I will not start this post by pretending I’m the best packer in the world. There have been moments of greatness that have shined through, but there also have been moments where I packed everything but the kitchen sink and still found myself not having anything to wear. This summer, we are going on a bunch of different adventures and I need to have a plan for my packing, because what I don’t want is to to overpack, but I also want to have cute outfits for all the occasions. So truth be told, I started packing yesterday and laying out outfits so I have a clear sense of what I am going to be bringing, what I may still need and I know it will make my travels so much smoother.
Step 1
I went through my closet and pulled a handful of dresses that felt on brand for our destination. I then laid out my shoe and bag options and proceeded to try each dress on and pairing it with the shoe/bag. What I wanted to ensure was that I picked shoes that would go with a bunch of different outfits, so I didn’t have to pack 8 pairs of shoes (which by the way, let’s circle back on my return - I may panic and throw in a bunch lol). From there I pulled a handful of bags in black and also tan so I had something to go with each look.
