#GottaHaveIt 10 Items to Buy Before Your Next Vacation

May 01, 2016 in fashion, summer, clothing, accessories

Working in the fashion industry, and attending events and previews can honestly make you wish you were a millionaire. Being exposed to some of the best clothing and accessories months before they hit stories can really hurt your wallet. Though I am always in the market and making a mental list of what I want to add to my wardrobe, that doesn’t neccessarily mean I’m actually swiping my credit card and making a purchase (it’s unfortunately not possible).  Each week though, I will round up ten things to buy that I’m currently obsessed with. For more of my #GottaHaveIt edits checkout my Instagram @cvazzana. This weeks inspiration? Summer getaway essentials! 

When going away on a tropical getaway a flirty bikini is more than necessary. I love this one from L*Space because of the crisscross top and fun floral design. 

L*Space top, $119; lspace.com. L*Space bottom, $99; lspace.com. 

I've been searching for a while for the perfect summertime tote bag and this one is not only large enough to hold all of my essentials, but the colorful pom pom keychain makes it totally fashion forward. 

Target straw tote, $35; target.com

The braided band on this watch reminds me of the macrame bracelets I used to make when I was younger with my sisters. The colorful band makes it versatile enough to wear alone during the bay or stack it with an arm of bangles for a night out. 

Rumba watch, $60; rumbatime.com

Trade out your all black sunnies for this fun orange pair. 

Quay Australia, $50; quayaustralia.com

100% Mermaid 100% Awesome. 

Skinny Dip London, $15 (originally $26); pixiemarket.com

When packing for vacation you want to bring pieces you can get the most use out of. And this breezy little dress is the perfect thing to pair over your bikini for a day at the beach or with wedges for a night out. 

Zara dress, $70; zara.com

Not only does a straw hat protect your skin from sun damage, but it's also super stylish!

Lack of Color hat, $59; lackofcolor.com

These sandals made out of real cork with white whipstitching just give me nautical vibes. 

  Jack Rogers sandals, $118; jackrogersusa.com

Tassel earrings are super fun and always put me in a good mood- which is necessary when on vacation.

Vanessa Mooney earrings, $45; glamolife.com

             

 

 

 

 

 

All eyes will be on you when sunbathing on this colorful printed towel. 

Vera Bradley towel, $35; verabradley.com
