If you don’t know, then you know that I am always preparing for another trip. I just got back from Vietnam, and I’m really excited about my first solo trip. Whether it’s great food and sightseeing or great shopping, there’s a wealth of things to do and see. If you don’t know, Vietnam is in the Tropical Monsoon zone, so it can be very hot and humid depending on the city you are in and the time of year. Although I was well prepared for what I was about to encounter, there were things I wished I had thought to pack. In the past, I’ve detailed which vacation fashion pieces and beauty products I think you should bring on your next trip.
If you’re headed in the same direction, I’ve got you covered. From breathable yet chic linen clothing options to skin care must-haves, there’s almost everything you can think of ahead of time. Keep scrolling for hot weather beauty and fashion picks that get this editor’s stamp of approval.
