Packing for a vacation has always been one of my best procrastination moves. I shove things in my bag like I'm being timed and cross my fingers it will all make sense in the end. I've learned just recently that it doesn't work when your left with wearing the same shirt for a few days or freezing because you've forgotten a jacket. This is a classic Lauren behavior. I'd like to pronounce to everyone, that this vacation will be different, after all I'm growing up, remember? I've never felt so in need of a vacation and because of this, I spend my nights daydreaming and preparing lists in my head of what to pack. Here's what my crazy mind has come up with so far!
- SUNSCREEN! I'm a ginger which means that sunscreen is essential. COOLA is my favorite sunscreen, it's light, refreshing and good for your skin...love their sunscreen chap stick as well.
2. FRAGRANCE! My mom actually started this tradition since I was young and it's brillant. People have an amazing way of smelling a scent and being brought back to that particular time in our lives. For all my vacations, I chose a new scent and it holds memories. This trip I choose Bobbi Brown's Beach.
3. BEACH TOWEL: I came across a really cute Anthro beach towel which I couldn't pass on.
4. BATHING SUITS: I'm really into wrap bathing suits in a blue tones (imagine that!), cut outs as well as tribal print bathing suits. Here are a couple of my favorites.
6. BEACHY CLOTHING: Vacations are all about staying comfortable yet fashionable. These looks are effortless and can be thrown on over a bathing suit and can translate from day to night with a couple simple adjustments.
7. HATS & SUNNIES! you can't forget to protect those precious eyes and face from the sun.

I'm loving the hand dipped yellow straw hat as well as the new 'Erika' Ray-Ban sunglasses.
