Your hot holiday travel wardrobe ! #jetsetstyle

By  |  4 Comments

Off to a hot holiday in Italy, France or the Greek Islands?
Maybe you are going to somewhere warm closer to home.
Woo Hoo:
Time to pack your summer wardrobe !
Time to pack carry on.
No point in flying anywhere with checked in luggage these days.
Perfect for when you only have a warm weather wardrobe.
(Although when you see my list below you may need a suitcase. Haha lols)
What to pack ?
Of course you need to stick to chic FiFi approved colours.
No surprises there !
It means more versatility and more mileage from your wardrobe.
I’ve chosen neutrals with white and touches of black, blue and tan.
But if you packed a wardrobe of all white linen it would so chic.
No irony, easy to wash ! Anything here is fab.
You will look chic. Get dressed with your eyes closed.
Which is great when you’re on holidays!

Hint: Before you go take photos of your outfits. Your family will thank you.
I like to roll my clothes, put shoes in cloth bags ( thanks COS!) and use those zip cubes.

 

 

 

Here’s your checklist !
Wide leg white pants: Core piece. Wear to beach. Out the dinner. Slouchy is key.
Wide leg beige chinos: Wear on plane with a knit. Wear out to dinner. Sight seeing.
White oversized shirt: Toss over your white tank like a jacket.Or tucked into your jeans.
Blue shirt: might be stripe. Adds colour. Loves white. Adores tan. In love with denim.
Statement tee top: For going out. For when you want to look more polished.
white tank: Goes with everything. Under a shirt. With chinos. skirts. Under a dress.
A shoulder pad tee: It’s chicer than a plain tee and looks cool. Or this one . Wear every day.
Black tank Ditto. Pivotal to your wardrobe. Cut away is most flattering cut.
A strapless bustier top: So chic but casual for going out with chinos or jeans , linen pants
A waistcoat Gives coverage of a blazer without arms ! Chic. Cool. Polished (as a set with pants)

A one shoulder beach dress: Throw it on from beach to bar. This is chic too. Best with flats.
Some black beach pants:  Wide leg, drawstring or cargo is good too. With a swimsuit and white shirt.
A denim skirt: Handy with tops instead of a dress. Maxi is good. A line.
A white casual maxi dress: Wear every day when it’s hot.
A black maxi dress: Wear every day when it’s hot. With flats. For going out too.
A neutral knit: wear on plane over white tee. Over a dress. ( Or white denim jacket)
A kaftan: Long sleeve. Long length. I have this..it’s one sale , love it. Go for the biggest size ..
Or white cotton shirt dress . It’s a toss it over swimsuit kind of thing.
A stripe strapless beach dress :  It’s blue. It’s easy ! It’s the only print I like.
White denim culottes : Not shorts or jeans but nearly ! To wear instead of short shorts. Just sayin.

Oh and if you need a blazer to throw over your shoulders ( Not at the beach but at bar!) this is great and here.

Accessories.
Cross body bag : With a zip. In tan. To wear every day. On the plane. Out shopping.
A cute small clutch for night is chic, and small beaded bag will add instant joosh.
A big tote in canvas or a straw tote: So chic. Wear with everything. Beach holiday 101.

Sneakers: Of course. Go for white and neutrals. Bensimon are great. Easy.
Chunky sandals : Love them in tan or black. Birks are fab.
Silver sandals are fabulous. They will instantly joosh black,white and neutrals.  A must buy.
Sunglasses: Brown, neutrals or white. Aviators and catseyes.
A bucket hat: this is a fab reversible hat .But these are the best chicest hats and packable too.
Otherwise buy a big beach hat when you get there !
