Spring Break Style Guide: Outfits for Your Beach Getaway
Spring has (almost) sprung! And with the new season comes the long-awaited break that sees students jumping into cars, trains, and planes to head home or to explore new destinations. For those in the latter group, many spring vacations involve trips to sunny, tropical paradises as a much-needed escape from the lingering chill of winter.
Whether you’re lounging on the beach, touring coastal towns, or dancing the night away at a beachside bar, having the perfect outfit is key to making the most out of your getaway. So get your packing list ready, because we got you covered with the most stylish looks for every occasion.
Day 1: Out & About
The first day of your beach vacay calls for an outfit suited for adventure and exploration. Strut down the boardwalk in a frilly top with micro shorts or a maxi skirt. To fully embrace your island-girl energy, look for pieces in tropical colors and fun prints for a playful, eclectic touch. Chunky, statement accessories along with comfortable sandals are key to navigating the day in style.

Day 2: Island-Hopping
Whether you’re spending the day swimming, island-hopping, cruising on a boat, or simply relaxing under the sun, a breezy cover-up is all you need to tie your beach look together. Even better? Many of these items are timeless staples you likely already have in your closet. Consider pairing your bikini with linen pants or jorts for a cool and casual vibe, or throw on a classic button-up or crochet dress for effortless sophistication. Don’t forget to carry a tote with all your seaside essentials—including a pair of sunnies and a baseball cap or headscarf to beat the heat—and you’re all set!

Day 3: Beachside Dinner
Splashing about under the sun can be exhausting, so what better way to unwind and end the day than with a beachside dinner? After capturing some much-needed sunset photos, head to a waterfront restaurant in a sleek, bodycon dress or a chic, flowy top paired with a statement maxi skirt. Strappy sandals and delicate gold accessories are perfect choices for finishing off a glowy evening look.

Enjoying the local nightlife is all about the glitz and glamour.

Final Day: Bidding Farewell
For your final day, opt for a cozy, laidback get-up that will take you from check-out to your journey home stress-free. Start your morning with a stroll along the shore in airy fabrics, before savoring breakfast at a local cafe. Pair a slouchy top with soft crochet shorts or relaxed, baggy trousers for an undone, model-off-duty look. We recommend neutral tones and light jewelry for utmost comfort and simplicity.
