[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't have enough tops.

I'd cut back on bottoms and a dress and take more tops.  Do you really want to be handwashing tops in the sink while on vacation?[/quote]

Depends on what you like to wear. I would take more dresses, less tops and shorts. I think dresses keep me much cooler and look more put together. Italians aren't big on shorts.[/quote]

+1 Just returned from Italy and had more dresses than tops and shorts. I wore each dress twice for a 10 day trip. Wore sneakers with the dresses. Seemed to be the "uniform" I saw everywhere. [/quote]

Do you have suggestions for good dresses for this? I feel like most of mine are either “work” dresses or going out dresses. I have one light crepe wrap dress that I was planning to take, and a couple of sundresses so I was going to add 1-2 of those. I’m not opposed to wearing dresses more than shorts but I don’t really have many that I feel would be appropriate. 
I’m a late 30s mom with 3 kids, my style is pretty classic and I’m not at the Eileen Fisher/J Jill  stage of life yet. 😉 [/quote]

A PP posted about Madewell which I had brought a few dresses with me. I also like Juliet Dunn but they are a bit pricey.

Nordstrom Rack has lots of causal styles in both long and short.

I bought this Free People dress and it worked really well. I could also dress it up with high heeled sandals for a dinner out.
