Your Go-To Vacation Outfit in 5 Pieces

For my family, it is finally vacation time and I could not be more excited. The beachfront condo, sun-kissed skin, and the boardwalk steal my heart every year. My favorite part of the entire week is seeking all of the different trends and styles other vacationers are pulling off on the boardwalk each night. For my first night of vacation, I pulled together a few basics and some statement pieces for a simple night out on the boardwalk.

I have been adoring the square neckline trend for a few months now, and I fell in love with this salmon-colored crop top because of it. I paired it with a pair of distressed denim high-waisted shorts in a lighter wash so that the contrast between the pink and blue wouldn’t be too much. To me, the outfit needed a little something more, so I added a western style double buckle belt. I realized after that not only did it add something to the outfit, but it also accentuated my waist.

Being beachfront means it will most likely get chilly at night, so I grabbed my all-time favorite denim jacket with embroidered detailing. I knew this would be risky since everyone knows not to wear denim on top of denim, but I learned that it has become one of my favorite style don’ts to pull off. To keep the outfit simple, I threw on some neutral slip-on sandals. To me, this outfit embodies some of the best summer trends right now and has a flirty and fun vibe perfect for a chill night.
