Summer Travel Capsule

A key to a successfully packed suitcase is selecting great pieces. There are so many methods out there, but the best way to choose your items is to find multiple ways to wear the same pieces. Below you will find a classic stripe tee, shorts and denim, two dresses, and a cardigan to wear multiple ways as you travel this summer. I hope this list inspires you to add to your closet or make the most of some items you already own.

When in doubt, follow my 16 Piece Travel Capsule formula:
5 tops
2 layers ( sweaters, jackets)
1 large scarf
4 bottoms ( jeans, pants, skirt)
1 dress
3 pairs of shoes
