Suitcase Staples: Our Spring Break Must-Haves!

It’s time to take a break from this cold Canadian winter jet down to some of our favourite hot spots. There are a variety of escapes in the sunshine state to work on our tan, and get some R&R.

Packing the perfect suitcase is the key to enjoying your vacation to the fullest. Space is limited, so leave any ill-fitting or uncomfortable pieces behind – you want to feel confident in every single style you bring! We’ve rounded up our top picks for this Spring Break! Whether you’re hanging out at the pool with the girls in Palm Springs, winetasting in Napa, surfing in Miami, or exploring San Diego with your family, we have the right look for you.

NAPA VALLEY TOUR

Wandering around wine country makes for a vacation filled with great food, wine, and luxurious days by the pool. Dress for your glamorous life by adding textured pieces to your suitcase help to elevate your style. Choosing swimwear with crochet, mesh, or embroidery is the perfect way to inject some detail in your vacation wardrobe.

The perfect example is this high neck one piece from Laundry! The illusion V-neck makes this suit sexy while still providing flattering. Beautiful embroidered floral designs accentuate your curves and a high cut leg gives the illusion of mile long legs!

Pair this one piece with a wide brim hat, and a pair of cat eye sunglasses for the perfect poolside outfit.

PALM SPRINGS FESTIVAL

Spring is coming, and so is festival fashion! Swimwear is a staple desert look because it serves double duty in your suitcase. Think a one piece as a bodysuit or bikinis as crop tops. Toss on a flowing kimono and you’re ready to stand out in the crowd.

The key to “boho chic” is layering. Combining colours, textures, and accessories add interest to the anchor of your outfit: a unique one piece .This tropical one piece from Baku checks every box! It combines fun colours, a strappy back, and an adjustable lace up front. We’ve added our favourite pair of jean shorts to keep things looking effortless.

MIAMI GUYS’ TRIP

Craving that vitamin sea? Miami is where you need to be. Pack swimsuits that have you feeling your best, whether you’re taking on the surf or heading to brunch with the boys. Shorts with higher hems are everywhere, and look great with a tank when you’re not seaside.

The ideal vacation shorts for men are covered in fun patterns. The beach is THE place to rock a tourist print so take full advantage! Pineapples, floral designs, and tiki prints are right on trend for Spring Break.

SAN DIEGO WITH FAMILY

When we think of San Diego, we think of fun in the sun! From the zoo, to the beach, to rollercoaster rides, and everything in between, it’s the perfect place to adventure for the whole family. Make sure to pack versatile pieces and bright beachwear for the adults and kids on your list! Fun prints and florals will keep everyone looking great and having fun. Pieces with UV protection also help between sunscreen applications.

For girls, striking the right balance between fit and style will keep your little beach babe happy. There is nothing worse than a swimsuit that doesn’t fit, so if she’s tall, look for separates that provide the right amount of coverage to keep her comfortable. The right suit paired with a sundress or shorts will make for an easy outfit that she can rock all day long. Complete her look with a cute sun hat and a great pair of sandals!

When it comes to shopping for boys, versatile pieces will save space and time. Quick dry materials help to keep you on-the-go, and can take you from the water park to lunch in no time. A shorter hem will help him run around and move with ease, while the adjustable waist will help him get the perfect fit.
