how to make the most of your wardrobe on vacation and beyond

August is here, and with it comes that final call for adventure. Whether you're sneaking in a last-minute trip to a sun-drenched beach or jetting off to a charming European city before the fall chill sets in, the thrill of an impromptu getaway is unbeatable. But the reality of last-minute packing can be daunting. How do you pack light without sacrificing your style? We've got a few easy tricks up our sleeve to help you pack smart, not hard, for your final summer escape.

tip 1:

The all-in-one kimono

When you’re packing for a trip, every item needs to earn its place in your suitcase. That's why we love a beautiful, versatile kimono. It's the ultimate multitasker that can easily transition from a vacation essential to a September staple.

For your trip, drape it over your swimsuit as a chic beach cover-up, or wear it with denim shorts and a simple tank top for a relaxed evening stroll. When you return, the same kimono can be styled over a simple dress or even worn with your favorite work trousers and a silk camisole for an effortless, bohemian-inspired office look. Its lightweight fabric and flowing silhouette make it the perfect piece to keep you looking put-together and feeling comfortable, no matter the occasion.

tip 2:

elevate your apple watch

We all rely on our tech, especially on vacation. But an everyday black watch band can sometimes feel a bit out of place when you're sipping an Aperol spritz in Italy or relaxing by the sea. This is where an elevated Apple Watch band comes in.

It's a small change that makes a huge difference. A chunky gold or silver chain band can add sophisticated glam to your resort wear, while a bohemian-inspired leather strap is perfect for blending into the vibe of a coastal town. Choosing an Apple Watch band that complements your accessories allows you to stay connected and track your steps without sacrificing your style. It's the ultimate blend of practicality and panache.

tip 3:

The Indispensable Multi-Purpose Scarf

Packing a heavy shawl or cardigan can take up valuable space in your luggage (space you might need for that perfect souvenir). That's why we never travel without a lightweight, printed scarf. It's a true packing hero.

A beautiful scarf can serve as a stylish beach wrap, a shawl for cooler evenings, or even a chic accessory to add a pop of color to a simple outfit. Traveling to a European city? Many churches and landmarks require your shoulders to be covered, and a light scarf is the perfect solution. It's easy to tuck into your purse, and you'll be prepared for any situation without being weighed down by extra layers.
