9 elegant summer holiday outfits to try this weekend.

There are summer days that call for maximum effortlessness, and there are summer days that call for pure elegance. Get into that resort-holiday mood with inspiration on dressing the latter.

Holidays are just as much about leisure as they are about about spontaneous celebrations, about once-in-a-lifetime memories and unforgettable experiences, that’s why packing for a getaway should be made both practical and fit for all occasions. If you’re already settled on a fabulous destination, make sure to save a little bit of extra room in your luggage for something other than your beach-gear essentials.
