Plane ticket? Check. Hotel booked? Check. Sunscreen? Check, check. We've been anxiously anticipating the arrival of our getaway for months now, and we have a few more things left on our to-do-list—like stocking up on vacation-ready accessories that aren't the same-old straw totes. We recommend following the lead of our favorite It girls and thinking outside the box this season, and opting for bright footwear and tie-dye bags. Scroll to get inspired with how fashion girls styled these of-the-moment Charles & Keith looks, and feel free to add them all to your carry-on.
Might we suggest adding a pop of color to your already bright ensemble? We love the way Maria styled this gingham look with bold heels and a neutral bag. Bonus points for the blue gingham head scarf.
Keep it simple while lounging on the beach, by the pool, or on a yacht (if you're so inclined) with a chic one-piece and a timeless tote. This buttery leather circle bag has enough room for your sunscreen, towel and a change of clothes. The beige is a no-brainer, but we're also adding the powder blue to our virtual shopping carts.
I never thought to pair stripes with tie-dye, but I can't say I'm disappointed. This bright bucket bag is on trend for summer (we love the chain detailing as well), and these square-toe heels transcend seasons. Shop below.
Chances are that you already own a polka-dot frock. You may not, however, own strappy sunflower-yellow heels that take your wrap dress from "cute" to "next level." Not feeling the yellow vibe? Don't worry—these heels come in white and black as well.
This entire outfit is bookmarked on our computers. The linen pants and bodysuit keep this look effortless, while the tote and asymmetrical sandals take it up a notch.
