and taking along pieces that work from day to night. I put together some great fashion finds for your next summer vacation that are super versatile and can be worn throughout the season.

1. The perfect swimsuit - High waisted bikini styles are so on trend right now and they are flattering on most body types! Some great brands include Cami and Jax, P2F and L'Space. Plus a great kimono (like the Free People one pictured above) can be tied and worn as a dress or used as a jacket to wear from day to night.

Order a swimsuit from Cami and Jax and use code glowgirl10 for a 10% discount!

2. Dress to wear from the beach to dinner - I love this gorgeous Natalie Martin dress which is perfect for Italy. I’m also a huge fan of dresses from Ba&Sh, Love Shack Fancy, Sunday Saint Tropez, Self-Portrait, Faithful the Brand, and Misa.

Shoes by Vision Quest. Cropped jeans by Mother. Tote by Mansur Gavriel shown with TOPTOTE hat clip.

3. Comfy Chic Sandals & Sneakers - My latest obsession are flats by Vision Quest Shoes (use code glowgirl10 for 10% off) as well as some staple faves by Ancient Greek Sandals block heels or slides from Loeffler Randall and Nike Classic Cortez sneakers as shown above.

4. Cropped pants - I love my classic Franne Golde magic pants in white as seen in the above picture with Janet Gunn! Other faves include Levis Wedgie Icon, stretch high-waisted by Mother Denim, and cropped white linen pants by Faithful The Brand.

Sunnies by Diff, Ex-Boyfriend Trucker Jacket by Levis, Tote bag by Mansur Gavriel & Hat by Halogen, Hat Clip by TOPTOTE.

5. Sunnies - I usually like to take a few pair with me since there are so many amazing styles out now, they can change up your look depending on the style. I wear styles by Illesteva, Le Specs, Diff Eyewear, Oliver Peoples and Ray Bans.

6. Pretty Straw Hat + TopTote. A hat is a must-have to protect your skin and completes your day look too! Make sure to take the new TopTote with you - this chic hat clip is genius and attaches to your bag or luggage. It makes for the perfect travel companion and keeps your hat crush-free. Halogen has a great selection of budget-friendly hats that are stylish and chic.

8. Jacket - Pack one for those cooler nights and if you are flying, wear on the plane! A light jacket in denim like this Levi's Denim Trucker Jacket or a white linen blazer are classic and go with everything.

7. Tote bags and fanny packs make great travel bags - I love Wandler, Maje, Zimmerman, and these Bandolier phone cases for hands free photos.

9. Tech must-haves to stay connected - Xcentz.com phone charger - small size does 1.3 charges and comes in several colors + Skyroam Solis, wireless airpods, longer charging cables for phones and devices is so important during travel. Use code GLOWGIRL10 to get 10% off your Skyroam wireless device!
