8 Outfits to Pack for Your Trip to Cancun

If I’m being completely honest, I haven’t been to Cancun yet. However, I have visited the neighboring town called Tulum and with a similar climate and vacation vibe—I have heard that the packing list should be about the same. I have a friend who’s going to a wedding in Cancun and she doesn’t know anyone who will be there besides her date, so I decided to steer her in the right direction by compiling some outfit ideas for a vacation at this destination.

So here’s what I’m thinking. Your wardrobe should be a mix of fun yet casual beachwear with a few polished outfits to wear in the family friendly settings that you might encounter. I’m thinking tailored pieces will pull together the vacation wardrobe for dinners at the resort or on the town. You’ll have an all-encompassing packing list with pieces that you can style in many different ways throughout your trip, enjoy.

When I think of traveling to Mexico, I think of the warm neutrals that I see in a lot of the architecture. A matching set that coincides with this theme is definitely a good idea. I’m obsessed with the fact that this top looks like a necklace.

If you couldn’t tell, we love a printed dress. This would be my outfit of choice for a day spent out and about the resort or the town in cancun. I also love using it as a swimsuit coverup on top of anything in your collection.

When it comes to swimwear, it’s really all about how you accessorize. You can wear just one bikini a million and one ways and it will still feel brand new every time when you change the coverup and add a cute hat or chic woven bag.

A no-brainer for your packing list definitely has to be a maxi dress, an equally bright and fun bag is the perfect accessory to go right along with it. I’d tell a friend to pack this as an easy option to slip into for dinner after a full day spent at the beach.

There simply has to be a glam night on every vacation I attend. A sparkly mini dress feels like the perfect thing to wear for a night out in Cancun. Whether you’re going to a club or just having a fun dinner, it’s a must.
