Caribbean Getaway: What to Wear

The Caribbean is one of those places that you can never get tired of. The beautiful blue waters, the colorful buildings, and your skin glowing from the sun makes for one happy tourist. 

However, packing for a Caribbean getaway can be stressful if you don’t know what to bring! 

Here’s what I suggest:

During the day:

If you’re anything like me, then you spend most of your vacation in a bathing suit. For Caribbean vacations, I think blues and purples are the best for bathing suit colors. They pop and truly stand out. If you are planning on wearing a bathing suit, you will need a cover-up, of course! This could include anything from a casual sundress, to a big t-shirt, to a loose skirt to go over your bathing suit. Don’t forget those flip flops or sandals!

If you are one of those people that spends their days on vacation shopping or sightseeing, then I suggest a completely different outfit. A pair of denim shorts with a cute tank top would be ideal. You can also wear a casual romper (as seen below). Rompers are comfortable but still make it look like you put an effort into choosing your outfit. Another great option would be a sundress! You can never go wrong with a sundress and flip flops.

At night:

Night time in the Caribbean is the best time! It is still warm outside and if you are eating outside, you can get hit with that occasional warm summer breeze. A nice outfit for nighttime would be a two-piece outfit. The two pieces are typically matching but are not connected. This could be shorts and a top or pants and a top. You could also wear a skirt and crop top, or a casual sundress. Anything that flows in the wind and involves different light/bright colors is perfect for the Caribbean! Also, it can get hot, so you want to make sure you are wearing something light. That is why something that flows is perfect! For shoes, I suggest wearing sandals or wedges. Just make sure they are something that you can be comfortable in when walking the streets of the island!

Like I said before, packing for a vacation can be stressful. However, if you know what to bring and just how much, there is no need to stress! I hope this advice helped!
