A Dress Code That's Stylish And Comfortable

Packing for a vacation, however, is not quite so relaxing as the vacay itself. Filling a suitcase for your vacation means deciding exactly what you want to wear every day of your trip in advance. Especially for the indecisive chronic over-packers among us, this process can be extremely harrowing. Packing for a trip doesn’t have to be a horrible, dreaded chore. In fact, once you break it down to a simple science, you’ll be a stylish, vacay-packer expert in no time.

The Basics of Vacay Packing

Whether you’re packing for a day trip, weekend getaway, or an overnight trip, the same rules apply: You need to be able to pack a range of outfits, with a limited number of pieces in each. The less you can pack, the more wiggle room there is. If you have more clothes in your suitcase than there are days you’ll be there, you might want to think twice about packing an outfit more than once (your choices are often limited to the clothes you have worn already, and you don’t want to repeat the same outfit every day

What To Wear On Vacation: A Dress Code That's Stylish And Comfortable

Packing for a vacation, however, is not quite so relaxing as the vacay itself. Filling a suitcase for your vacation means deciding exactly what you want to wear every day of your trip in advance. Especially for the indecisive chronic over-packers among us, this process can be extremely harrowing. Packing for a trip doesn’t have to be a horrible, dreaded chore. In fact, once you break it down to a simple science, you’ll be a stylish, vacay-packer expert in no time.

The Basics of Vacay Packing

Start by working out your basics: the “go-tos” that will help you blend seamlessly into your new surroundings. The best way to start this process is to think about what you’re going to need during your vacation and compare that to what you need to wear. What do you want to bring with you? Do you want to wear something lightweight or wear it with other items in your suitcase? Which pair of shoes will go with the outfit you’re packing? Also, how many items will you really need? You don’t want to fill your suitcase with too many options because that might make the process much harder when you get to your destination and can’t find that one perfect outfit. Also, it will also just end up making you uninspired because your suitcase is completely packed.

The Uniform Elegant, Comfortable and Stylish

If there’s one thing we all want out of life, it’s comfort, comfort, comfort. Fortunately, when it comes to vacation planning, what you choose to wear has an equal role to play in making you comfortable on your trip. You’re on vacation, after all, so you’re not in the office. You want to feel relaxed and comfortable, you want to wear clothes that you can’t (or don’t want to) pull off at your desk. What you wear on vacation doesn’t have to be anything particularly stylish, though. With a little creativity, you can wear clothes that not only fit you perfectly, but also wear you perfectly. This is where it’s important to keep your mind open and to not be afraid to get a little creative. You don’t have to buy something you wouldn’t normally wear. Trust us.

Mix-Match Mix-Up The Power of Packing Light

We know that packing for a trip isn’t easy. After all, there’s no point in spending a little time getting ready if you’ll be getting ready all day long. So how can you simplify the packing process, keep it organized, and make sure you’ll actually be ready to go when your plane lands? This packing hack is one of the simplest yet most effective. Instead of taking a ton of different items, try packing less, but with way more useful pieces. By focusing on packing items that can go with anything you have in your closet, you can cut down on how many items you bring, and ensure that your bag is full of the essential, never-again-bought-in-another-country essentials. “Less is more,” a phrase every vacation-goer should live by.

Get Out of Town Outerwear for the Season

Once you’ve decided what you want to wear, it’s time to figure out what you’ll need. First and foremost, buy new clothes for your trip. Unless you’re embarking on a tropical getaway with zero need to shower, you’ll most likely wear some semblance of what you were wearing before your vacay. Unless you’re one of those people who’s comfortable while wearing a bathing suit 24 hours a day, in which case, good luck with that. Sweater Weather Is Officially Over Giphy Sweater weather is for casual brunches, so the fashion stakes are high. This means that you have to break out new pieces, and we’re not talking about some washed-out unisex cotton sweater. Sure, maybe you want to buy a new sweater, but to make a statement, that sweater should be fitted and of the proper colors for the season.
