What I Wore On My Vacation To Savannah

I always love to do a fashion review of what I've worn on my vacation.  The main reason is that I see too many "What to pack for vacation" posts that include the blandest clothing possible.  People tend to want to pack light so they include a lot of neutrals and simple clothes that they can mix and match.  I'm the total opposite.  Yes, I want to pack light too, but I also know I'm going to be photographed a lot and those pictures will end up on Facebook, in a scrapbook, and will be seen for years to come, so I want to look good.

When packing for Savannah I kept two things in mind:  Comfort and Style.  I wanted to take advantage of the photogenic beauty of the Savannah area so I chose clothes that were romantic and reminded me of the old south.  But, I also knew it would be warm, humid, and I'd be walking a lot so I had to pack for comfort as well.

First, I want to show you an outfit I wore in Savannah that I haven't shown you yet,  then I'll review the rest of the outfits previously posted.

This is a dress I received from Stitch Fix and previously shown in THIS POST.  It's a very comfortable dress to wear as the fabric is lightweight and loose.  The sleeveless style is great for layering and also cool when I choose to wear it alone.  In the picture below it was early in the morning so it was a bit cool.  I wore a thin blush cardigan that could easily fit in my tote when the temperatures increased later in the day.

I started the day with black sandals but I had a pair of sneakers in my bag in case my feet hurt later in the day.   Here is the dress with sandals:

And here is the dress with sneakers.  I obviously prefer the dress with sandals, but I'm happy it looks good with sneakers too.

I carried this large straw tote all four days I was in Savannah.  Most tourists carried back packs, but I find those annoying to get on and off every time I need something.  Yes, this bag got heavy and cumbersome at times, but I'm glad I used it because it literally held everything I needed to get through the day.

And now to review all the outfits I wore the rest of my vacation.  A link to the original post is included at the bottom of each picture.

My princess maxi dress by Disney.  I wore this to the Tybee Island.  It was perfect for a non-swimming day at the beach because the wind lifted up the long dress so it didn't get wet or sandy.

A black floral maxi:  this dress just screams "Savannah" to me!  To keep the packing light, I picked only one sun hat from my collection:  this black straw hat.  It matched the majority of my outfits, that's why it was chosen.
