A once hated task, I now quite enjoy packing. I'm sure much of that is thanks to blogging, as chronicling looks can really only improve one's ability to outfit plan in a pinch. It's especially exciting to pack a bag in freezing temperatures when you're headed to sun and sand. Sigh, I already forget what it's like to step outside and be hit with a suffocating blanket of heat and tropical breeze. The only thing that greets me when I open the front door these days is the freaky neighbourhood cat (who was for some reason, shaved completely except for its head and paws) and a feeling that can only be compared to venturing inside of a freezer. I would know what that's like because you better believe I worked at McDonald's back in the day! Where was I? Right, the outfits. On a vacation, I'm all about taking the minimum and being able to remix. Staples, such as these neutral flat sandals and Michael Kors tote bag are a must bring! It's so fun to get dressed up every evening at the resort. Very Downton Abbey-style costume changes and I dig it.
You must have had such a great time, Alicia! I am dying over both these looks, especially that second dress. And that tote bag is so perfect for sand & sun!

Your post is making me get so excited for Maui. I just have 21 days to go until sun and relaxation. I can't wait! Thanks for the reminder to not pack every piece of summer clothing I own;)

Very cute red shorts, especially with that top and yellow bag. Usually I don't like yellow and red combos, but it works here
