Summer fun in the sun is already in full swing and traveling is at an all time high. But are you really exploring the world without style? Whether you're staying local or going across the pond, there are things you shouldn't leave home without. Just like you, the staff at Couture love their vacations and we have curated the Top Summer Travel Essentials you need to have.

Getting through the Gates

Your passport is quite possibly the most important piece of travel accessories needed for both cruises and out of country excursions, so why not protect it with a luxurious exterior. Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and more have all the perfect covers for your passport and any other documents that will kickstart your getaway. Keep this one nearby and ready, you don't want to forget it at home.

Keep it All in one Place

The next step in a successful vacation is the type of luggage you're taking. Rolling luggages are great, but duffles are just as nice to travel with especially the iconic Louis Vuitton Keepall. Coming in a variety of sizes, these bags are easily slipped into a car or used as a carry-on on a plane.

Now it's time to pack! Here are some things you should make sure are packed away for your getaway.

Sand & Surf Musts

Headed to the water? From poolside to surfside, keeping your essentials safe and secure is a must. Beach inspired totes or even a Neverfull are ideal for carrying everything from sunscreen to towels. Try adding an extra layer of security with a Toiletry pouch that will keep your liquids from spilling over.

Logo Footwear

Trending from every angle, a logo on your shoes is a must. Check out some Gucci Marmont sandals , Hermes Oran Sandals, or even Balenciaga pool slides for versatile wear while you walk the streets of a local market or leave the sand.

Sun Protection

Not everyone chooses to protect their eyes and head from the sun, but it's definitely important that you do. Try out a pair of sunglasses or even a hat to keep the harmful rays of the sun away and don't forget to reapply sunscreen!

Day to Night Carry

The final thing on our essentials list is your holy grail for the trip. Whether you take one, two, or more, make sure that you take purses that will not only carry everything you need, but also ones that are stylish and can be used daily. A classic black bag is perfect for pairing with any and every outfit, while a bold and colorful purse will turn heads from every angle. 

Make a list, check off these essentials, and don't forget to pack extra clothes before you leave!
