As
much as I love travelling, I absolutely hate packing! I hate having to sit
buried under of pile of clothes, trying to decide which clothes I really need
for the trip and which of my outfits are simply going to be the white elephants
on my trip. I’m guessing that a lot of you probably also have a hard time
deciding what to pack for your vacations. Of course, depending on the type of
trip, your packing list would inevitably vary a little bit. For instance, you would
have to take along a tube of mosquito repellent on a hiking or backpacking trip
but definitely not on a luxury holiday where you’d be staying in a five star
hotel! ;)
However
I believe that every woman should have a couple of staple outfits and items in
their luggage regardless of the type of trip they’re going on.
A
couple of basic tops are a must for any trip. You should take along a couple of
casual tank tops for when you go out sight-seeing or shopping. Two pairs of denim
or khaki shorts, as well as two pairs of jeans should suffice for a 7-10 day
trip. One or two casual sundresses would be perfect for brunches at nice
restaurants. Importantly you should always have one stylish
cocktail dress for if you get invited to a fancy dinner. After all, you
never know who you’re going to meet on your trip and where you’re going to get
invited. ;) Also, don’t forget to pack your swimmies and a snazzy beach
cover-up for when you hit the beach or the hotel pool.
Remember
you should have suitable footwear to pair with your outfits. Take along with
you a cute pair of flip-flops or sandals for everyday wear. Make sure they’re a
comfortable and versatile pair that you can wear with your sundresses as well
as jeans and shorts. You should also have one pair of heels that you can pair
with your cocktail dress.
Lastly,
makeup and beauty products are a must even if you’re going on a backpacking
trip! ;) Don’t you always want to look like a million bucks? Aside from the
usual toiletries, also pack a tube of sunscreen, basic foundation, powder, some
lip-gloss or lipstick and eyeliner and you’re
good to go!
