South Beach Miami on a Budget
What to wear in Miami Beach
OK, you purchased your airline tickets, made a hotel reservation, and are ready to start packing. What to wear in South Beach Miami? What should you pack for a trip, and what should you leave at home?
Especially now, when airlines have so many luggage and weight restrictions, you want to pack only the right clothes in your suitcase (unless you don't mind paying the airlines extra!).
How do people spend time in South Beach Miami?
Before you start packing for your trip, let's look at how people spend time in South Beach Miami.
Early morning
Nothing is better than a run (or brisk walk) before breakfast before the sun gets too hot. There are miles (about 4 miles, to be more precise) of the boardwalk in South Beach Miami, along the hotel side of the beach.
Most likely, you would want to do it too. So, remember to bring your sneakers and workout clothes.
Comfy Clothing
• Women's Sherpa Puffer Jacket.
• Minibee Women's Baggy Linen Trousers. Harem Pants.
• YESNO Women's Oversized Pullover. Casual Loose with Long Sleeve.
• COOFANDY Men's Linen Long Sleeve Button-Down Shirt.
• Venado Henley Long Sleeve Shirt for Men with Flex Material.
After breakfast - beach time
This is beach time for most people on vacation in South Beach Miami; pack your swimsuit, suntan lotion, and sunglasses. And don't forget a hat!
South Beach after 11 A.M.
If you are like me, the chances are from 11 A.M. until 4 P.M., you will be hiding from the sun at the nearest Starbucks or by the swimming pool. It is just too hot to be under direct sunlight, and no matter how much sunscreen lotion you use, you still get sunburn. So, it is better to be safe than sorry!
After midday
And, in case you wonder what to wear after midday - statement T-shirts would work. They're not just comfy - they're like the superheroes of casual wear. With a quirky saying, these tees make you stand out. Plus, they are great conversation starters.
Dinner time
People dress up for dinner in South Beach Miami. Whether it's dinner at the Delano Hotel or gourmet pizza on Lincoln Road, whether you like to wear bohemian-style clothes or prefer a very conservative look, you must be dressed up for dinner.
Luxury hotels have a dress code at dinner time. Besides, people in South Beach like to go for drinks after dinner, and many hotels don't allow people in beach clothes in a restaurant.
At night
Anything funky and crazy goes at night. Be creative! South Beach Miami is a partying town that never sleeps.
You want to get noticed in a crowd. And you want to feel comfortable in your clothes because South Beach is hot and humid, even at night. What to wear to a nightclub? Check out our article, Nightclub Outfits for many practical recommendations on what to wear to a nightclub.
Miami colors
Everyone wants to know what color to wear. We recommend wearing bright colors, like yellow, hot pink, royal blue, or certain shades of red or orange. Somehow, the bright colors look perfect in South Beach.
If you can't figure out which color is best for you or don't like bright colors, you can always wear black or, perhaps, brown.
Synthetics or cotton?
It can be boiling and humid in South Beach Miami. Generally, synthetics or half synthetics/half cotton are better for the sea climate than clothes made of 100% cotton. Cotton observes moisture. It doesn't feel right and doesn't look good either.
Final thoughts
And if you forgot to bring something, don't worry. There are tons of stores around. After all, the trip to South Beach Miami is about having FUN.
But most importantly, enjoy the beach, the sun, and the nightlife. All your worries about what to wear can be left at home!
We hope this article gave you many ideas about what to wear in South Beach Miami.

In Case You Get Sunburn
The best remedy for sunburn is Aloe Vera Gel. I always bring a small bottle with me when traveling to the beach area because I get sunburn quickly. Also, pharmacy stores in South Beach Miami sell Aloe Vera Gel.
