Sharing a look at what I packed for Miami! We had mild weather for South Florida – probably the nicest weather we’ve ever experienced in Florida! I packed a bunch of my favorite tank tops and shorts – many the same style just in multiple colors.
Outfits
I’ll link everything I wore that’s still available but here are a few style notes. I think the most flattering tanks are the Citizens of Humanity Isabel Tank (runs TTS) and the Reformation Julia Top (runs small, I’m usually an XS but sized up to a Medium). My loose gauzey button down from Rails remains a closet staple perfect for the beach.
For beach bags I really love the Naghedi St. Barths Totes (I have the medium size). Durable, sturdy, flexible and easy to clean. I also brought along my YSL Panier Basket (size is the small variation) for a beach bag and Prada Raffia Tote.
For shoes I wore in my new Celine Low Top Sneakers (unboxing here) and absolutely love them. I sized down as they recommended (I’m usually a size 6.5 and bought the Celine in a size 6) and they’re a great fit, super comfortable, no break in required. I also brought along my Veja Venturi Sneakers which I still really love too.
I’ve really grown to love the HunzaG swimsuits. The Domino One-Piece is a great one I find myself wearing the most. It doubles as a top too when you add shorts or a skirt.

Skincare and Hair Care
I was very impressed with myself that I kept my skincare and hair care packing to a minimum this trip! I stuck with the basics with one in each category. This trip I used everything I packed. The R+Co Dart Pomade Stick is an essential for flyaways and I wish it would stay in stock. I keep checking for it multiple places like Amazon, Neimans, Saks etc. If you can’t find it the Ouai Matte Pomade is also very good.
I almost always pack my Chanel CC Cream with me (it’s my favorite) but this time I decided to try a few different things. I really like the Charlotte Tilbury Invisible UV Flawless Primer for a sunscreen.
For perfume I didn’t pack anything with me but purchased a few on my trip including Celine Parade and Loewe Eclectic which I think are going to be new favorites for the upcoming year.
Of course I had to pack my ghd Platinum Plus Styler which is a hair care essential for smooth hair. Helps me get ready in under 15 minutes for hair styling!

Travel Makeup Picks
I did a makeup packing reel on Instagram if you want to see if all in action. I am an over packer when it comes to makeup but tried to limit myself to 1-2 things in each category. I used everything I packed on this trip so I think I packed just the right amount! The only thing I forgot was a beautyblender sponge and foundation brush. I stopped by Sephora to pick up a beautyblender because I discovered I can’t live without one, lol.
