WHAT I'M PACKING | SPRING BREAK IN AZ


our spring break trip to AZ (phoenix/scottsdale) is soooo close! am i the only one that thinks counting down the days until a big trip is one of the most agonizing/fun/horrifying/exciting thing to do? personally i don't count the current day, and i don't count the day of the trip - in theory, it's less days than it actually is... right? anyway, during the wait, i gather in a laundry bin all the stuff that catches my eye, and that i think would make the perfect trip. besides a great playlist, some cute sunnies, and a chic carryall, i wanted to share with you all my fave essentials for an awesome spring break!

  1. ban.do sunglasses strap: seriously - too cute to pass up, it keeps the sunnies around your                                                   neck at all times. no more frantic searching for the lost pair. 
  2. brixton piper fedora@gparrish can so rock the hat look. go with an oversized floppy or a                                            chic fedora for extra sun protection. 
  3. birkenstock arizona sandals: birks are making their comeback - snag a pair in leather, teal,                                                        purple, white, or even gold
  4. ae distressed jeans shorts: besides being a spring staple, these shorties add a messy-but-not                                                  vibe to any outfit. 
  5. mossimo white bandeau: simply said, white looks awesome on a tan. 
  6. ae high waitsed bottom: with a slight vintage touch, ae does it again with the perfect pattern. (i                                         actually bought this pair myself, to go with my white bathing suit top.)
  7. herschel & co backpack: herschel and co makes me heart eye emoji. seriously. this pack is                                                 perfect for the beach, the poolside, or even a hike! 
  8. intax instant camera: i have an instax, and it's the greatest. with settings for indoor, outdoor,                                         cloudy, or sunny, you'll always be ready to capture the perfect                                                  moment.
