Summer a perfect time for vacation with lots of weekend trips and longer trips. Weekends at the lake are one of my favorites. I have always loved seeing what people bring on vacation and I decided to start a new series on my blog: Packing Lists. With Memorial Day opening the summer season, it seems fitting for my first post in this series to be a packing list for a weekend at the lake.
Here is what I pack for a weekend at the Lake, with lots of relaxing and family time. I love lazy mornings, boating and sun time, and evenings by the fire. I only focus on clothes here. Of course, I’ll also bring all my beauty and makeup essentials and lots of sunscreen. If you’d like to know more, I have a blog post on each which I linked here: beauty, makeup.
pink tank top, v-neck t-shirt, graphic tee, sunglasses, half-zip sweatshirt & sweatshorts, baseball cap, denim shorts, drawstring shorts, birkenstock sandals, sneakers, jeans, wide leg pants, swimsuit, tote, tiered maxi dress
Before every trip, I decide on a color scheme that I want to focus on for the trip. Bring lots of basics that can easily be mixed and matched this allows for many different outfit options depending on the activities and weather. Before every trip, I check the weather forecast, then I also prepare for slightly warmer or colder temperatures. Especially in the Midwest the weather can surprise you.
Happy Packing for all your fun weekends at the lake!
