I'm a Fashion Editor, and I Told My Friend to Try These 6 Chic Outfits During Her European Vacation

As a fashion editor, I'm the person my friends come to for style advice. Recently, a friend asked me to give her some versatile shopping recommendations for her upcoming European vacation. For the ultimate vacation dressing inspiration, I utilized amazing Instagram outfits I've loved recently and paired them with seriously good online retail picks. Because I stay up-to-date on the latest collection drops and new arrivals, I had plenty of options ready to go. I know we're all hoping to get away for a little bit, so I've included my recommendations for you all to shop as well.
Whether you're relaxing in the Parisian countryside, sipping wine on the Amalfi Coast, or trotting around London this summer, I've got something perfect for you ahead. Keep scrolling to uncover the ultimate leisure dressing inspiration and even more vacation-ready picks.
Look #1
Whether you're in a big city or by the beach, this breezy ensemble is perfect for summertime exploring. The all-white works well to combat the heat while also making the outfit appear seamless.
Look #2
Buttery yellow has been trending so much lately. This lovely hue will definitely be everywhere this summer. I especially love the sweetheart neckline and simple heels.
Look #3
Denim shorts have always been a summer staple. This season, try a longer pair. The style also goes well with everything from voluminous blouses to baby tees.
Look #4
Once spring hits, all the sundresses come out. The easy yet vibrant style is perfect for your next European getaway. Try out this look in vibrant red, yellow, or orange.
Look #5
There's something so easy about a matching set. The coordinated look is a no-brainer when it comes to versatile vacation looks. Try a breathable linen set on your next trip.
Look #6
I really love this look because it's something almost all of us can get down with. Light, breathable shorts and a fun top will literally look good in so many situations you encounter while on vacation.
