THE OVERVIEW OF THE CLOTHING I PACKED
Click on any of the images below to make them larger
If you want to know where each item is from, go to my Polyvore set & click on each item.
The below options can be modified to last for a longer trip.
All the items below should be more than enough for a weekend to a week on vacation, especially considering you can re-wear items.
The above is not a lot to pack.
Remember to roll your items so that they can stack ontop of each other and fit.
You will also be wearing at least 3 clothing items up there, so you’re only packing 2 tops, sweatpants and a dress.
Here is generally what I wear as a traveling outfit.
And this is how the combination of outfits plays out in my mind.
It is WAY MORE than what I need for a whole weekend including traveling, but the options are all there.
I don’t like to wear sweatpants in public.
But if you must, at least the tops and the cute jacket above will give you some solid style.
Not shown:
- 4 pairs of Underwear
- 4 pairs of Socks
This might be a silly question but I'm a little confused: Do you already own these items or are they just ideas/what-I-would-wear-ideas? If so, you own a $2000 Givenchy necklace and $900 boots? wow! *jaw drops* I've never heard of Polyvore, what is it?
I don’t own these items. They are just examples 🙂
I will be posting (June 2nd) on what I do own and am packing for most of my trips. You can see a lot of my wardrobe at Style on a String (www.stylestring.com) under “Wardrobe Show and Tell)
I didn't think so. A $3000 necklace ! I'm sure you'd rather use that money to travel than have a necklace. I've seen your wardrobe show and tell – so fun 🙂 And I love your minimalist site too it's awesome.
Bingo 🙂
I will be posting my real wardobe, however. I don’t own ANYTHING that is worth more than $300… trust me!
OOh i’m in love with that turquoise necklace ^_____^ so pretty!
I love this post! I travel about every other week for work, so I’m always looking to hone my packing skills. Because I’m often in a different place every day, I can definitely get away with recycling outfits. My biggest issue is that I have to drive long distances, so the clothes I drive in don’t usually last between wears. I may eventually break down and get a travel steamer. My wardrobe is always multi-functional and in the same color family. Many times I do black, white and gray with yellow and/or red accessories to spice things up.
I might post what I pack. See if it meets your minimalist approval. 😉
Do it! I love seeing what people pack 🙂
I can always manage to pack light. My secret is I ALWAYS dress in the same color palette. This way, I only have to bring one handbag and one pair of shoes. I always bring shoes that can go from day to evening. Also, I wear the same travel outfit, departure and return.
Where is that Jacket/Sweater from? Love it!
I found it on Nordstrom. It was about $300, but I wrote this post a year or so ago, so it may not be available any longer.
Where's the gorgeous v-neck wrap shirt from?
The purple one? Priestess Top by Vivienne Westwood

My mistake, it is from Polyvore (Debenham’s)
I forgot that I created a Polyvore Set so I could keep track of the clothing 🙂
