I had the most amazing opportunity to visit Paris for a week with my childhood best friend. (She's a super smart PhD type and was presenting at a conference. She guest posted here.) It was a super wonderful amazing adventure filled with sightseeing, lots and lots of food and quality friend time.
Below are the 12 pieces plus shoes & accessories that I brought with me. I was only there for 5 days but the items I packed allowed me to have the potential for a bunch of different outfits. Over the next week I will show you 20 outfits that could be put together with the 12 pieces listed below.
To start - here's how I put together my packing list-
The method:
- Basics - First I pick some basics pieces to lay the foundation for the trip. I
try to pick my favorite go-to clothes. Clothes I know I wear over and
over. The ones that go with almost everything. For me, this usually
involves laying out favorite pair of jeans and favorite white blouse.
For the basics in this capsule wardrobe I have chosen are grey sweater, white blouse, little black dress, black skinny jeans and black cropped pants.

Yay!! Another one suitcase post!!! I truly adore these and look to them for inspiration when I am packing to go away!
ReplyDeleteAny chance that you'll ever do a "one suitcase - cruise vacation" post??!!! I always struggle with those - mainly due to the dress up factor each evening!
Thanks for all your hard work doing these posts!
The beach vacation One Suitcase was basically what I packed on the last cruise I went on. It was my casual clothes packing list and then I added two dresses (one formal and one nice) to complete what I needed.
DeleteBut I'd definitely try to do another one if I find myself with any warm weather plans!
You do such a fantastic, thorough job in putting these pieces together. It's really impressive. I'm really looking forward to seeing the outfits you came up with using the pieces!

Thanks!
DeleteGod I would never ever be able to travel with only two pair of shoes...
ReplyDeleteLimiting the number of shoes is definitely the hardest part!! There's definitely room for a few more pairs.
