1. Bring On the Vacation Vibes!
Ah, summertime. What’s the first thing you think of? Vacation! From daydreaming of turquoise waters, island hopping, and outdoor adventures to enjoying a spa day in the comfort of your own home – it’s time to bring on the vacation vibes.
Let’s start by unlocking your creativity. Sure, the idea of penthouse suite lounging or beachside lounging with a gorgeous view sounds lovely, but that’s not the only way to bring on the feels. Here’s a few off the cuff ideas to help spark your imagination:
- Explore your city like a tourist – take a picture with the statue in the park with your VSCO camera and find a popular landmark to feature in your 2020 scrapbook.
- Pop up movie night – clear your weekend schedule and treat yourself & friends to an outdoor extravaganza complete with popcorn and pillows.
- Break a sweat – what better time to embrace the great outdoors than summer? Put on your most festive athleisure, grab a pack of waters, and make your way to the nearest hiking trail.
Trust us, bringing in the summer vibes doesn’t require over-the-top planning. All it takes is a little bit of creativity – and a lot of sun – to get those feel-good vacation vibes going.

Heading out for a luxurious resort vacation? Don’t forget your chic and stylish wardrobe! Creating your own unique look for a perfect photo-op on the beachfront or around the pool is attainable with these inspiring pieces. You’ll find something here that will make every moment of your vacation unforgettable.
- Flowy Dresses: From the simplistic wrap-design to more elaborate tribal-style embroidery, a floaty dress screams resort beauty. Let the airy fabrics make your movement graceful and accentuate your sun-kissed silhouette.
- Palm Prints: Trees, floral motifs and palm fronds bring verdant tones to your beach getaway. Whether you opt for a chic silk blouse or a mini dress that skirts above the ankles, a pattern of palms will make a statement.
- Safari Separates: Get outdoorsy with safari-inspired rompers and coordinated tops and bottoms. Think robust canvas and lightweight linen in dusky colors and avoid the tourist cliche with tasteful natural tones.

3. Styling Tips to Take You from Beach to Brunch
From the sand to the streets, a beach-to-brunch transition can be the easiest, most stylish way to keep on going during a long summer day. Here are some styling tips and tricks to go from beach vibes to brunch-ready without having to take many clothing changes.
The main styling focus should be in transition pieces – invest in items like sundresses, smock tops, and blazers that best encapsulate both beach and city chic, while accent pieces like sunglasses, bags, and statement jewellery can really help bring together the look.
- Jewellery Statement Pieces: Dangle earrings and statement necklaces can be the difference between a basic summer dress and a real showstopper.
- Fashion Footwear: A pair of sandals or espadrilles can go a long way in tying such a look together.
- Timeless Blazers: An open blazer paired with a light dress is a sure-fire way to nail that smart-casual brunch look.
Ultimately, beach-to-brunch styling is all about experimenting with light fabrics, neutral colours, and statement pieces, to bring together the two worlds of a long-lasting summer day.
