The Best Jewelry to Pack for Vacation (and How to Wear It)

Vacation style is all about feeling easy, effortless, and a little playful — and your jewelry should do the same. Whether you’re headed to a city escape or a beachside retreat, here’s how to pack (and style) jewelry that makes every outfit feel elevated, without overthinking it.

1. Bring One Standout Piece
A bold, one-of-a-kind necklace instantly dresses up a simple outfit. Think layered gold chains with pearls or an oversized vintage pendant. Wear it with a white tee and denim or draped over a slip dress for dinners out.

2. Delicate Layers That Go With Everything
Light, thin chains and subtle stone pieces are perfect for daytime. They’re easy to layer, mix, and match with swimsuits, sundresses, and relaxed travel looks.

3. Pearls That Feel Fresh
Leave the classic strand at home — opt for irregular, colorful pearls or mixed pearl-and-chain designs. They bring a cool edge to linen sets and breezy vacation looks.

4. A Touch of Color
Multicolor stone or crystal necklaces add personality without overpowering. Pair them with neutrals or use them to brighten up a monochromatic outfit.

5. Lightweight Pieces with Movement
Earrings or necklaces with dangling details or delicate chains catch the light beautifully in vacation sun. Pieces that move feel playful and luxurious.

6. Stick to Versatile Neutrals + Pops of Gold
Gold and warm metallics work with everything — from ocean blues to sandy neutrals and vibrant prints.

Pro Tip: How to Pack It All
Wrap each piece in a soft pouch or layer them between fabric to avoid tangles. And always bring pieces you won’t worry about — the goal is effortless style, not stress.
