Everything To Pack For Your Summer Vacay To Brazil

There’s something so exciting about plotting your summer travels, whether you’re jet-setting to the ends of the earth or mapping out more low-key affairs. First, there’s the inevitable internal back and forth of deciding whether to pull the trigger and book the trip. This exhaustive process usually includes checking the flight and hotel prices on a daily (or hourly) basis, researching the best local restaurants and hangouts, scrolling through Instagram for the most picturesque spots, and a whole lot of daydreaming. When you finally decide to rip the Band-Aid off and book the trip, that's when the real fun begins. Finally, you can get excited about packing for your summer vacation.

Traveling in the height of the summer presents the perfect opportunity to shine some light on your winter-worn closet. That's why we’ve teamed up with Havaianas — the brand that just cemented its rep as an authority on summer by debuting its first sunglasses collection — to help you nail down your travel essentials with ease.

So try punching up your packing list with a sunny yellow swimsuit, a fringy little white dress, and floral flip flops. Up the ante on your sun protection with a pom-pom embellished hat and reflective shades, and don’t forget to pack a portable charger to make sure your phone's ready to capture memories along the way. Bon voyage!
