We had such a great time in Miami Beach this past month! We packed up a few suitcases and drove from Tampa Bay to South Beach and had so much fun we nearly extended our trip another week! This trip we stayed in an Airbnb so we could bring Ollie and also work part of the time. I shared some outfit snaps on Instagram stories and the highlights. I know many of you don’t always catch them since they expire within 24 hours but I’ve saved them to my MIAMI VACAY highlights and tagged all the places we ate and visited.
I’ll have an updated roundup of our favorite places to stay, eat, shop and relax. For today I have a highly requested roundup of what I packed and what I wore during our trip.
Beach Essentials
1 sunscreen spray / 2 jack black sunscreen / 3 glow screen / 4 uv essential / 5 sunglasses / 6 water bottle / 7 aloe gel / 8 shiseido spf / 9 clear sunscreen stick / 10 favorite hat / 11 brown oval sunglasses / 12 slides / 13 woven tote medium / 14 yellow basket / 15 green swimsuit & bottoms / 16 ivory one piece / 17 black one-piece / 18 cooler / 19 cooler tote / 20 beach towel / 21 after sun balm
I packed a ton of sunscreen for the beach and for every day. My personal favorite for the body is the Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protector Lotion with SPF 50+ because it’s the longest lasting, stays on the skin the best through sweat, water and heat, and it’s not thick or sticky. Andrew’s favorite is the Jack Black Oil-Free Sun Guard with SPF 45. For him this is the best sweat-resistant sunscreen.
Other favorites include the Shiseido Clear Sunscreen Stick, new Chanel UV Essentiel, Supergoop! Glowscreen, Vacation Classic Spray (now in SPF 50). We also really love the Vacation After Sun Gel (it’s alcohol free) and I love the new Dior Solar After-Sun Balm (this one does have alcohol but it’s not as high on the ingredient list).
For swimsuits I love Montce Swim and Hunza G for more conservative swim wear that covers a lot. Since we stayed at an Airbnb I packed my own towels from Business & Pleasure and I really love them. They have matching coolers and cooler totes too!
Accessories and Bags
1 woven tote (medium size) / 2 shell basket / 3 brown oval sunnies / 4 black sunnies / 5 square sunnies / 6 scrunchies / 7 small jewelry case / 8 mini raffia tote / 9 zip pouches / 10 hat / 11 towel / 12 hair clip / 13 slides / 14 sunscreen / 15 sunscreen / 16 white bag / 17 sneakers / 18 white sandals / 19 chloe slides / 20 fendi slides / 21 black sandals
