Pride weekend is here. The sun is out, the playlist is blasting, and your phone is blowing up with group chat messages about where to pregame and what time to hit the parade.

But before you roll out half-naked and ready to dance the streets dry, you’ll want to be prepared. This isn’t just another weekend. This is Pride—a celebration of who you are, how far we’ve come, and how damn good you look in that jockstrap.

Here’s everything you need to pack, prep, and plan for a weekend full of glitter, grins, and possibly a very memorable sunrise.

1. The Jockstrap

Your outfit is not complete without one. Whether it’s peeking out under your shorts, worn loud and proud with nothing but a harness, or saving the day (and the night) for after-hours fun—this is your not-so-secret weapon. Bring more than one. You never know where the night might take you.

2. Glitter

Yes, it gets everywhere. Yes, you’ll still be finding it in October. But Pride without glitter is like a jock without straps—it’s just not right. Go for body glitter, face gems, hair sparkle… whatever catches the sun and makes strangers stare (in the best way).

Pro tip: use a good setting spray. You want to leave an impression, not a glitter bomb in someone’s bed.

3. Sunglasses That Make You Untouchable

It’s sunny. You’re slightly hungover. You’re trying to spot that cute guy from last night without looking desperate. Big shades with just the right amount of attitude are your armor. They also double as an excuse for why you missed someone’s flirty wink.

4. Sunscreen (Yes, Really)

You’re not trying to serve lobster realness. Slather up before the parade, after your shirt mysteriously disappears, and again when you’re shirtless on the rooftop at 6 p.m. Trust us—nothing ruins a hookup faster than a sunburned chest.

5. Breath Mints & Lip Balm

Because if you’re planning on kissing strangers at sunset (and let’s be honest, you are), fresh breath and soft lips will take you far. Slip them into your bag or pocket and you’ll be ready when the moment strikes.

6. Your Flirtiest Fit

Maybe it’s a mesh tank. Maybe it’s a cropped tee that clings in all the right places. Maybe it’s barely-there shorts that ride just a little higher as the day heats up. Whatever your vibe, wear something that makes you feel unstoppable—and easy to undress later.

7. Your Chosen Family (or Someone to Dance With)

Pride is better with people who hype you up, pour your drinks, take your photos, and pull you onto the dance floor when your favorite song hits. Pack your besties, your hookups, your ex you’re now friends with—whoever feels like home in a crowd.

8. An Open Heart (and a Charger for Your Phone)

Pride is about more than parties. It’s about joy. Visibility. Freedom. And finding connection in the most unexpected places. So stay open. Smile more. Say hi to strangers. And bring a portable charger—because nothing kills a good time like a dead phone when you’re one dance floor away from your next adventure.

Ready for your best Pride weekend yet?

We’ve got the jocks, tanks, shorts, and sheer delights you need to turn heads and own every moment—whether you’re at the front of the parade or tangled in a stranger’s sheets by sunrise.

Go shine. Go sweat. Go kiss someone gorgeous at sunset.
