Style guide for sunny adventures

For many of us, packing our suitcase and jetting off on an outdoorsy adventure is a daydream stuck on repeat throughout the workweek. If you’re able to tick a destination off your bucket list this summer, having your style quotient on a point will make those travel highlights on Instagram even more eye-pleasing. While such a much-needed break might be a mood booster, it’s imperative to keep your travel style on point to make a statement on the go. Here’s a must-pack guide for summer destinations replete with ready to wear clothes, whether you’re taking a tropical plunge, beach escape, exploring a quaint city, or going for a road trip. 

Little Breezy Dresses

A flouncy ready to wear dress could be a stalwart of both summer and vacation dressing. Take the style quotient a notch up, shaking it up with an unexpected silhouette. These flirty numbers by Saaksha & Kinni and Mandira Wirk offer a refreshing vibe through kaleidoscopic colours and playful cuts.

Multi-Functional Co-Ords

The multi-tasking co-ordinates have garnered a cult following for vacations. Why? Because the pairings never fail to deliver a well-heeled appeal. They’re also great add-ons alongside your go-to separates. The ready to wear co-ord sets by Rishi & Vibhuti make for eye-catching yet effortless overalls that require little in the way of styling. For a minimalistic aesthetic, invest in trans-seasonal sets from Sobariko.

Twirl-Ready Maxi Dresses

Few outfits can influence the same sense of wanderlust as elegantly as a printed maxi dress. This season, make a statement in a number of flowing silhouettes ranging from minimal to exuberant. Sobariko’s summer number will help you embrace your radiance against sun-kissed skin. Saaksha & Kinni is also the go-to for heart-stirring prints, offering vacation staples you’ll reach for time and again.

Chic Shorts 

A pair of ready to wear shorts offer the perfect playful vibe for the summers; righteously high-priced for their infinite versatility. You can also opt for knee-length styles to pair with your crop blouses to boast a practical and playful attitude while exploring the city. Place your bids on the off-beat feel of these picks from Ranna Gill and THE IASO.

Laidback Pants 

Wide-leg pants are getting the final word in summer dressing, making a remarkable addition to every jetsetter’s suitcase. Count on a pair of twill trousers for an effortless day-to-night look. For utilitarian styling, go for a pair of silk pants from Merakus to make a failsafe addition to your outfit that works just as well for city breaks as it does on the beach.

All-Rounder Loungewear

Ready to wear loungewear from PS Pret by Payal Singhal can be relied upon to imbue brightness in cosy, easy fabrics, and this printed jogger pant set is a case in point. Made from crepe and ribbed fabric and patterns, this jogger set by Chhavvi Aggarwal is perfect for a lazy day spent at the resort with a dash of quirkiness.

Overlayers

A light layering piece is a weatherproof vacation staple, suited particularly to transition into ever-changing forecasts at tropical destinations. This vibrant version by Wendell Rodricks comes in a colour-blocked pattern to instantly dial up your basics. Wispy overlays are both practical and pretty for sunny days spent exploring seaside towns. 

Poolside Head-Turners

No one takes poolside dressing to new levels quite like Dash and Dot. The unconventional cuts and elements draw inspiration from all things elegant, making it perfect for someone looking for comfort-chic designs. For a swimsuit infused with flower power, turn to Nautanky by Nilesh Parasher, which promises to deliver an impact.

Sweet Sliders

A playful and comfy pair of slip-ons are the calling card of the holiday season. The selection of bright slip-ons from Around Always has become a cult favourite of avid travellers and women who are always on the go. Even the faux leather sliders from Tiesta are having a moment with their low-key elegance and laid-back feel.
