Resort-worthy styles for your next vacation
Stephanie Maida for PureWow

Featuring a crochet hem and figure-hugging fit, this lightweight maxi is perfect for throwing on over your swimsuit for lunch by the beach.

Between their relaxed fit and airy linen construction, these pull-on pants will keep you feeling (and looking) cool on your travels.

Our favorite Birkenstock sandals now come with the chicest raffia upper. But don't worry, they have the same suede-lined contoured footbed we all know and love.

PureWow editors love Boden swimsuits for their bright colors and flattering fits, and we could totally see this V-neck one-piece becoming our new go-to for 2026.

This quilted cotton bag might be the cutest way to pack your cosmetics—and dare we say it's worthy of carrying as a clutch on its own?

Eyelet cutouts and nautical stripes take this fan-favorite silhouette to vacation-ready new heights, while the signature smocked waistband ensures you can breathe easy at the buffet.

A matching set is the workhorse of your suitcase, and you're bound to reach for this laidback, cotton fit on repeat as you head to the beach, brunch and airport.

Offering stylish sun protection on the go, this straw hat was made to be packed, so it won't get all scrunched up after a stint in your carry-on.

Pair this preppy mesh polo top with the matching pants for an easy, breezy, beachside look you'll want to snap a ton of pics in.

And for a lazy day going from the pool to the bar and back again? This adorable tank coverup made from soft cotton terrycloth.

Equal parts fun and fashionable, buyers swear these "grownup" jelly sandals are way more comfortable than the ones we wore in the '90s. 

Perfect for a destination wedding or fancy dinner, this flowy floral dress—complete with a scarf and belt detail—is the definition of island elegance.
