While I am four years out of college, I still consider any vacation at the beginning of spring a “spring break.” It makes a warm-weather getaway all the more exciting, right? I just returned from a quick trip to Miami, and I have to say the spring break season has officially kicked off.

Keep reading for nine spring break outfits and essentials — starting at $16.
Best Spring Break Vacation Clothes at Amazon
The Drop Catalina Pull-on Rib Sweater Pants
Amazon
Being from Boston, I know the challenge of finding something versatile (and warm) enough to wear when traveling from a cool climate to a warm-weather destination. These sweater pants will keep you cozy for a chilly trip to the airport and while you’re on your flight. When paired with the matching top, you also get a two-piece set perfect for lounging at your destination. While made from a sweater material, one Amazon shopper wrote that the bottoms are “light and breathable,” while another person added that the pants are “super comfortable and soft.”
Saodimallsu Crochet Short Set
Amazon
This comfy crochet set has so many practical uses, from a swimsuit cover-up to a lounge set. The beachy two-piece consists of a striped button-down top and matching shorts, and it’s available in four playful color combinations, including black and yellow and light blue and seafoam green. The set is also machine washable, making it easy to clean after a day at the beach — just remember to hang it to dry.
Havaianas Slim Crystal Flip Flops
Amazon
Flip-flops are a spring vacation staple shoe — especially a pair from Havaianas. The beloved sandal brand is known for its rubber flip-flops, and this pair stays true to the classic style but with a twist. A Swarovski crystal embellishment on the strap adds a bit of sparkle to the popular flip-flops.
Amazon Essentials Active Sculpt Biker Shorts
Amazon
If you’re looking for a day of adventure or just an early morning run on your spring vacation, don’t forget to throw a pair of active shorts in your suitcase. This pair of biker bottoms won’t take up much space, but you’ll be happy to have them on hand. The neon pink shade is perfect for a tropical destination, and you can pick up the coordinating top for a complete set. If you’re not convinced yet, the $16 price tag helps to seal the deal.
Body Glove Maddie V-neck One-piece Swimsuit
Amazon
When it comes to swimsuits, I usually favor one-pieces, but I’m always looking for options with unexpected details. This one-piece from Body Glove has a unique cutout detailing in the front that fits the bill. The V-neckline and smoothing fabric make for a flattering style that’s easy to wear, and the swimsuit has adjustable straps to find your most comfortable fit.
Zesica Sleeveless Striped Dress
Amazon
Getting ready for dinner at sunset after a day at the beach is one of the best parts of vacation, especially when you have a new sundress to slip on. This A-line dress — currently 20 percent off — has a flattering U-neckline and an eye-catching striped pattern. It comes in nine colors, from a subtle apricot shade to a striking green.
Ray-Ban Classic Aviator Sunglasses
Amazon
Protecting your eyes from the hot sun while on vacation is crucial, so why not do it in style? This pair of timeless Ray-Ban aviator sunglasses is a popular choice amongst Amazon shoppers, with over 16,000 five-star ratings. While they’re a bit of a splurge, one reviewer noted that they’ve had their Ray Ban sunglasses for “over 13 years” and “they are still going strong.” You can shop the unisex sunglasses in three sizes and over 30 colors.
Anrabess Crochet Swim Cover Up
Amazon
If two-piece sets aren’t your style, try this elegant crochet cover-up dress to throw on over your swimsuit. The loose-fitting knit instantly elevates any poolside look, especially when paired with beach sandals and a big floppy hat. Right now, you can add a coupon at checkout, bringing the price down to $30.
Marc Jacobs The Large Tote Bag
Amazon
A spacious beach tote bag is a vacation essential. Aptly named “The Large Tote Bag,” this canvas Marc Jacobs tote is big enough to fit your book, sunglasses, sunscreen, cover-up, and so much more. The inside has pockets to tuck away your wallet or phone, and the zip top adds another layer of protection. Shoppers also say that the tote bag is a great personal item, with one person dubbing it the “perfect travel bag.”
