We’re traveling!!! Wooohoooo! People are getting away. Enjoying life again! Breathing some fresh air and relishing the little escapes. If you’ve got a quick weekend getaway planned, here is a simple packing list that will keep you looking fabulous and ready for any occasion that comes up! You’ll find all of this and more in chapter 10 of my book Style on a Shoestring.
First, before your start packing, choose a color story or theme for all of your clothes so that all of the shoes and accessories work together for every outfit. Every garment should do double duty and work with other things you’re packing.
Curate strategic accessories that will dictate the mood of your outfit.
So in a fabulous carryon, pack:
- a flowy skirt
- comfortable shorts
- one colorful tank
- one flowy top
- tankini bathing suit
- crushable sun hat
- fabulous scarf
- sophisticated flip/flops
- strappy heel
- statement earrings
- evening bag
- a nighty
- undies
- zip-out travel bag for the beach or souvenir shopping
You should travel in:
- a cropped pant or jeans
- tank top
- lightweight hoodie or sweater
- a feminine walking shoe
- colorful wrap (used as a scarf, blankie or sarong)
- statement watch
- hoop earrings
- sunglasses
These pieces and your packed items will allow you to dress up for dinner, hit the beach, site see, shop, or hit the club feeling stylish and appropriate.
