PTO Is Calling—35 Revolve, J.Crew, and Nordstrom Items I'd Wear on Vacation


I don’t know about you, but I’ve been thinking about my upcoming summer vacation nonstop. While there are still many weeks between then and now, I’ve been so fixated on vacation-ready clothing styles while planning my outfits. I recently dug through some of the latest arrivals and best-selling items on Revolve, Nordstrom, and J.Crew to see if I’d find anything worth buying. Not only did I find some standout styles on each site, but many are pieces I can wear for years to come. I’ve detailed my favorite vacation fashion finds below.
Yes, that’s correct. I’ve figured out exactly what clothing items I’m wearing when my PTO officially starts. Revolve, Nordstrom, and J.Crew have seriously delivered some beautiful finds. I’m talking gorgeous breathable dresses, cute swimwear for the pool or beach, and pretty accessories to top everything off. Keep scrolling to uncover the exact finds from each respective retailer worth shopping to take full advantage of your PTO.
