1. Bathing Suit: Obvious choice, bring one chic and simple suit that you can wear all weekend and look good doing it. Try this super cute one from Old Navy
2. Black Tank Top: This is your chameleon. Whether you wear it over your bathing suit by the pool, under a blazer, or with jeans for a day or night on the town this will be your best friend
3. Bangles: No need to pack an exurbanite amount of jewelery, just pack a set of bangles. You can put as many or as little on as you want.
4. Fedora: By the pool, day trips or a sexy cool night out with jeans and your black tank you will feel cool whether its in the sun or in the dark
5. Statement Necklace: Choose just one or two pieces to bring with you, something bold that will stand out in a sea of vacationers and make you feel special. There is no jewelery store that can make you feel more special like Charm and Chain
6. Jersey Dress: Easy to pack, doesn't take up much room nor does it require too much care. This white one is easy effortless and just says I'm on vacation!
7. Flat Sandal: Whether you are hitting the pool or running around town, even I understand that you can't be in 5" platform pumps all the time. I like these because they have multiple colors but aren't overtly flashy. They will go with whatever you wear which saves on the packing.
8.Skinny Jeans: Staple. Do I need to say any more?
9. Lip Balm with SPF: You have to protect your lips while laying out and keep them kiss ably smooth all day
10. Sandal: Now I chose this orange one because it is fun but if you notice it still compliments all the other pieces that I am bringing. It works with my white dress, adds a pop to my black tank and adds an edge to my green sweater. Now you can choose any color you want, most will choose nude or black but don't be afraid to have a little fun! Even if you make a faux pas who cares you're on vacation! You wont see a majority of these people ever again.
11. Ipod Dock: Not every hotel has one, if yours doesn't you certainly don't want to leave without one! What fun is getting ready to go out in utter silence. This is a must must have. The great thing about this particular one is that its small, lightweight and inexpensive. $17 at Amazon
12. Clutch: You don't want to lug around your weekender everywhere you go, so pack a small clutch. Big enough to fit your essentials but small enough that you don't have to be bothered. This Marc by Marc Jacobs clutch from Endless does that duty
13. Lightweight Sweater: It may feel like Summer but we all know that those Summer nights aren't here just yet. Pack a cozy lightweight sweater to take the chill of those cozy moonlight nights.
14. Denim Shorts: Run around town, throw on after the pool or pair it with your black tank and boyfriend blazer; like your skinny jeans these are another staple
15. Boyfriend Blazer: Chic, easy and comfortable this is a great throw on when you just don't know what to wear. It will dress up even the most casual outfit.
