Whether you are still on a student schedule or well past graduation day, the beginning of summer always comes with the anticipation of summer vacation.
But the planning and packing that go along with vacations can sometimes be a drag — and lead to some unwanted, spontaneous vacation outfits.
To avoid overflowing suitcases, mismatching clothes, inappropriate clothing styles or running out of undergarments, study up on how to pack efficiently and effectively without sacrificing your everyday style.

Here are few tips you can follow when packing for your next vacation, leaving the rest of your trip for (fashionable) fun in the sun:
1. Count out how many days you will be gone, and pack up the appropriate number of undergarments in a separate suitcase compartment.
2. Next, pack up a few shirts and bottoms for sleeping. No need to bring a new shirt and shorts for every day! Roll up the top and bottoms in one stack and place in your suitcase.
3. Now think about how many different types of occasions you will experience on your vacation. Will every day be an outdoor adventure? Will you be dressing up for dinner? Will you need business attire or just casual wear?
4. Count up the different types of occasions, and plan out the same number of outfits, keeping in mind a similar color scheme or style so you can mix and match pieces as much as possible. For instance, if you are taking a dressy outfit and a casual outfit for the same day, try picking out one shirt that can be dressed up and dressed down with different pieces.
5. Roll up different outfits according to the days and place them in your suitcase in sequential order.
6. If necessary, throw in a few extra pieces that can serve as last-minute options if you decide to go with a different look.
7. Pack one — just one! — pair of shoes per occasion on your vacation. For example, pack just one pair of running shoes, one pair of dressy shoes and one pair of everyday walking shoes. Extra points if you have shoes that can serve for multiple occasions.
8. Pick one necklace or other accessory that will complement multiple outfits on the trip. No need to pack your entire jewelry box — accessories often get lost or broken en route. Pack jewelry in a plastic bag and place in the compartment with undergarments for additional padding.
9. Pack bathroom supplies in plastic bags to avoid any messes having to do with changes in elevation.
