Quick weekend getaways are part of the summertime fun, and I have a checklist and routine of the items that I generally include, sometimes keeping a pre-packed bag ready to roll for a last-minute trip! Here’s a break down of some reliable summertime go-tos when making a quick escape!
(From left to right): A sturdy bag that can accommodate as much or as little weight as you desire is a must (Liz Claiborne bag); a dress that can work in day and evening and won’t wrinkle is a must (dress by Persifor); a straw hat for the beach or mid-day strolls is important to protect the face and scalp from the sun (hat by Hat Attack); a chic, sleek one-piece bathing suit is easy to wear and pack (Norma Kamali one piece); and shorts with pockets that can be beachwear, workout wear, or sleepwear are extremely helpful (shorts by Puma).

From our friends at thefind.com:
Move over, leopard – there’s a new king of the fashion jungle! Tiger prints are slowly but surely sneaking their way back into the world of acceptable stylish animal prints, after a couple decades of being banished to the land of tacky fads. Leopard print has surely made its comeback in recent years, and tiger print is destined to do the same! Not convinced enough to splurge on a head-to-toe striped ensemble? Start relatively smaller with a statement-making tiger print bag. From compact clutches to full-size shopper totes, plus luxe printed calf-hair textures, plenty of our favorite designers are walking on the wild side with tiger-printed accessories!

The Resort 2013 Collection from Alexander Wang is soon going to be what every girl will be coveting. From the ribbed knit sweaters to the oversized trousers, Wang has once again designed a collection that oozes downtown cool with modern and grunge-y twists. For resort, Wang lightened things up a bit with less leather and lacquered pieces, in favor of lighter colors and sheer dresses. Of course in typical Wang fashion, most of the pieces are black and not for the faint of fashion heart. Wang delivers minimalist-chic with a sexy tough-girl edge once again.
