Getting excited about your Memorial Day Weekend Plans? I am too, so I thought I would share my Memorial Day Travel Essentials with you! I like to pack efficiently – who want’s to lug around a huge suitcase, when let’s face it, we all wear the same 2 or 3 things when we go on a beach vacation.

These are my top 5 essentials.

1. Dorchester T-Shirt Dress in Grey Heather or Floral Print – also available in Black and Sripes! (Alexis Mera) 2. Adidas by Stella McCartney – Zipped Plunge Swimsuit (Net-A-Porter) 3. Corsica Straw Beach Tote (Madewell) 4. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Sunblock Body Mist, SPF 45 (Amazon) 5. Bright White Gizeh Leather Birkenstocks (Birkenstocks)

Styling Tips!

I love how Leslie Musser of One Brass Fox styled our Alexis Mera Grey Heather T-Shirt Dress.
