What to Pack for Croatia – Summer 2025

Here’s a quick post on ideas for what to pack for a summer trip to Croatia in 2025. Hvar is where Mediterranean ease meets just the right touch of glam. It’s sun-drenched days, cobblestone streets, cliffside beach clubs, and golden hour spritzes that somehow stretch on forever. The vibe is relaxed, but elevated. Think linen sets, breezy dresses, strappy sandals, and a couple of standout looks for late-night cocktails. The weather is hot and sunny with warm evenings—just toss in a light layer for those occasional breezy nights. Below are some of my recs for beach club days, easy looks for wandering town, casual dinners, and a couple of dressier…

what to pack for croatia: a croatia style guide

wear this there: what to pack for croatia ~ a comprehensive style and travel guide for croatia ~ we spent three glorious weeks this summer in the balkans, road tripping along the adriatic coast through montenegro, croatia, and slovenia. we feasted on fresh fish, calamari, and squid, paired with local wines and spritzers. we took private boats (to escape the crowds) along the bay of kotor and the elaphiti islands, coasting along dramatic cliffsides to sparkling blue grottoes and hidden beaches. we reunited with friends in hvar and partied ‘til sunrise, rode scooters in search of beautiful, pebbled beaches and vineyards on an almost suffocatingly hot day in korcula. we…

my new favorite beach accessory

on my recent trip to the adriatic coast, i challenged myself to pack everything for my 3 week trip in just a carry on, including an oversized travel towel! and by some miracle, i made it work. i knew I’d be spending a lot of days lounging by the ocean, and the adriatic is known for its rocky beaches, so i needed something comfortable to lay on and those plain lightweight travel towels weren’t very appealing to me. the skova oversized travel towel that i brought ended up being perfect. it was big enough for both my boyfriend and me to sit on, plus it’s super cute! they have so…

the french riviera: style guide

ahhh, the french riviera. the glitz and glamour, the rosé and champagne, the yachts and fancy cars, the sparkling, cerulean blue seas and pastel colored towns, the jetsetters and a-list parties. is that what you picture when you think of the famed southern coast of france? well, the french riviera is actually a bit of a paradox. some parts, even in (or maybe i should say, especially in) monaco, nice, and antibes, are rather run down and dated. but not in the charming way you imagine, more in the eyesore, wtf are these hideous buildings, kind of way. of course there is also the chic and dazzling side to these…
