I Live for Vacation Dressing—These Are the 52 Exact Items on My Summer 2025 Wish List
I just need to put it out there before you dive into this that I know things got a little out of hand. What started as an innocent perusal through the internet ended with carts upon carts of pieces I’m absolutely convinced I need and wish lists nearly at capacity. Of course, I won’t act like this is the first time that’s happened.
Below, you’ll find a whopping 52 vacation-ready finds I am just loving for this summer—a handful of which I have already purchased. From dresses, shorts, and skirts to bikinis, cover-ups, and beach bags, there’s something for every style, destination, and budget. Of course, if you’re still craving more options, we’ve got you covered with under-$100 pieces, every category of linen clothing, fun accessories, and crochet everything. But first, simply keep scrolling to get started.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
