A Tropical Vacation Is on the Cards—Here's What's in My Revolve, H&M, and Nordstrom Carts

Whenever I think of my ideal vacation, it’s always tropical. I want a suitcase full of bikinis, dresses, skirts, and kitten heels—with beaches, warm weather, and seafood for literally every meal.

During the never-ending cold spell in New York these past few months, I feel like I couldn't stop saying, “I want a tropical vacation.” (Over and over and over.)

It’s finally warming up, so it feels like we’re out of the woods, but still… I want a tropical vacation. And my list of dream destinations just keeps growing: Bali, Mexico, Australia, Costa Rica, the Caribbean, Turks and Caicos, Puerto Rico, the DR, Saint Lucia.

While I plan my next trip, here’s what’s currently in my Revolve, H&M, and Nordstrom carts.
