Must-haves for all your summer vacations

Summer, perfected.

Beach calling your name? A road trip? Or a chill staycation? Ah, summer is the best time to relax and recharge. But planning can be tricky. Best to think about what you'll be doing and what the weather forecast says. If travel is on your mind, resist the urge to toss everything "just in case" into your bag. Pack light clothes that you can easily mix and match, from day to night. Don't forget comfy shoes and a hat to keep the sun off. If you're planning a staycation instead, then no better time to rediscover your city or turn your backyard into a relaxing retreat.

Before you unwind, here are more great tips and picks for a fun summer adventure.
