What to wear on vacation. Packing a suitcase or how to create the optimal wardrobe for a seaside holiday

Well, spring has come, I don’t really want to sit at home in a chair with a book, and it seems that everyone is already planning a vacation. I increasingly began to come across photographs of suitcases and vacation sets and decided to make here a selection of vacation capsules that fit into one suitcase (sometimes even into hand luggage).

Here there are examples of capsules for different types of vacation - both at sea and in the city, for different weather conditions.

And, by the way, there are many good formulas when capsule compilers offer a certain number of “tops”, “bottoms”, accessories and so on, I think it will be easier for many with such mathematics.

All pictures are clickable and lead to the original sources.

Monochrome capsule. Pay attention to a smart top, pumps and a clutch - things that can turn the entire set from casual into smart casual.

Autumn wardrobe for two weeks. The neutral base and several accents of dull colors, ideal for the summer color type, combine quite well with each other, and the capsule does not turn out boring.

And here is the formula for how to assemble a wardrobe capsule for a vacation in a southern resort.

Mini-cheat sheet on how to pack things in a suitcase.

A 3-week wardrobe capsule that fits in your carry-on luggage. In fact, there is a rather controversial combination of colors here (black and white contrasts with bright blue for the “winter” color type, and here pearl-gray scarf with dusty shades for “summer”). But the set of things itself can be taken as a basis by adjusting the color scheme.

Another attempt to develop a capsule wardrobe formula. A good approach is to first assemble a basic capsule and then add color accents to it.

How to pack a wardrobe for two weeks in your hand luggage (plus in this list you can immediately estimate how much space will be taken up by other necessary things that are usually not included in wardrobe sets - underwear, pajamas, cosmetic bag, shower slippers, etc.):

What to take with you to Europe in spring - a very minimalist capsule:

And again - 16 things, 40 outfits in one suitcase. Not a bad mini-wardrobe for autumn-spring, however, for traveling I personally am embarrassed by shoes here, especially rubber boots - there are not many places where they will really be needed, and putting heavy hunters, as in the photo, in a suitcase is immediately +2 .5 kg, which, given the limit of many airlines for hand luggage of 10 kg, is already critical.

Vacation capsule for the “summer” color type (16 things that will fit in a suitcase. Pay attention to the list - based on it, you can assemble a capsule from what you have in your wardrobe):

And again, a capsule for a vacation in Paris, this time in the summer - but in fact, just a good summer capsule, with which you can go to Samara and Sochi. But personally, here I would replace two pairs of shorts with two skirts - long and semi-long, this will give more room for creativity.

Another fall capsule for the week that should fit in your carry-on luggage. Pay attention to the colors: the capsule is small, but due to the multi-colored tops it gives a feeling of variety.

Here is a small but very bright capsule. Be careful with prints and textures; everything here should be in perfect harmony in color.

Wardrobe for a trip to Europe. A good neutral base, but here it would be better to replace some of the things with brighter ones - otherwise this capsule will get boring very quickly.

Summer capsule in pastel colors - a story more likely for a work trip:

A very simple mini-capsule in a casual style - you can take it with you on a trip for a week. And again, an excellent formula: 4 basic looks + an additional layer (sweatshirt and bright cardigan) to diversify the capsule.

The capsule is called “7 winter days”, but the number of tops here seems excessive - but for two weeks it’s a good option.

Again, questions about color, but here is a good set of things to look quite varied in style - from completely casual looks with a checkered shirt and sneakers, to formal ones with a little black dress and a sophisticated cardigan (by the way, it can also be worn with boots and sneakers ),

And again the formula: accessories - 5 items, 4 tops, 3 bottoms, 2 pairs of shoes, a bag. An excellent option for cool summers or warm springs in the city.

A casual capsule for a vacation by the lake or cool sea (for example, for spring Crete on a last-minute package or something similar).

And again a whole list for the suitcase, where everything has already been counted. A completely viable capsule for a vacation in the city, but I would take the second trousers here simply in white, beige or pink - otherwise it’s easy to miss the mix of prints, and the dress can be lengthened).

Here's another tiny two-week capsule with explanations (and it'll actually fit in your carry-on).

This capsule is offered for three weeks and can also be included in hand luggage (this is already doubtful - there are 5 pairs of shoes), but it is also an option for those who like variety:

Here is the long-awaited descent! Finally, in a few days you will find yourself by the sea. Tickets are on the table, hair removal is done, suitcase is packed. Only there was a slight hiccup with the last one, because almost half of the closet had migrated into the suitcase and it didn’t want to close at all. You even sat down on it, hoping that the zipper would still deign to close. I think that this situation is familiar to many. Without really straining yourself, you simply dump all your summer clothes into your suitcase, reassuring yourself that you are not carrying your own burden, and, in general, you never know what you might need. And this despite the fact that you are traveling for only ten days. As you may have guessed, the approach is absolutely wrong and requires a review of not only your suitcase, but yours as a whole. You can look stylish and different every day with a minimum number of things. How? That's what I'm going to tell you. I confess, this topic should have been discussed at the beginning of May; perhaps many have already spent their well-deserved vacation. But if you are not one of them, then my material today will be extremely useful to you.

Before we get into things, let's look at the basic criteria for choosing clothes for vacation:
Cut and silhouette: The main thing here is comfort and convenience. Clothes should not hinder your movements. This does not mean at all that I advise you to wear shapeless robes, but tight silhouettes will also not be the best option. Try to find a middle ground.

Color: choose several colors from your palette that go well with each other. This will make it easier for you to create harmonious images. I recommend leaving dark colors for the winter.
Textile: The best choice, of course, would be natural fabrics; they allow the body to breathe, absorb and evaporate moisture well, and cause a pleasant sensation when in contact with the body. These materials include linen, silk, viscose and cotton. Although I would make an amendment regarding the latter. Despite the fact that cotton is an ideal material for hot climates, it is difficult to call it practical, since it wrinkles instantly and takes a very long time to dry. Mixed fabrics will help solve this problem (a small addition of synthetics will not be superfluous).
Well, the most important thing to consider is the compatibility of all your luggage. In other words, every item you pack into your luggage must go with at least three more items in your suitcase.

Let's finally get down to collecting your luggage. The purpose of your vacation is to relax at sea, which means we’ll start our preparations with the formation of a beach image, where, of course, the highlight of the program will be swimsuit. Two will be enough for you and it’s better if they differ in color and style. You can read about how to choose a swimsuit that is right for you.

Well, everything is clear with the swimsuit, now you need to think about what you will wear to get from your hotel room to the beach. It would be good to know in advance how far one is located from the other. For example, if you are planning to stay in a hotel on the first coastline, then a sarong* will be enough. (Sarong is a strip of cotton colored lightweight fabric that is wrapped around the waist or mid-chest and covers the lower part of the body). And if you have to stomp further away, it would be better to throw something over your hangers, for example, a tunic. In addition to being ethical, it will help you avoid getting a sunburn that's clearly not part of your vacation plans. In any case, whatever you choose, this item should match both swimsuits.

To complete the beach look, add a few accessories:
-beach sandals,
- select a hat (or any other headdress),
- we select a bag for the hat,
-don't forget about high-quality sunglasses. They will not only protect your eyes from the sun's rays, but will also help hide the consequences of a fun night the night before from others. Naturally, you will need them not only on the beach.

* When choosing a hat and glasses, be guided by yours.

We've more or less sorted out the beach look. I very much doubt that your entire vacation will take place along the hotel-beach-hotel route. You'll probably want to explore the nearby attractions, stroll through the local shops, or even just have a couple of cocktails at the bar. So we'll need some more clothes.

Tops(everything we put on our upper body) . There should be more of them than “bottoms”; firstly, they will not take up much space in your luggage, and secondly, it is the tops that create the feeling of novelty of the image. Let's stop at five, four of which will be with short sleeves or without them at all, plus one with long sleeves. The main thing is not to take doubles (they are as similar as two peas in a pod), otherwise you risk looking the same all the time.

« Bottoms"(everything we wear on the lower body). The main thing here is to ensure that each bottom is combined with at least three tops. Don't overdo it, 3-4 items will be enough. The best option is shorts, a skirt and trousers. You can adjust the style and length at your own discretion. Regarding jeans, they are certainly a very practical and versatile item, however, they are not entirely suitable for hot climates and, in addition, jeans will take up more space in your suitcase than light trousers. And if you are generally not a fan of trousers (like me, for example), then you can replace them with a long skirt. You can read about what kind of skirts are in fashion now.

Dresses. Well, what would it be like to go to sea without it! I advise you to stop at two, but remember that they should differ at least in color and length. For example, you can take light and dark or long and short. An excellent option for going to the sea would be a shirt dress - functional, beautiful, and most importantly, comfortable. I recommend leaving an evening dress with sequins, rhinestones and a long train at home.

Outerwear. If you hope that you won’t need it, I hasten to disappoint you, it can be cool in the evenings even in hot countries. For outerwear, you can take a light cardigan or denim jacket or shirt with you. I also advise you to check the weather forecast; rain in the summer in the southern regions is far from uncommon.

Shoes. This is perhaps the most difficult part - there are so many requirements. The main criterion is, of course, convenience and comfort. Therefore, I advise you to leave new or unworn shoes at home. In addition, shoes should not be very heavy and take up the floor of your suitcase, so don’t even try to squeeze shoes with thick heels or chunky platform sandals in there. Of course, your shoes should be tested for durability, because you don't want to spend your entire vacation looking for a repair shop. It would also be naive to believe that you can find something suitable in local shops. Three pairs of shoes will be enough for everything - beach sandals, which we have already packed, comfortable shoes for walking (light ballet flats are ideal) and an evening pair. As a last resort, I advise you to take sandals with not very high heels. Oh, and make sure at home that you can dance in them. About what shoes are being worn this summer

*Remember that shoes should be in the same style as your clothes.
*About how to choose the right summer shoes.

Accessories. In addition to the beach bag, you will need a small handbag that can accompany you both on a city tour and to an evening-night event. Remember that it should match the color and style of your clothes. You definitely don’t need to take a large “I carry everything with me” bag. I also advise you to take a light silk scarf; it can protect you in windy weather or, conversely, hide your shoulders from the scorching sun. Well, the last thing is this. The stylish minimum is beautiful earrings and a bracelet. In general, since jewelry does not take up much space, you can decide for yourself how much you can take with you. Although, I don’t recommend taking your entire jewelry box; it would be a shame if you returned without it.

Well, that seems to be all. Now let's see what our suitcase will look like when disassembled.

Let's look at a few images that can come out of our suitcase.

Beach look.

Daytime images.


Evening looks.


As you can see, it is quite diverse and this is only one third of what we can add up from such a seemingly small set of things. Therefore, if you approach the organization of your luggage wisely, you can look spectacular, stylish, and most importantly, varied for the entire ten days of your vacation.

Instead of concluding, I want to give you a little more advice. Under no circumstances should your suitcase be filled to capacity; be sure to leave some empty space. I think you will want to bring gifts and souvenirs for your loved ones, and maybe you will even update your wardrobe. As you understand, you can’t carry all this in your hands. And in order not to buy an additional suitcase of dubious quality, which after the trip will languish on the mezzanine, I advise you to think about it in advance.

I WISH YOU AN UNFORGETTABLE VACATION!

Nothing pleases the eye more than a folded suitcase!

If you have already gone on vacation before, then you know that putting together a beach wardrobe is not as easy as it seems - something will definitely be forgotten at home, and something will remain unworn. We always take with us only the essentials, but as a result it turns out that the “necessities” are a whole suitcase. Putting together the right capsule wardrobe is an art that is not so difficult to learn if you know the basic rules for selecting things.

Choosing a wardrobe at sea: 3 main points

Before you begin the exact selection of things, make a list - it should be divided into 3 blocks:

Wardrobe staple (capsule). Here you will find things on the basis of which your entire travel wardrobe will be built.

Seasonal items. These include swimsuits, sunglasses, pareos and all those things that we associate with the sea.

Accessories. Shoes, bags, backpacks, jewelry - all those little things that complete our look and make our vacation comfortable.

For each of these blocks, you will need to make a more detailed list, add to it more than once or cross out unnecessary ones. Try not to let your basic wardrobe for a seaside holiday grow into a whole closet - you won’t be able to take things for all occasions with you, so a basic set of items with a few items for sudden weather changes will be quite enough.

Basic summer wardrobe at sea: a few useful rules

There are a number of simple rules that will allow you to pack a small suitcase with only the most useful things that you will actually wear:

Think about what exactly you will be doing - if you are only going to spend time on the beach, then you can cross out some things, for example, an evening dress, right away.

The wardrobe should also be selected depending on the duration of the trip - for 2 weeks you will have to take approximately the same amount of things as for 10 days (an impressive suitcase). But for 5 days, an ordinary travel bag is enough.

Don't forget to check the weather forecast - although you won't get exact data, it still doesn't hurt to get an overall picture. This will determine what your wardrobe will be like on vacation at sea - sometimes you have to add long sleeves to your swimsuits.

In addition, do not forget that on a trip you will still have to take not only a basic set of things, but also several wardrobe items just in case - it may get sharply cold, and weather forecasters may not be prepared for such a development of events.


Beach chic: from small details to a complete look

We have selected for you several photos that show the most current trends in beach fashion for the summer of 2017. Following these trends, you can choose fashionable outfits for an ideal vacation - a minimum of things to create an attractive image.

Luxurious white: playing with contrast

On vacation, a tan is the first thing you gain from your experience. Therefore, a white swimsuit is a must-have, without which both a luxurious and an economical holiday option cannot be avoided. Add to this:

A cute white hat with a black ribbon,

Stylish sunglasses with thick frames,

Black flip-flops with flat soles.

Why black ones if the swimsuit is white? It's simple: beach fashion 2017 looks favorably on contrasting colors, leaving acidic shades behind last year. A white swimsuit and black accessories - just like that, clearly and clearly, without excesses.

Spanish flair: boho chic

It doesn’t matter where you spend your vacation - on the “Golden Coast” of Bulgaria, in sunny Odessa or luxurious Ibiza. You will definitely love this year's trend - boho chic, which allows you to relax and leave the pretentiousness of high fashion behind:

Loose linen robe with beautiful patterns on the collar and sleeves,

Wide-brimmed hat with thick fringe of wine or carmine shade,

Red mini bikinis and tops to match,

Accessories based on various brushes.

This set of things will take up a minimum of space, but you will thank yourself more than once if you take them with you: a light robe made of natural material (linen, cotton) is pleasant to the skin, does not float, and can both protect you from the slight evening coolness and cover delicate skin from excessively strong sun rays.

Roads of Saint-Tropez

Designers assure that the most stylish girls on the beach will be those who remember the romantic retro look:

Straw flirty hat,

Espadrille slippers, not willing to give up their positions since 2015,

Bag-basket (can also be wicker),

Retro-style swimsuit with a closed bodice.

If you want to complete the look of French women of the last century, and approach the elegance of Catherine Deneuve (or the sensuality of Brigitte Bardot), you will definitely need classic style sunglasses with thick horn frames.

By the way, if the choice falls on a swimsuit model with a crop top, you can safely wear it with a high-waisted skirt just below the knee. This combination looks very harmonious and allows you to create another attractive classic look, and it is suitable even for a woman over 50.

2 in 1: two swimsuits turn into three

Fashionistas this summer are advised to add at least 2 swimsuits to their wardrobe for a beach holiday, and their tops and bottoms should be easily combined with each other. Thanks to this move, you can look a little different every time, even with a minimal wardrobe.

All that remains is to choose two models that will be combined. And here two simple rules will come to the rescue: use either similar shades or contrasting ones. For example, a mint bikini can be paired with a more saturated blue top. A fashionable look in the style of minimalism this summer - metallic flip-flops, a sports bag with silver clasps, deliberately wide shorts with a bright tropical print.

But true chic this summer lies in the combination of two contrasting colors:

Turquoise swimsuit. Bikini in a delicate shade, top - print of palm leaves. Over the swimsuit, throw on a jumpsuit made of thin denim with short shorts, nautical espadrilles, add a basket bag, a wicker hat - and your stylish look with minimal space in your suitcase is ready.

Black swimsuit. Classics are eternal, and black, which has returned to the list of fashionable shades, is proof of this. Custom laces on the back make the 2017 models very interesting. If you want to walk to the nearest cafe, put on short denim shorts and throw a mesh cape over your shoulders.

Both of these swimsuits combine perfectly with each other, so there will be no dissonance in your appearance when arranging the top and bottom of these models.

If you combine all types of beachwear, you get something like this list:

Two matching swimsuits

White top - universal clothing for excursions, parties and the beach (it all depends on the bottom),

2 bags: one small with a long strap, the second - roomy or just a stylish backpack,

Several pairs of shoes: flip flops, sandals, espadrilles,

Denim shorts or overalls,

Mid-length skirt in a bright shade.

Once you try to combine these items with each other, you will realize that you now know exactly how to put together a capsule wardrobe for a few days of relaxation. If the trip is planned for a longer period, girls are advised to take a couple more things with them:

Sundress,

Semi-sports jerseys,

Thin cardigan for the evening,

shirt,

Scarf made of thin fabric (tie on your head, cover your shoulders).

If you approach the issue of packing things correctly, then all your wealth will fit into a small suitcase, dispelling the myths that girls need several suitcases for a good rest.

Capsule wardrobe at sea: don’t forget about excursions

In addition to going to the beach, you will most likely have exciting excursions ahead, so here too you need to create a basic wardrobe taking into account the time you will be on vacation.

Option #1

Denim jacket or short jacket,

T-shirt, T-shirt and top - a trio for any occasion,

Shorts, trousers or jeans,

Summer holidays should leave only pleasant memories. During summer travel, clothing plays a big role. To eliminate various inconveniences and misunderstandings, it is important to properly think through your wardrobe. What might you need during your summer holiday?

Wardrobe for a trip to the sea

How much clothing will you need if you are planning to relax at sea? Usually this question arises among girls.

In this case, the minimum set of clothing will include the following:

  • A pair of light dresses or sundresses of different lengths. One dress should be a beach dress, and the second should be an evening dress. It's good if you take a cocktail dress if you are planning a banquet or any other event. Dresses must be plain. Moreover, one of the dresses can be snow-white.
  • A set of warm clothes, necessary for a cool evening. Take a warm jacket, sweater or windbreaker.
  • Swimsuit and two sets of underwear. Regarding the swimsuit, it is better if there are at least two of them. While one swimsuit is drying, the second one can be worn.
  • You will also need a couple of T-shirts or T-shirts, pareos, shorts and tunics.

Such a small wardrobe will give you the opportunity to spend your summer holiday without inconvenience and in comfort. It is important to bring items that go well together. In this case, they can be combined not only in color, but also in style.

Don't forget good sunglasses to protect your eyes from the bright southern sun. In addition, they should look beautiful and fit you.

We should talk separately about summer hats. You will definitely need them. This could be a Panama hat, a hat or a bright scarf. For men, a hat or cap is suitable. You can't do without a hat in the midst of the sun.

For women


For men

For men, the following set of clothes is enough:

  • Several T-shirts.
  • Several pairs of socks.
  • Swimming trunks and underwear.
  • Shorts.

For evenings and parties, you will need a short-sleeve shirt and light trousers. Don't forget to take care of possible cold weather.

To stay warm, you will need the following wardrobe items:

  • Trousers or warm pants.
  • Olympia or sweatshirt.

Don't forget about head protection. For men, a baseball cap or cap is suitable. For shoes, go for flip flops, sandals and sneakers. Don't forget good sunglasses.

For children

Children will need the following clothing:

  • Socks, T-shirts and underwear.
  • Swimsuit for girls and swimming trunks for boys.
  • Denim or cotton shorts for boys.
  • Sundress for girls.
  • Scarf or Panama hat with wide brims.
  • Take a shirt for the evening with trousers for boys and a dress for girls.
  • You will need warm clothes, including a sweatshirt and warm pants.
  • Shoes you will need are flip-flops, sandals and sneakers. Sandals should have a tight heel and an open toe. It would be better if they had Velcro.

If you are going on vacation with children, do not forget about a small first aid kit.

Get travel health insurance

What to wear to the beach?

When going to the beach, it is better to immediately put on a swimsuit, even if there are changing cabins. Wear a light dress on top without fasteners or zippers. This will allow you to avoid problems while changing clothes on the beach. Don't forget to take a spacious canvas bag.

You can put the following things in it:

  • Pareo.
  • Towel.
  • Suntan cream.

A rectangular bag with a simple cut and comfortable long handles will be the best option. It should be as simple as possible so as not to attract unnecessary attention.

Evening wear on vacation

For an evening walk and a restaurant, you will need a cocktail dress. You can even wear a dress that you wear during the day. But in this case, you will have to choose a beautiful belt or belt to go with it.

Bright beads will look good on your neck. It’s better to replace your beach bag with a quality clutch. Flip-flops should be replaced with sandals with wedges or heels.

A minimal set is suitable for an evening relaxation. These could be wedge clogs, a long sundress and a small amount of jewelry.

It's better not to take expensive jewelry. The look will be complemented by a small amount of cosmetics and beautiful hairstyle. You will also need a small amount of skin care cosmetics to avoid problems due to the scorching sun and salty sea water.

Thus, when going on vacation in the summer, it is important to take everything into account. Take a small wardrobe that should include everything you need. This is important so as not to carry heavy suitcases with clothes that you will never wear.

Vacation, sun, sea, beach – a dream. The sea gives strength, relieves the fatigue accumulated over the year, and saturates with energy. This is why most people prefer to spend their holidays on the seashores with family or friends.

But friends will pack their own bag, but you and I will have to think through a wardrobe for ourselves, our husband and child, and what, exactly, to take with us on vacation. Before you start packing, make a complete list, including all the little things, down to the nail file. Then you are less likely to forget something.

Seeing his wife getting ready to go on the road, especially a long trip, any man secretly or openly begins to be indignant - where to get so many things, why do you need this, why do you need this... And it’s good if the matter does not end in a scandal. Therefore, dear men, if a woman does not ask you for advice, then, perhaps, the right decision would be to leave and not interfere with her collecting her wardrobe.

What clothes should a woman take to the sea?

  • Swimsuit. It’s better to take two – open and closed. And a change on the beach won’t hurt if you suddenly don’t like sitting in the wet.
  • Headdress - a brimmed hat or baseball cap to cover the face. It’s not very nice when a burnt nose peels off.
  • Several sets of underwear - panties, bras, T-shirts, nighties. How many? At your discretion, depending on how long you are leaving. 3-5 sets are basically enough. One nightie is enough.
  • Set of home clothes. You will need to wear some clothes at home. And it is advisable that it is not a robe, but something decent - a T-shirt or tank top with shorts or capri pants. One set is enough for the entire holiday. Two is the maximum.
  • Walking clothes. Something simple and practical, it is advisable to take something that is wrinkle-resistant and, of course, made from natural fabrics - linen or cotton. It can be a trouser suit or a dress - at your discretion. 2-3 sets are enough for any woman. Try to have a light cardigan or jacket in your wardrobe that covers your shoulders, because during walks they most often “burn” in the sun - this is not a pleasant feeling.
  • A nice dress or suit if you plan to visit restaurants or clubs. As practice shows, one is enough. Just don’t take any velvets and silks. An elegant linen outfit is suitable for evening gatherings with a glass of martini.
  • For shoes, take flip-flops or flip-flops for home and the beach, shoes or sandals for walking, and sneakers. You are unlikely to need high heels.
  • Do I need to take a warm kit? More often - yes. In the South it can also be cool in the evenings, so jeans and one thick sweater won't hurt. Linen is better.

In addition to clothes, do not forget a woman’s cosmetic bag, a manicure set, “soap and foam” accessories, a beach towel or blanket (if you are traveling as wild people), sunglasses, personal hygiene products and, of course, protective creams: you won’t get sunburned and have a better tan. will stick.

Men's clothing for seaside holidays

Yes, yes, he also needs to pack his wardrobe. It’s a little simpler here, although the principle is the same - to the beach, to the house, to go out and for the evening.

  • Swimming trunks, or better yet a couple.
  • Headgear, preferably a hat rather than a bandana.
  • Briefs, 3-4 pairs, and two pairs of socks, you won’t need more.
  • T-shirts, tank tops, shirts. Some men prefer to walk around in T-shirts, but the sun doesn’t care who it fry. Therefore, try to convince your husband to also cover his shoulders if he does not want to suffer from sunburn.
  • Shorts or breeches, two pairs, light trousers or jeans. You can take a tracksuit.
  • Shoes: flip-flops and sneakers. If your man is an esthete, add summer shoes or sandals to his wardrobe.
  • And, of course, the essentials - shaving accessories, shampoos, soaps, toothpastes, glasses, an everyday beach bag or backpack that can accommodate a blanket and a bottle of water.

What to wear for a child at sea

If you have a son, we prepare for vacation in the same way as we do for a husband. Two pairs of swim panties, at least 2-3 pairs of shorts, 4-5 T-shirts and shirts, a tracksuit, jeans, a baseball cap.

Collect a girl like a woman, that is, yourself, according to the same principle - beach, walk, evening. Dress or sundress, shorts or capris, T-shirts and blouses, slippers, sandals, sports shoes.

For your baby, take a few small toys, shovels and sand buckets - the best solution. And also a swimming ring or armbands. If a child goes alone (to a camp, for example), then immediately show him what to wear. Arrange a fashion show the day before, dress him and explain what goes with what, and how it is worn. Be sure to convince him to hide his head and apply sunscreen if he doesn’t want to spend the entire holiday in an isolation ward with burns.

A couple of tips

Should a woman take fluffy dresses and bows with her on vacation? Definitely not. They are both hot and impractical. Well, of course, you can take bows, but long ball dresses will be out of place in a beach wardrobe.

The same goes for boys’ suits with “butterflies” - they are not needed at sea. Give each family member a small backpack to hold a water bottle and other personal items. An anti-diarrhea remedy and something for burns might come in handy. Perhaps that's all. Have you forgotten anything? Think, there is still time.
