How to Pack Luxuriously but Thoughtfully
How to pack luxuriously, but Thoughtfully. What does that mean to you? To me, it means packing light by adding my favorite pieces, and making them as versatile as possible. I have the tendency to occasionally overpack, with the intentions of wearing all of the different looks I created. I’ve learned that this only causes more problems, because I end up wondering if I properly packed everything back up when leaving. I’ve put together a checklist on how to pack luxuriously, but thoughtfully below to make your weekend getaway duffle bags light weight, and simple.
• Versatility. What pieces do you have that can be worn in multiple ways? My suggestion would be to pack a matching set. This could be a black, square neck bralette, and a maxi skirt. I love this combination because each garment can be mix and matched to create another look. For example, for a date night out, pair the black bralette, with a black mini skirt and noir lace up heels.
I would also be sure to include a maxi dress, mini dress, a pair of jeans, leggings and at least two basic tee shirts. I adore the skims bodysuits, specifically their “Fits Everybody Collection”.

• Lightweight and Layers. This of course depends on where you are going and for how long, but layers are always a good idea. Layering pieces that I love during the warmer months are oversized blazers, and knit cardigans. I recommend choosing linen, cotton or merino wool fabrics as they are breathable and airy for the hot summer sun.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

• Comfort & Realistic Shoes. I always bring at least one pair of nude or black heels, one pair of sandals or mules, and a pair of sneakers when traveling. Shop my favorites below.⠀

• As for accessories, I always recommend a crossbody, or shoulder bag to keep your belongings close to you while running around. For jewelry, I always prefer to keep it simple by packing a few everyday, versatile pieces such as gold hoops and a timeless choker. Just in case!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
