Keep scrolling to check out what Wright wore on her recent visit to Mexico plus some inspired shopping picks so you can try out each look at home. Enjoy dreaming of warmer weather ahead and new outfits to wear for whatever the day has in store.
1. Neutral Cover-Ups and Sandals
On Susie Wright: Vitamin A cover-up; Valentino sandals
"If you have a tropical vacation coming up, a stylish cover-up and a great pair of neutral sandals are essentials. Sheer dresses, linen button-downs, and sarongs will easily take you from pool- or beachside to pre-dinner cocktails. A cover-up is the perfect transition piece!" — Susie Wright
2. Cool Accessories
On Susie Wright: Burberry bucket hat; Loewe tote
"Accessories are the details that take your warm-weather outfits to the next level. Look for versatile ones for plenty of wear. A good bucket hat and tote can be worn at the resort, into town for lunch, and while shopping. Don't forget your sunnies and some pretty jewelry!" — Wright
3. Raffia Bags
On Susie Wright: Cinq à Sept jacket and Clare V. bag
"Raffia is gaining momentum as the perfect summer neutral. A light, versatile material, raffia accessories go with pretty much every single item in your closet. Bonus: They add a little texture to every warm-weather outfit." — Wright
4. Comfortable Travel Outfits
On Susie Wright: Spanx AirEssential jumpsuit; Sam Edelman sandals
"It can be a bit tricky to travel from a cold- to a warm-weather destination. I like to wear something that works with both sneakers and sandals, like a jumpsuit. Of course, anything you can layer on top will come in handy later!" — Wright
5. Matching Sets
On Susie Wright: Spanx AirEssentials half-zip and matching pants
"Matching sets are super comfy and easy and are perfect for sightseeing. You can layer a tee or a tank under, and if it gets too warm, throw the top over your shoulders—so chic and practical!" — Wright
6. Dresses, Dresses, and More Dresses
On Susie Wright: Cara Cara dress
"Everyone should consider a new dress or two when the weather starts warming up. They're easy, super stylish, and, best of all, one-and-done. Look for styles you can dress up or down for added versatility. They're ideal for travel too." — Wright
7. Denim Skirts
On Susie Wright: Paige skirt
"Once the weather warms up, consider wearing denim skirts. They're still trending in 2024, and there are many options to choose from. Pair with sneakers or sandals for a casual but elevated look." — Wright
8. Short-Sleeved Cotton Tops
On Susie Wright: Frame shirt and jeans
"Finding a short-sleeved cotton top to wear with denim skirts, jeans, or even shorts is worth the investment. I wore this one on repeat, and now, it's back again this season! Highly recommend a couple of different colors in addition to white and black. You'll make dozens of outfits with this one piece!" — Wright
