Spring break is calling, and whether you’re jetting off to a tropical escape or planning a cozy staycation with your girls, we’ve got the ultimate carry-on essentials to make it extra special. From beachside picnics to book club happy hours, here’s what to pack for a stylish and stress-free getaway!

1. A Chic Beach Picnic with Shake Ya Palm

Sunshine, salty air, and a stylish beach picnic—what more could you ask for? Pack up some of our Shake Ya Palm collection paperware for an easy, no-fuss seaside lunch. Toss in the tropical-themed plates and napkins, and you’re instantly picnic-ready. Just add your favorite snacks, a bottle of bubbly, and good company!

2. Lounge in Literary Style

A beach day isn’t complete without a good book, and we’ve got the ultimate reading accessory: our “SHH… I’m Reading” beach towel from the Book Club collection. Roll it up and toss it into your Library Card tote bag, because every book lover knows—there’s no such thing as packing light when it comes to vacation reads!

3. Staycation? Wine & Book Night It Is!

If you’re keeping things low-key this spring break, why not turn it into the ultimate bookish girls’ night in? Grab your besties, pop open a bottle of wine, and sip in style with our witty Book Club wine glasses—choose from “Wine Down & Read” or “Read Books, Drink Wine, Stay Inside” for the perfect Instagram-worthy moment.

4. Activities for Your Shake Ya Palm Beach Afternoon or Cozy Staycation

📖 For the beach babes: Start a mini book swap with your friends—everyone brings a favorite read and leaves with something new! Add in a fun playlist, a round of beachside trivia, or a sunset journaling session.

🏡 For the staycation squad: Turn your living room into a cozy book nook. Stack up the pillows, set up a DIY charcuterie board, and host a rom-com or book-to-movie adaptation marathon. Bonus points if there’s a matching pajama theme!
