CUTE SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS FOR SUMMER ON THE BEACH

Who doesn’t love lazy days spent on the beach? Warmed by the rays, refreshed by the sea, it’s time to kick back and relax.

From morning swims to sultry afternoons, these are summer vacation outfits for the beach that will have you shining beach front and beyond.

Whether you favour crisp white or chic black, airy layers or cinched silhouette, we have all the possibilities for your new summer beach vacation wardrobe right here.

1 CROCHET BIKINI WITH OVERSIZED SHIRT AND HEADBAND

Let’s start with the basics – a crochet bikini that stands out is an absolute must for summer 2024. Overhaul last year’s beach look by styling your favourite bikini with a silk shirt and a headband. Soak up the energy in white and get ready to shine. It’s time for maximum enjoyment.

The day will breeze by in airy garments that have you looking chic and collected. Go for lightweight materials like silk, cotton or linen.

2 BLACK SHIRT OVER BLACK SWIMSUIT AND BLACK SANDALS WITH BLACK RAFFIA COWBOY HAT

There is a reason why black monochrome looks so good framed against the stunning blue sea. For swimwear options, go with styles that have an interesting twist, like a halterneck, they will really elevate your beach look.

3 BIKINI WITH LINEN SHORTS AND SUNHAT

Match the sand with an edit of relaxed pieces for a picnic on the beach. We love playful crop tops paired with linen shorts, a sunhat and flats.

We adore the vivacious charm of the one-shoulder flounce bikini top that not only embraces the beach vibe but also adds a touch of flirtatious elegance. Its asymmetrical design captures the playful essence of the ocean’s waves, while the flounce detailing dances with the coastal breeze.

Complementing the bikini top, the choice of linen shorts is genius. The lightweight and breathable fabric ensures you stay cool even under the sun’. They’ll keep you cool as you settle onto the picnic blanket, their relaxed silhouette allowing you to move effortlessly while indulging in beach games or savoring delicious treats.

4 WHITE CROP TOP WITH WHITE SHORTS AND BLACK FLAT MULES WITH WIDE-BRIM HAT

A pair of shorts takes you everywhere. Pair with a crochet bikini for the beach, a shirt for the beach bar or with a crop top and flats when exploring the old town. I like to wear my designer falt mules – Malone Souliers flat mules that look stunning wherever I go.

Feel glorious under the sun with tailored shorts and a crop top that put you in an exuberant mood. Meanwhile, tailored shorts will have you ready for some upbeat fun at the beach bar.

5 STRIPED DRESS WITH SLIDES AND A BASKET BAG

When transitioning between the beach and the city, the most stylish cover-ups are the simplest. A striped dress in pale shades will look delightful in the breeze, whereas slides and a basket bag are absolute classics with chic appeal.

6 SLIP LINEN DRESS WITH SANDALS

As the sun goes down and golden hour arrives, slip into an outfit with subtle shimmer. I like the contrast of the shimmer shoes to a black linen dress.

Btw, I have this linen dress in pink. And I love it so much. It actually (almost) fits me! Worry not, this doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t fit you. It has side bow fastening, which allows you to adjust the size of the bustier. I need to tighten it strong, but you can tie it more loosely if you have a larger bust or wider chest.

7 WHITE SHIRT DRESS AND SANDALS

Start the day right with a hotel brunch in a classy hotel brunch outfit. Think white shirt dress and metallic sandals for a touch of glamour as you brunch by the beach.

OLD MONEY SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS FOR SAILING

Catch the rays in styles designed for sunshine days at the sea. From old money nautical styles to warming colours of yellow and pink, you will look chic and trendy.

8 STRIPED SWEATER ON SHOULDERS OVER NAVY SHIRT WITH WHITE TAILORED SHORTS AND LOW SNEAKERS

FASHIONABLE SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS FOR YACHT

If you put summer, yacht, sea, music, sun and fun together, you invariably get a flirty dress in a trendy silhouette. Throw away your inhibitions and try on these fashionable summer vacation outfits for a yacht.

9 MINI HALTERNECK SILVER DRESS WITH SANDALS

When the music calls calling, dance the night away in slinky, figure-hugging numbers. And channel your inner Barbie girl with a mini silver dress and sandals. This is the best yacht party outfit of the season!

10 SHIRT DRESS WITH SANDALS

When going for lunch in the town, we think some shirt dress is the best. Elegantly compact, it is easy and lightweight to bring and even easier to slip into. Pair it with some strappy sandals and a fresh pedicure and get ready for your summer fling.

TRENDY SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS FOR SHOPPING VACATION IN EUROPE

Swapping sea for a store this summer to build the best fall winter capsule wardrobe yet? If you said yes, make sure you don’t overpack!

11 MINI HALTERNECK DRESS WITH SANDAL MULES

It’s nice to dress up for a shopping vacation, but at the same time, your luggage space is at a premium. Save the luggage space and pack only a little black dress.

Paired with the most comfortable sandal mules yet, a little black dress will take you to any store.

12 PINK TANK TOP WITH WIDE-LEG PANTS AND SANDAL MULES

A pink tank top with light wide-leg pants will be perfect for a shopping vacation in Italy.

CHIC SUMMER LAKE COMO VACATION OUTFITS FOR LAKE VACATION

Mentioning Italy, here are some cute summer Lake Como vacation outfits you need to try if you are going to Lake Como this summer.

13 BARBIECORE PINK BIKINI WITH FANCY SANDALS

Explore new possibilities with mini silhouettes and bright colours when you touch down in Italy. A Barbie bikini or a pink mini dress will keep things cute and playful as you enjoy your time on a boat.

Btw, this Mango pink linen dress runs small. Like very small. Size 0 fits me almost perfectly.

14 LEOPARD BIKINI WITH NAVY SHORTS AND HEADBAND

Step forward in Italian No.1 favourite print that vibrates with positive vides. Build up the fun with headbands and sunhats, whilst navy shorts set the scene for your time in the sun. POV Summer by Lake Como means temperatures above 32°C.

Btw, you will find me close to Lake Como in the video below.

15 SHORT SLEEVE KNITTED TOP WITH SHORTS AND SNEAKERS WITH A BUCKET HAT

If you are looking for more cool appeal, why not pair a short sleeve knitted top with color striking shorts and sneakers with a vibrant colorful hat? You are in Italy! Pov or somewhere in central Europe where colors are ok. I’m actually in the Alps.

CASUAL SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS 2024 FOR SUMMER IN THE MOUNTAINS

Especially if you are going to the mountains!

16 VARSITY JACKET WITH LEGGINGS AND HIKING BOOTS

We know it’s a cliché, but you never want to wear dark colours in the mountains. Prepare for your next hike with an injection of uplifting colour tones. From pink to grey, you will be painting a marvellous picture this summer.

CAPSULE SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS FOR SPA VACATION

Planning for a last-minute spa weekend in the Alps to relax after the hike? We are ready with all the essentials you will need for a few days at the spa.

17 OVERSIZED CARDIGAN WITH KNITTED SHORTS AND SLIDES

Look for a bit of stretch in pieces that are travel friendly but still look chic. Pieces that multi-task conserve valuable space when it’s hand baggage only.

18 BATHROBE WITH SAUNA TOWEL AND SLIPPERS

Comfort is key when the whole point is to relax. Get a bathrobe, spa slippers and a sauna towel to make sure you don’t feel out of place as you enter the spa and sauna.

19 KNIT DRESS WITH POINTY FLATS

Always take one smart dress and precious hair accessories for nice dinners or evening events that might come up following a day of relaxation. Try wrinkle-free knit dresses that save you time and hassle with the added benefit of giving you a whole look in one.

FANCY SUMMER VACATION OUTFITS FOR SUMMER IN THE COUNTRYSIDE

If you are planning a countryside retreat, you might want to keep your edit tight with multi-tasking pieces that do it all and enjoy the ease of travelling light as you escape from the noise of everyday life.

20 NAVY FLORAL WRAP DRESS WITH ESPADRILLES

Dress like French and enjoy your summer vacation in the province wearing nothing but a simple wrap dress and black espadrilles.

21 POLO SHIRT WITH BLACK LEGGINGS AND RIDING BOOTS

Chic and practical, enjoy the best of both worlds in a fashionable equestrian look as you go for a morning ride.

Btw I shop for my full-seat breeches at Krämer Pferdesport. But I wasn’t able to add their breeches to the product gallery below, so I added an alternative – suitable only for good riders, though.

22 LINEN SET WITH SUNHAT

Sensible options for day don’t have to mean boring basics.

A cute co-ord set is our top choice for a picnic in the countryside. With suitcase space being limited, it’s also the smartest option to pack – not only does it make a statement when worn together, you can easily mix and match with other separates to create a variety of looks.

23 LITTLE RED DRESS WITH CUT-OUT ANKLE BOOTS

For summer vacation in the vineyard, get a pretty dress and ankle boots.

A little red dress will mirror the rich tones of ripening grapes, seamlessly integrating you with the picturesque landscape.

Imagine rows of lush grapevines, heavy with clusters of ripening fruit, stretching toward the horizon. The leaves rustle in the gentle breeze, creating a soothing melody that complements the vibrant hues of green and gold. The air is scented with a delicate blend of earthiness and sweetness—a fragrance unique to vineyards during this time of year.

To complement your chosen red dress, put on the Chloé Rylee ankle boots that make a bold statement. With their fusion of rugged charm and high-fashion sensibilities, these ankle boots add an unexpected edge to your vineyard vacation outfit. As you traverse the vineyard’s grounds, the boots offer stability and comfort, allowing you to wander confidently between rows of vines and through charming winery spaces. I tested them myself! I can run uphill and downhill in my Chloé Rylee boots, even though walking uphill in between the rows demands physical effort.
