Planning your wardrobe for vacation should not be a stressful endeavor no matter where you are going. Luckily, packing for the beach and tropical areas is pretty smooth sailing. If you are planning a trip to Turks & Caicos anytime soon, I have gathered a couple photos of what the street style there looks like – besides sexy little bikinis and cover-ups – but we’ll include those as well.

Natalie from Westlake, California is sporting some cut-off white jean shorts with a neon crotchet top over her bikini. Then to finish off the look, she added a headwrap, which is great to tame your hair, and a pair of sunnies. This is a typical look I saw on the island and also wore myself. It’s comfortable and flattering to every body type.

What is your beach must-have?

“Sunscreen, sunglasses and my cut off shorts!”

What I wore: I wore this red maxi which cinches around the waist to add some shape. Maxis are ALWAYS a must for vacay. And a hat is always a good idea to protect your face from the harsh rays.

And then for the guys – the most important items to bring are easily your sunglasses and watch. That’s just how it is. Simple and sexy.
