TRAVELLING? : The Art of Packing Styliciously

Sometimes you just have that quick trip that would last for a few days and you really don't want to take too much with you. You are in luck as we will be dealing with that today.
We're taking our inspiration from Demi Moore who is  looking every bit the classy airport chic traveling light.

Day One: for the trip, whether you are flying or traveling by other means.
Isabel Marant 
Karl Lagerfeld

Lot78
Lanvin
Day two, Meetings: you want to look corporate and chic  for this.
Rick Owens
ACNE
Giuseppe Zanotti

you re-purpose the jacket that was worn the day before to get a structured and formal look. All the clothes are neatly arranged in the hotel wardrobe or wherever you are staying and the bag used for the trip is also re-purposed as a daytime purse. 


Day 2 Night (Switcheroo):  for a the perfect night look: lose the day purse and the jacket, add some accessories and you're ready for a Night out with the girls. 
Carolina Bucci
Jimmy Choo

Anita KO

Ippolita

Michael Kors




Day 3, The trip back home: wear the jean that was worn the first day, you can wear the jacket or just sling it across your arm in case you're cold and to save space in your bag.
Lanvin
Alexander Wang
Lot78

Celine
Marc Jacobs

TIPS: All the clothes are of light fabrics and can easily be folded into the mini-travel bag/Daytime Purse. Put all your beauty products in small travel jars+ essential make-up in an accessory bag. ensure to put your shoes in their shoe bags and place them well in the bag. Fold clothes by  rolling them  into themselves, helps create more space. Don't forget to air out your clothes especially the ones that will be re-purposed to give that fresh feel.

Voila! you have been able to travel light whilst maintaining your styliciousness, and you didn't even have to check in or drag your luggage around.

have a beautiful weekend,
xoxo.
