As we slowly make our way out of summer, we can’t help but reflect on the many adventures it’s brought us this year. From tropical destinations to turning up with friends, it seems as if many folks took advantage of their PTO, and we love that. Black people are the hardest working people on this planet, and we deserve time to bask in relaxation. Self-care doesn’t always look like spa dates and shopping sprees; sometimes, it’s simply getting away for some much-needed restoration.

Check out five of our favorite summer vacation photos we found on Instagram.

1. Mykonos

Listen, this is how you slay a trip to Greece! What better way to vacation than with your homies? A squad that slays together stays together.

2. Curaçao

We love a good baecation! This beautiful couple didn’t come to play with the matching fits while celebrating their anniversary. Black love is the best love!

3. Morocco

Black women can do anything, and that includes looking absolutely fabulous in the desert. These lovely women not only understood the assignment, but they mastered it as well.

4. London

We love to see our Black kings traveling the world and looking dapper while doing so. The impeccable drip, poses and swag all warrant tens across the board.

5. Paris

It’s the flawless coordination for me! This duo certainly showed everyone how it’s done with these fly fits in Paris.
