Summer Vacation Lookbook & Destination Wishlist

Summer time equals vacation time!

With the summer in full effect, now is the time to take a vacation or two. In this look book I picked vacation locations that I'm eager to visit then I made made an outfit that I could imagine myself rocking as I enjoy a much needed break from the tediousness that life can be.

Check my looks and vacay locations below!

Pink in Tahiti

I've been dreaming of taking a vacation to the south Pacific. I'm obsessed with the overwater bungalows that are very popular in Tahiti. I can imagine myself laying on the beach under a palm tree napping the day away. My favorites from this look are the Hunza G pink swimsuit, I love the simplicity of a one-piece. The Kate Spade perfume is appropriately named sunshine for a day in the sun. Finally the Mystique pom pom tote is the perfect accessory for toting all your beach essentials for a sun filled Tahitian day.

Paradise Island Dreams

I''m dreaming a of vacation to the Atlantis Paradise Island Resort in the Bahamas. I think the Bahamas is one of the ultimate vacation destinations, I can imagine myself indulging in the resort amenities while sipping on a fruity cocktail. The swimsuit top and bottom from Dorthy Perkins are great for a day of pool hopping. I love the "Crazy, Sexy, Cool" embroidery on the Poolside beach bag and the Matthew Williamson cat-eye butterfly are totally chic sunnies to shield your eyes from the Caribbean sun.

New York Nights

New York, New York! The city that never sleeps would be an amazing place to spend part of the summer. There would be a limitness amount of things to do, I don't think its a city you can ever really be bored. For a night out in summer time New York, I'm loving this femme forever t-shirt and these extra cool fish net detailed jeans from Topshop. The Jeffery Campbell bow slide sandals and the Gucci mini bag are my absolute favorites they add a lot to this look.

A Roman Holiday

Oh Rome how I love thee! I'm dreaming of a Roman holiday, I would love to spend a week roaming around the historic streets and buildings of Rome. For a day of exploring the city I'm loving these Topshop high waisted ripped denim shorts with the T by Alexander Wang white tee. The Givenchy pandora bag is perfect for a day of exploring and I'm obsessed with the crazy popular Alexander Wang Ameila sandals.

Summer Accessory Essentials

The first day of summer is tomorrow!

To start off the new season, I picked some summer accessory essentials that are must have during the long summer days. Woven and wicker bags are super on trend for summer, these no fuss bags are perfect to take to the beach or on a picnic. I'm loving the the Prada wicker tote, it screams statement bag. I've been obsessed with platform espadrilles for awhile, they are the perfect summer shoe because they give you height you want but are also super easy to walk in. Floppy hats with slogans embroidered on them are definite summer essentials, they are so cute to wear on holiday and most importantly they are great for an Instagram pics. My favorite summer accessory are pool floats, they make a day at the pool so much more fun. I really liking one piece swimsuits, I think they can be really sexy and are much easier to wear than their two piece counterparts. Sunglasses are also the perfect summer accessory, not only do they protect your eyes from the sun's rays they are also are great statement pieces. Last on my essentials are beach towels, I'm loving the round beach towel trend they functional and look super nice on the beach or pool side.
