Hawaii is JUST around the corner!
As I pack and get ready I wanted to share the items that I’m bringing on our trip. Kauai is not the place for super formal outfits or nights out – it’s the most laid back of any island and I’m embracing that for packing! I also know that I wear a fraction of the clothes I bring on vacation, so I’m trying to really pare down what I bring. Here’s what made the cut!
Swimsuits – Black ruffle suit
Shorts – Roxy Oceanside (white and black)
Dresses – Amazon (only $18 – featured here!), black tank dress
Casual tops – Madewell tank, BP t-shirt, Chambray t-shirt
Jacket – I’ll be bringing my trusty Madewell jean jacket!
Workout clothes – Adidas tank, my all-time fav Lululemon shorts
Shoes – comfy sandals, espadrilles
Hats – Brixton Joanna (I’ve worn this so much since I got it! Happy I finally decided to just order it), a baseball hat for hikes
Makeup – Concealer, beauty blender, mascara, highlighter – that’s it! I’m also bringing my everyday face sunscreen – MUST!
Hiking gear – hiking boots, Camelbak (we are bringing 2 so we can stay hydrated on long hikes. SO important!)
Random gear – Kindle, headphones, iPad
Travel outfit – Joggers, tank (love the length!) and my jean jacket. I’m probably going to use this purse as my carryon. Oh and compression socks haha…
There you have it! I cannot wait for our trip and packing just makes me so excited. We actually don’t have that much which means we’ve packed the perfect amount! I am really trying to stop overpacking so I’ve been evaluating what I really need. If you’re like me, you pack a ton of things and wear the same few things day after day. So I’m trying to recognize that now and pack accordingly.
Also wish us luck that we don’t feel much impact from Olivia – what is with these hurricanes hitting Hawaii? I feel like I’ve never heard about it until this year, but maybe I haven’t been paying attention.
And this week just has to be INSANE at work. Wish me luck wrapping everything up and getting it down to a manageable list for my backup! I feel like some stuff is going to explode, but what can you do. I totally understand when people disconnect so I’m going to take advantage of that next week. I might even uninstall Slack!
Ok so there you have it – what I’m packing for Hawaii! Wish us safe travels and I’ll be sure to recap it once we get back!
