What to Pack for Every Type of Spring Breaker
Seaside Sojourn
The most iconic of all spring break getaways, a beach vacation is a breath of fresh air after surviving the winter months. The primary thing on your packing list should be sun protection—hats, sunscreen, cover-ups. Of course, you'll need a swimsuit or two, a gauzy 'fit for dinners outdoors, and sandals that work with it all. Sea for yourshellf.
Theme Park Trip
The key to conquering a long day at a theme park is ease and utility (pockets!) while still looking cute for family photos. You have to be comfortable in long lines, zipping on roller coasters, and perhaps getting splashed. And with kiddos in tow, you'll need a bag full of snacks (and then some). If you pack one thing, make it overalls. If you pack two, the perfect sneakers.
Homey Holiday
A few days to cozy up in your casa? Count us in. Dive into your to-read stack, start some spring cleaning, lay in the yard in the middle of the day—we don't always have enough time to truly enjoy our homes, so go ahead and bask in this opportunity. Obviously, you don't have anything to pack, per se, but you should gear your outfits toward comfort and relaxation. Luxurious leisurewear.
Big-City Expedition
Get ready to hit the pavement exploring all there is to see in a new-to-you metropolis. From museum galleries to park lawns, landmarks, and restaurants, you'll need an outfit that's versatile to make the most of every day. This is where day-to-night dressing finally applies. Comfortable shoes and a good tote are a must, as are layers. Most importantly, you want to look like you belong there, so leave your "I'm a tourist" look at home.
