Travel Capsule Wardrobe Packing Tips
Traveling can be a bit of an overwhelming experience but using a travel capsule wardrobe is one way to make travel easier. Packing less clothing allows you to travel with just a carry on helps with overwhelm. This can help ease out your stress so you can have more fun while traveling. A capsule wardrobe is a way to simplify packing for a trip by having core items you can mix and match. Packing for a trip is so much easier with a capsule wardrobe
A travel capsule wardrobe includes essentials such as comfy shoes, jeans, and appropriate tops for any occasion. You can always add stylish accessories like jewelry or hats into your suitcase without taking up too much space!
You will want to bring comfortable clothes you’ll wear often. No one wants to wear uncomfortable clothing and shoes on vacation. This travel capsule wardrobe shows how you can be comfortable and still look cute.
We included comfy joggers that would be great to wear on the plane or a car trip. I love a good crossbody bag when on vacation and we included two. One converts from a backpack to a crossbody so it is super versatile.
One easy way to keep your clothes organized and wrinkle-free on your trip is to use packing cubes. I love these eBags slim packing cubes. You will be shocked by how much you can fit in each cube.
You will also want to pack a light waterproof jacket if necessary or a jean jacket or cardigan.
It is important to choose a color palette that consists primarily of neutral colors, which will work well for all the pieces in your wardrobe. We have examples below but be sure to grab our make your own capsule guide below.
