One kid is cleaning her room and the other is in the bath so I have about an hour of “quiet” time to get this done. My youngest stays in the tub until her skin is shrivelled so I may in fact have little longer. Especially since it is so hot and humid today, she’ll want to hang in the cool water with Spongebob playing on the iPad (up on the counter away from the tub). Yesterday while I was exchanging my trench coat back to the original style I exchanged already (I’m a pain in the ass, I know) I had to walk past H&M. We did a quick run in because I am looking for a black long sleeve dress for Merle’s Halloween costume and I am hitting up all the reasonably priced places I can think of. They didn’t have one, or even one that I could alter to work but they did have the relaxed fit, Led Zeppelin t-shirt that I have waited to hit the Canadian stores. I spotted in the U.S. online shop a while back and was beginning to think it wasn’t coming here. It was $19.99 here but is currently on sale for $9 in the States (you lucky people). It’s a great shirt, a looser fit, in a soft cotton, with a cool graphic. Definitely an awesome deal.
Today I have 20 outfits that I put together using the pieces in the What to Pack for Germany in Fall packing list post. The trip is for 10 days so I figured 20 different outfit options would cover most bases (10 outfits at the top and 10 at the bottom). You may notice that it appears I have 3 different purses in this packing list (I always just bring two maximum) but the brown bag is actually reversible to black so you have more versatility and options on the trip.
Below is a breakdown of all the pieces that I used to make these outfits. They are from the original packing list post. Note that a couple of these outfits will be your travel outfits. All of my packing lists include the travel outfits; they are not extra clothes in addition to what is on the list.
- Five tops of varying styles, colours, and fabrics; one graphic t-shirt, a versatile blouse in a solid colour, a striped shirt. a darker, print blouse, and a long sleeve with fun details (like the bell sleeves on this one).
- Several sweaters; a black pullover, and oversized sweater, and a cardigan.
- A blazer (works to dress up outfits in a pinch and as a lightweight jacket in warmer temperatures) and a mid-weight jacket.
- Three bottoms; I chose a blue denim, and grey/black denim, and a black trouser. I picked ankle skimming denim so that you don’t have to worry about length and shoe issues (like only being able to wear pants with certain shoes because they are too long).
- One versatile dress; a black wrap style is classic and easy to dress up and down.
- Accessories; a knit scarf, and a lighter weight scarf, a wool hat (or a knit one and gloves if it is going to be colder), and sunnies. I never leave home without sunglasses.
- Three pairs of shoes; one pair of sneakers, a low-cut boot, and flats.
- Two purses, a tote (this one is reversible from black to brown which makes it very versatile), and a crossbody.
