Things to Pack For English Beach Vacation

For a decidedly cooler take on beach-bound style, we've escaped to the English seaside. With the likes of Dorset, Cornwall, and Brighton as your final destination, it's easy to see why this trip's must-pack essentials include textured knit sweaters, one classic lightweight trench coat, and brightly hued penny loafers. While these coastal towns offer a fun mix of boardwalk attractions and lush marina landscapes, their chillier climates and intermittent sunshine mean that we've got to master the art of lighter layers and two-in-one styling tricks. Think slouchy cardigans, '70s-inspired printed trousers, and ankle boots as a cool-girl offset to the more summery LWD and semisheer tee separates. Whether you're spending (or dreaming of) sunny days in Hastings and breezier evenings in Newquay, we've pulled 17 eclectic yet timeless pieces, perfect for a dreamy jaunt to Britain's beaches.
