20 Chic Vacation Pieces for Your Summer Packing List
Sundresses, swimsuits, and sandals galore!


Welcome to this week's best sale finds from across the web. As a shopping editor, it's my job to scout the best deals from around the internet that meet your budget and suit your style. Every Friday, I share the can't-miss deals I found so that you, too, can be an expert shopper.
I know I'm not the only one knee-deep in preparing their summer travel capsule wardrobe. I have a bachelorette party in a few weeks (plus a trip to the beach planned), so I've been hunting for vacation essentials like summer dresses, comfortable sandals, and a few new bikinis to freshen up my collection. I can't forget trendy summer accessories to tie my vacation outfits together. My search was fruitful as I found on-sale picks from brands like Ray-Ban, St. Agni, J.Crew, Ganni, and more below.
Slide sandals are the comfiest pair of summer shoes you can pack. With their luxe leather and gold hardware, this J.Crew pair will elevate anything you have on, no matter how casual. Save even more with one of our J.Crew promo codes.
This linen dress may be simple, but don't underestimate it. It works for nighttime with strappy heels and piles of jewelry, but it's also great in the daytime with flats and sunglasses. The accessorizing possibilities are endless. Save even more with one of our Gap promo codes.
Nothing says summer like a pair of denim cutoffs. You can throw them on with your bikini top for the beach or dress them up for a casual dinner. No matter how you style them, they'll only get better with wear. Save even more with one of our Shopbop promo codes.
For those who prefer one-piece swimsuits, I suggest this fun find. Features like a high cut on the legs, adjustable crossover straps, and a smoothing stretchy fabric will maximize comfort. Save even more with one of our CUUP promo codes.
As the name suggests, these strappy sandals were made to come with you on your beach vacations. Their minimalist style and wrapped design make for the perfect pair to your mini dresses. Save even more with one of our Tony Bianco promo codes.
This is the kind of dress you can throw on when you're in a rush and still look luxurious. The trendy butter yellow shade will make you feel even more stylish. Save even more with one of our Banana Republic promo codes.
Sure, you could wear a basic ribbed tank with your denim shorts. Or you could opt for this pretty tank to add some visual interest to your look. Save even more with one of our Anthropologie promo codes.
There's a reason Marie Claire considers this find as one of the best linen pants out there. Julia Marzovilla, Marie Claire's Fashion E-Commerce Editor, says they're super soft and easy to style. Save even more with one of our Nordstrom promo codes.
Ganni has been making a case for the return of leopard print and I'm here for it. This printed sundress is so much more fun than the plain black versions I currently have in my closet. Save even more with one of our Farfetch promo codes.
As someone who can't stand in heels for more than a few hours, I'm a big fan of the chunky ones on these sandals. I'm confident these are the best shoes to dance all night in. Save even more with one of our Revolve promo codes.
Every fashion girl knows that a look isn't complete without a pair of sunglasses. With its classic shape, this cult-favorite pair goes with everything in my suitcase. Save even more with one of our Ray-Ban promo codes.
Everyone needs at least one triangle bikini in their swimsuit rotation. The best part about this Cupshe bikini is that it comes in a set (so you only make one purchase!) and you can mix and match the top and bottom sizes for your perfect fit. Save even more with one of our Cupshe promo codes.
When you want to put a lot of effort into getting dressed, a matching set like this is the way to go. Wear it together for dinner one night, then mix and match the separates to maximize space in your suitcase. Save even more with one of our Bloomingdale's promo codes.
A bathing suit cover-up is essential on vacation. This under-$50 find will turn any swimsuit into a full look. Save even more with one of our Nasty Gal promo codes.
Walking barefoot through security sounds like a nightmare, so I always wear comfortable sneakers to the airport. Somehow, I found these trendy sneakers for 50 percent off, so I would snap them up for your summer travels. Save even more with one of our Finish Line promo codes.
Reviews say this suit fits especially well for those with small busts and provides good support great support—and it's super cute. Save even more with one of our Boden promo codes.
This crochet dress looks great no matter how you wear it. Hand-crocheted by artisans in Bali, it took ten days to create. Save even more with one of our Net-a-Porter promo codes.
My jaw dropped when I came across this gorgeous clutch. This is the kind of trendy summer accessory you plan entire outfits around. Save even more with one of our Mytheresa promo codes.
The moment I saw Megan Markle in a backless St. Agni dress, I became obsessed with the minimalist brand. This simple summer dress only further ignites my love for them. Save even more with one of our Moda Operandi promo codes.
Simple and comfortable, these sandals were made for every occasion, making them the perfect shoe to pack along on vacation. I'd argue they would work just as well long after the summer ends, too. Save even more with one of our QVC promo codes.
