Savvy Travel: Packing for France

Everytime we go on a vacation, I tell myself that THIS WILL BE THE TRIP that I pack lighter and more efficiently.  I actually started out well and then what happened (which is what always happens) is that I started panicking and then ended up throwing last minute things into the suitcase on top of what I've already packed.  I am still pretty impressed with myself that my suitcase only weighed 43lbs when we got to the airport as to my normal 50+ lbs (yes I admit it).  

What does all that mean?  It means that I have plenty of room to bring home French beauty products and maybe some new additions to the wardrobe.  Maybe Carlos would have liked me to have already maxxed out my space prior to coming to France. 

But I did start out with good intentions and a nice base of fun prints, denim and linen pieces that I thought could all be mixed and matched nicely together.  The Cloth & Stone denim tunic dress is such a great piece because it is so versatile and can be worn as a tunic with jeans or leggings or as a dress in warmer weather.  But is also the softest piece of denim that I have ever owned.  I love it!  I also bought my first jumpsuit by Ella Moss.  I'm in love with the print and it's such a comfortable and effortless piece.  Throw on a statement necklace, some heels and your ready to go out!

Since I'm currently on our trip, I will have to come back and link to the pieces of clothing and where you can find them when I get back!

Au Revoir Mes Amis,

  1. I myself am currently in France, I pack as light as possible to bring back clothes, and lots and lots of food! Not sure if you will be back for the Westfield event, but I hope we get to meet a bientot!
