Let's be honest—one of the best parts of going on a vacation is planning the looks you're going to wear before you go. For me, vacation time means one thing: amazing dresses.
I always say a vacation is your opportunity to experiment with your style and try things you wouldn't normally wear in your day-to-day life. Want to try a bold color you typically shy away from or maybe embrace a pattern that's a little more on the wild side? I love to take a chance with my vacation dresses, but basic maxis and cover-ups are always in my suitcase too.
While I was shopping for some great new dresses to bring on my next vacation, these 31 picks, from fun minidresses to classic maxi- and midi-length options, stood out to me. Whether you're traveling somewhere locally or packing up your passport for an adventure, a chic dress is an absolute must.
