We had an incredible trip over spring break. We spent a few days in Dubai, the Al-Wadi Desert, and ended it with a relaxing beach stay in Oman. Here is everything I packed for the trip.
Dubai Style
I love a crisp all white dress for travel, it is one of my go to travel looks. This dress had long sleeves for extra sun coverage, a crossbody bag (necessary to be hands free when chasing after little ones) and sneakers so you can explore comfortably.

Dubai nights are magical, so it makes sense to bring an outfit with a little sparkle. I love that body con dresses are making a comeback (in a more sophisticated silhouette) and they are perfect for a night on the town. Add a little sparkle to this simple look with a sequin bag and shoes, and you are ready to go! Click here to shop this look, or click on the items below:
Desert Looks
I wanted to have a great photo opportunity on our camel ride, but didn’t want to sacrifice my comfort, so I wore a maxi dress with biker shorts underneath. It made for a great picture moment, but also kept my legs from getting rubbed. This dress is not currently available, but I did find a few cute and well priced alternatives. Pair them with gold sandals to complete the look! Click here to shop this look, or click on the items below:
From hiking, to archery, and everything in between, there are many outdoor activities in the Al-Wadi Desert. I loved the way neon popped in the desert, so I brought along my best neon colored workout sets. Click here to shop my favorite neon sets available now.

I saw this suit and fell in love immediately. It was the perfect outfit for desert evenings because the jacket added a little warmth after the sun went down. This suit is unforgettable, the fit, and neon color make it a standout piece in any wardrobe. It is definitely a splurge, but worth the investment. I love that each piece can be used separately or it can be added together for a powerful and fun look. I have also found some other similar styles for less that I have linked.

This look is perfect for a vintage jeep tour of the Al-wadi desert, or pretty much anything else. I love the fit of this blouse, it looks amazing with high waist jeans, but would also pair well with shorts, a cute skirt, or something flowy. I loved the way the colors in the blouse matched these Terry cloth bottega slides. I will be wearing this look again and again this spring and summer.

Beach Looks
The perfect beach dress! It didn’t look amazing on the hanger, but once on it was the perfect fit. It hugs your figure in all of the right places and has the cutest draping details. The pink stripes accentuate the curve hugging style. I paired it with a cute summery straw bag that is always a good beach pick. Click here to shop this look, or click on the items below.
When you arrive to Six Senses Zighy Bay, you are able to paraglide in. Of course we couldn’t pass up the chance to arrive in style! This neon workout set was the perfect choice for the landing. It is so comfortable and moisture wicking. I loved the fit and color. Click Here to shop this look, or click on the items below.
You can’t go wrong with a pair of cut off denim shorts when packing for a warm weather trip. I love wearing them over a swimsuit by the pool, or dressing them up or down. This pair from Mother Denim is my favorite because they offer a good amount of coverage, but are still cute and stylish.

I love the versatility of this dress. I wore it to a fun and funky black tie event in Dallas, but also rocked it on our beach vacation. The light crossbody bag, and terry cloth slides helped give it a more casual feel, while still packing a lot of punch thanks to the fun silhouette and color of the dress.

I love shopping pre vacation for pieces that can work on my trip and back home. This lightweight dress paired well with sandals and a crossbody on the beach, but would also be really cute with a pair of heels and a little shine for a night out back home.

This bright green dress is so comfortable, and the bow detail really makes it pop. It was perfect for our beach nights, and would be so cute dressed up for a date night in Dallas. I paired it with my favorite silver clutch. Click here to shop, or click below to shop the pieces.
From workwear to the beach, neons are everywhere. I love the deep blue hue of this fitted ALC top, and the pop of yellow these PVC pumps add to the overall look. The skirt is old. but click here to shop the newer pieces, or click on the items below.
