We tend to take very beach or pool heavy spring break trips in our family. I usually pack just a few outfits for occasional sight-seeing, plenty of bathing suits and cover-ups and a few outfits for dinners and then call it good. I always try to pack as smart as possible. In order to keep my suitcase as minimalist as possible I try to stick to a general color theme for a trip. Lately I'm drawn to pink (maybe you've heard!?!?) and blue is always a given for a trip. It's just so easy to mix and match. For my upcoming trips this spring I am also packing plenty of white... it's not always the easiest for traveling (hello, Tide stain stick!) but lately I seem especially drawn to fresh and crisp white pieces.
Here is a little peek into what will be in my suitcase this spring...
