My casual summer capsule wardrobe is assembled! This year, we are moving away from denim heavy capsules, despite the return of denim on denim looks. So, I decided to incorporate shorts this summer which are a bit dressier than my usual denim cut-offs. I am in love with these striped shorts! They elevate a casual look, offering a put together outfit which is still comfortable. Love that!

Summer dresses are also big in my capsule wardrobe this year. I love a lightweight, casual dress which helps keep you cool during the warm summer months.

For my summer capsule wardrobe, I pulled a few items from my spring capsule and lighted things up with short sleeves, summer dresses, and dressy shorts. These looks can be dressed up or down with footwear and handbags. Love!

The summer season is upon us, this means travel plans are underway! One of the big things to keep stocked and ready to go is a tsa approved beauty bag. You don’t want to be caught needing beauty products in travel sizes the day you are packing for a big trip!

I keep my travel beauty bag ready for air travel at all times. As soon as something runs out, I replace it so my beauty bag is ready for my next plane trip. If you are traveling by car you may not need tsa approved travel bottles, but the plus side is that they take up less space in your luggage! Love that!

This beauty bag is the perfect size for storing all of your tsa approved, under 3.4 oz bottles. You can see my full review here. It has a place for brushes, and a few handy pockets which can keep your little travel bottles organized.

I don’t travel with liquid perfume, so scented body cream is my travel fragrance. It also doubles as a way to wear fragrance as well as moisturize your skin after a drying plane ride, and over-airconditioned hotel room. Scented body cream is a must-have in my book! This tsa approved bottle is perfect for a vacation.

Skin care is important while traveling since the change in climate from your hometown can wreak havoc on your skin. I love ReVive skin care products since they always keep my skin even and in check. I highly recommend their travel kit pictured above!

Also, don’t forget to throw a good, old-fashioned Chapstick in your beauty bag. You will be thankful you have it on your trip; especially if you travel by plane!

Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy your vacation!
