Of course, you’ll need to do a bit of prep work before takeoff to ensure your trip is smooth sailing. You can’t go to the beach without a bathing suit, after all. Luckily, we rounded up six travel essentials that you can grab now for your vacay. And in honor of Women’s History Month, they’re all from women-owned brands! Add them to your shopping list ASAP.

Not only is this lightweight yet spacious weekender bag available at Minted (a woman-founded company), a woman artist also designed the print above.

With notes of jasmine, sea spray, vanilla and coconut, there couldn’t be a more perfect scent to have on hand for your beach getaway.

Who says one-piece swimsuits can’t be sexy? You’re sure to be turning heads in this vibrant red cutout swimsuit.
Coco and Breezy Inspire 53mm Round Sunglasses, $250

The round design of these sunglasses is flattering on most face shapes, and the translucent color will look stunning against sunkissed skin.
Black Girl Sunscreen Moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30, $15.99
Is there anything worse than sunscreen that leaves that icky white residue? Black Girl Sunscreen’s Moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion doesn’t do that. Plus, it’s also hydrating, which is critical when you’re spending lots of time in the sun.
Margaux The City Sandal, $278
Don’t let the name fool you. Although these sandals do look great and keep your feet comfy on city streets, they’ll look just as good for a fancy dinner during your spring getaway.
