What to Pack for a Warm-Weather Getaway

Nicole Kirwan of Permanent Vacation offers her sartorial advice

With its expert curation and impressive assortment, Permanent Vacation is a one-stop shop for any trip. So, what are Kirwan’s personal packing tips? “I like to lay out my outfits in looks to make sure I am covered for each day, night and planned activity. I also find it super helpful to stick to a color scheme so that your accessories can work with everything—shoes and bags take up so much space!” she says. “And you probably don’t need that extra top that doesn’t go with anything that you added in the last minute.” Here, Kirwin reveals a perfect head-to-toe summer travel look, all available at her Brentwood boutique. permanentvacationshop.com
