Some exceptions: you want to check out the raging ocean-front club scene in Barcelona (you’ll definitely want heels for that), or you want to feel ultra romantic in Paris. Many European cities are more casual than you would encounter here in the U.S. Even at night, you’ll likely do a fair amount of walking, so keep this in mind. Also, note: most places you can easily get by without a pair of heels. There’s a reason most capsule wardrobes limit footwear choices, you really don’t need that many! When traveling to Europe, you truly need one pair of boots, and one pair of sneakers. I brought only basics that I felt great in, and the result meant getting up and out the door to explore in less than 10 minutes.ģ. On my Ireland trip, I packed only black, grey, and stripes. Sticking to classic basics also ensures you won’t look back at photos and think, “GOD what was I wearing!?” Remember, there is nothing chicer than all-black. This results in dozens of outfit combinations and virtually zero effort required to get dressed every day. Every single item you pack must also match every other item you pack. (If you don’t love something, why do you own it anyway?)Ģ. Instead, you’ll re-wear the things you do love, and will have wasted space for nothing. Like an capsule wardrobe, you wan’t to focus only on what you adore.
Do not pack anything you don’t absolutely love–you won’t wear it.
#ULTIMATE CAPSULE WARDROBE CHECKLIST PLUS#
Read on for my Spring in Europe packing list, plus some extra tips to keep in mind as you prepare for your vacation!ġ. Just adapt these tips to fit your journey, lifestyle, (and of course, anticipated weather) and you will never look back. Of course, this can work no matter where you’re going–Europe, South America, or a road trip down Route 66. How? By creating your own travel capsule wardrobe.Įven if capsule wardrobes aren’t your thing in real life, they are a total lifesaver when it comes to packing for a trip. And yes–you can definitely get away with just a carry-on, no matter how long your trip may last. Creating a carry-on packing list for a week+ might seem daunting, but it’s definitely easier than you think! I’ve since replicated this for other European adventures and I’m never sorry! (For example, you can see my Paris Packing List right here!) It was hands down, THE BEST decision I’ve ever made. The first time I did a carry-on capsule wardrobe it was to my trip to Ireland with just a backpack.
#ULTIMATE CAPSULE WARDROBE CHECKLIST UPDATE#
Guessing you’ve landed on this post because you need some help packing for an upcoming adventure! Hooray! This post was originally published a couple years back, but I do update it often–you’ll notice this is written with a winter/spring wardrobe in mind, but there are still tips you can come away with that will work easily for summer travel as well! Note: I frequently update this post with the most up-to-date links for easy shopping, so if you see something in the collage above that isn’t linked below, it’s because it’s sold out!
