Lately, it seems all of my friends have planned some sort of spring warm weather getaway – some are going to Cuba (!!!), some to Africa, some simply staying within the US to warmer climates. No matter where your spring travels may take you, it’s always smart to save a little cash on your outfit picks. I rounded up 10 warm weather getaway must haves all under $25 (plus a couple extra beauty items) to make sure you look awesome on a budget. Get your suitcase ready… here we go!
Inspired by this boho vibe, many of my picks channel a similar vibe! Several of these items are sold out, but I’m linking similar: TopShop Dress (similar here); Panacea Earrings (here); Black Fedora Hat (similar here); Rose Gold Metallic Block Heel Sandals (similar here); Hair Extensions by Luxy Hair (get $5 off your order using BRIGHTERDARLING5 at checkout); Lips by Charlotte Tilbury – Iconic Nude Lip Cheat, Nude Kate Lipstick
I stumbled across this website recently, SheIn.com, which has amazingly affordable, insanely trendy styles and although it reminded me of other affordable retailers, I REALLY appreciated their return policy. So often, with these affordable sites, sizes can vary so it’s hard to know what will fit right and you may have to try multiple sizes in each piece. SheIn has a no questions asked policy and I can’t wait for my first order to arrive. Here are some of my top picks for warm weather getaway essentials under $25!
From top to bottom, L to R: multi-colored mini bag | fedora hat | cuff bracelet | sheer swim cover-up | polka-dot makeup bag | smocked maxi dress | striped button-down | floral wrap dress | gray cut-out sweater | white ruffle dress
I’m really loving dresses again this season. They’re just so easy! You can’t go wrong with a cutout gray sweater to throw over anything if it gets chilly at night, and the hat is a quintessential travel item. Once you find the one that fits you best, you’ll fall in love! I also love traveling with an efficient makeup bag and this one is perfect with the brush holders included.
As for beauty items, you MUST try Charlotte Tilbury’s Super Model Body! It is a transfer-resistant gorgeous Gisele-in-a-bottle glow that provides a slimming and highlighting effect. Apply down the center of the legs, shoulders, and collarbone and be prepared to get some extra attention 😉 For on-the-go, effortlessly polished hair, I’ve been loving my amika straightening brush. It smooths my hair just enough to maintain just-blown-out volume yet keeps it from looking like a frizzy mess.
