I start shopping for trips almost immediately after booking the flight, and since I have two vacations planned for this summer, I’m on the hunt for resort-ready styles that won’t break the bank. Flight prices already accomplished that.
Fortunately, Target just dropped nearly 600 new arrivals from A New Day, Wild Fable, and Universal Thread, including maxi dresses, swimsuit cover-ups, and straw beach bags that I’m eyeing myself. Ahead, you’ll find my 15 favorite styles starting at $8.

A New Day Balloon Off-the-Shoulder Blouse
Target
I am such a sucker for a matching set, especially when traveling. Not only are they an easy style choice, but you can also mix and match the pieces to create entirely new outfits. This off-the-shoulder blouse, which pairs perfectly with the Taffeta maxi skirt, is effortlessly chic and accomplishes all of the above. The balloon sleeves and midriff-baring crop make it a more daring choice. However, its matching maxi-length bottoms balance out the whole look if you want more coverage.
A New Day Open Work Maxi Sundress
Target
Shoppers raved about this “super flattering” maxi dress that gets them “so many compliments.” The V-neckline, lightweight fabric, and classic black and cream stripe design make it a staple for any beach trip, while the pointelle pattern adds just the right amount of texture. One customer added that the “built-in silky knit slip is perfect and stays in place under the dress” and another said it “looks beautiful and expensive” despite its under-$45 price tag.
Wild Fable Open Weave Crochet Shorts
Target
These open weave crochet cover-up shorts work just as well on their own paired with a tank or bikini top for the beach, or with the matching top. The style has a very sheer design, which makes it an obvious choice to go over a bathing suit, while the lightweight, breathable fabric is ideal for summer. One reviewer called them “perfect” for a beach trip and said they “dry really easily.” Another added that the “elastic waistband with drawstring ensures a comfortable and secure fit” that doesn’t dig into your skin.
A New Day Large Handheld Straw Tote Handbag
Target
A roomy and stylish beach bag might be the most important accessory in your vacation wardrobe. Where else are you going to store the 50 SPF and beach sandwiches? This woven straw tote offers ample space for all your essentials and then some. The curved bottom makes it easy to rest on flat surfaces, while the double handles are easy to carry. Shoppers praised the “lightweight” handbag for its “nice size” and called it the “right touch for your favorite summer outfits.” They also said it’s “very durable.”
