I got back from Palm Beach a few weeks ago and, as expected, wore the same handful of things on repeat. There were outfits I was convinced I'd wear, pieces that never left the suitcase, and a few items that earned their spot immediately. So I thought it would be fun to break down what actually made the cut.
Let’s get into it.
The style of this dress is so chic and the linen material is fully lined so we aren’t worried about this being see-through. I took a small (runs TTS).
Palm Beach was hot, but restaurants still believe in aggressive air conditioning. This sweater came with me everywhere. I have it in cream and keep debating the yellow.
The number of messages I got asking if this was Dôen made me laugh. It's Amazon, under $30, and honestly this set looks much more expensive than it has any right to.
One thing about me: if I find a good sandal on vacation, I'm wearing it into the ground. This pair worked with everything and made every outfit look a little more polished.
This set was one of my favorite outfits from the trip. The color, the fit, the fact that it's currently on sale...all very compelling arguments.. It’s chic, elevated, and on sale right now. I reached for a small in the vest and skirt.
I swear every single one of my friends showed up to Palm Beach with these shoes. By the end of the trip, we were literally in the Staud store buying additional colors. They're that good.
Another Amazon set that looks more expensive than it actually is. 100% cotton and one of those “easy to reach for” outfits.
My favorite pair of sunglasses from the trip. They have a slightly oversized frame without being too much.
This bikini top gives pretty close to full coverage, which I appreciate. I have it paired with my favorite high waisted bottoms (wearing size medium - I always size up in this brand)
This made every swimsuit look better. People will be guessing it’s Pucci.
Vacation Ashley loves an accessory. This necklace was the easiest way to make a simple white dress feel a little more fun.
Oversized, chic, and excellent at hiding evidence of a late dinner.
I bought this in-store and immediately knew it was coming home with me.
I purchased this last summer when we were in St. Tropez and I carry it far more than I expected. My only complaint is it doesn’t fit my phone with the Ossa strap. There’s a few available on resell sites that might be worth checking out if you are interested!
I love a matching moment, and this set was one of my favorites from the trip. The shape is great and the coordinating sarong makes it feel very pulled together with minimal effort. The top has a great shape (but size up, I am in a large! It runs really small) and I went with the high-waisted bottoms (also wearing a large).
This tote bag holds all the essentials + more. Love that it packs totally flat.
This nightgown always comes on vacation with me. It’s 100% cotton lightweight and easy to pack. Comes in several patterns.
I’ve never used this brand before, but I ran across it and love it! I think the CR is still my fave but this was fun to try. It removes makeup and leaves my skin feeling clean and bright.
