When I go on a summer vacation, my away suitcase is about 90% clothes. Day dresses, beach dresses, dresses for dinner, dresses for the day of travel … you name it. Dresses take up little space and are particularly photogenic, and you don’t have to spend a lot of money to get a great one, which I love to prove.
Similar to a wedding guest dress or a work dress, if you see one, you probably know a vacation dress. Think airy, tropical, colorful and fun. It should also be comfortable, because you don’t want to be otherwise on vacation. I’ve been sifting through the listings of some of my favorite brands for pieces that will be with you on your upcoming vacation (or stay!). All you need is a pair of sneakers, sandals, or high heels if you feel like it, and of course a tropical drink. Keep scrolling for the 33 vacation-ready dresses you just have to see.
