Would you believe me if I told you I only packed a carry-on suitcase for our Australia trip? And half of that was full of James’ stuff.

Granted, it’s way easier to pack light during warm weather trips than it is for colder destinations. But this time around, I took a more simplified approach to my packing. I decided I wasn’t going to try and jam pack a million outfits and try to shoot them all on our vacation (something I’ve had a tendency to do in the past, which tends to drive James nuts). So for this trip, I relied on easy dresses like this white ladder trim dress, this navy tie-front dress and this striped off the shoulder dress. I lived in these cutoff denim shorts which you saw in yesterday’s post and rotated through different tops like this blush crop top, this ribbed swing tank and my favorite cactus shirt. I also only packed these sandals (very comfy!), a pair of white sneakers and simple flip flops for the beach. I even forgot to bring accessories – that’s how much of a minimal mindset I was in when planning our Australia trip!

I’ll have to admit, as a serial overpacker, it felt pretty liberating to have limited options available while on vacation. I’m the kind of person that looks in my closet every morning and feels like I have nothing to wear, but really I’m just feeling overwhelmed by options (decision paralysis – it’s a thing!). Instead, thoughtfully planning out exactly what I was going to pack made my decision making process much easier and allowed me to enjoy my vacation even more.

Are you an overpacker or a minimalist? Let me know in the comments section below!

Blush Pink Pleated Maxi Dress (on sale for $96!) / Stone Pendant Necklace / Chloe ‘Mini Drew’ Crossbody Bag / Nude Ankle Strap Heels / Smashbox Lipstick in ‘Safe Word’

You know that feeling when you find the perfect dress, only to discover that it also has pockets?! Best feeling in the world.

And this beautiful blush number is one of those make-your-heart-flutter kind of dresses. I wore it to a wedding a few weekends ago in Phoenix. It was a last minute find on Revolve and also happened to be on sale! I immediately fell in love with it because of the deep plunge v-neck, the pretty pink shade and the pleats, which add a little layer of luxury to it. It’s technically supposed to hit at a tea length, but since I’m 5’2″, it’s more of a maxi on me – which I think is perfect! For reference, I’m wearing a size XS.

Side note: It actually has a built-in choker to it (you can see how it’s supposed to be worn here), but I thought it kind took away from the simplicity of the deep v, so I tucked it behind my neck and let the very open chest do all the talking. If you’re a guest at a wedding, or a bridesmaid, or have any special occasion coming up in your life, I highly recommend this dress! It’s amazing quality!

P.S. You might also like this insanely gorgeous floral dress as another wedding guest option.
