What to Pack for a Weekend Trip in Summer

May 28, 2021Sara 3 Comments

A white background with a picture of a sunset, and a layout of what pieces to pack for a weekend trip in the summer.

I am starting back small. I don’t want to startle anyone away with the packing lists resurgence, but in reality, when I look at my blog analytics, it shows a growth in people searching for packing ideas.

I am assuming this means that a lot of people are starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel to the last year+, and are planning out some travel ideas.

I am wearing a white cropped t-shirt, wide leg trousers, and Le Specs Sunglasses

I am wearing a black sundress, and blue puffy sandals

I am wearing a black tiered midi dress, black dad sandals, a bum bag, and Le Spec Sunglasses

I am wearing a black cropped t-shirt, track pants, and dad sandals

I call this week’s series of outfits the “what I wore during a heatwave because I don’t wear shorts.” I am happy to say that the temperature normalized today, so I got to wear layers again.

Have you found a good summer bag yet? I have been on the hunt for one, but I am not sure if I want to do the woven basket bag thing or not.

As I was sitting here typing this the building’s air conditioning kicked in, so hallelujah I will be able to sleep in comfort tonight. It was a hot few days that I thought was going to continue until at least Monday or Tuesday.

I know I bitch about the heat a lot but jeez, I’d love to live in a temperate city. 18°C is my ideal, so I’m not really sure where that would be but if I had the means and the ability I’d move in a heartbeat.

Summer Capsule Wardrobe Essentials

Summer Capsule Wardrobe Essentials

I almost didn’t finish this summer capsule wardrobe essentials post this week. The motivation due to heat has been sucked right out of me. I am writing this as the puddle that I have melted into due to my apartment being 29.5°C right now. The building hasn’t completed the transition to air conditioning yet and it is awful.

I can’t believe that I lived without central air conditioning as a child and that I actually went outside in the heat and enjoyed myself…because I sure as shit won’t do that now.

I am wearing an oversized lack tee, leather trousers, a black blazer, and Prada Loafers

I am wearing a black dress, cardigan, leather jacket, and New Balance 327

I am wearing a white cropped tee, joggers, a trench coat, New Balance 327, and Le Spec sunglasses

I am wearing a white cropped tee, high waist jeans, a red vintage band jacket, and Prada Loafers

I am wearing a cream sundress, oversized leather jacket, Le Spec sunglasses, and black sports sandals

Surprise, surprise, I actually documented 5 outfits of the day this week. That never happens so I thought it would be worth pointing out. I think the midweek cropped t-shirt motivated me.

I was really warm today which on one hand was nice, but on the other hand sucks because:
a) It means that the summer weather grossness is coming, and
b) The building’s air conditioning won’t be completely transferred to cool air until the 25th so sleeping is really uncomfortable. This side of the building gets a lot of sun, so it gets warm really quickly.

My husband texted me today and asked if I would go down to the front desk to pick up his zombie that arrived in the mail. I was like, “zombie? Huh?” I had no idea what he was talking about but I went and grabbed it. The thing was wrapped up in a way that made it look like a frozen turkey so my curiosity was piqued.

I left it on the counter for him to open when he got home from work and he just walked in the door about half an hour ago so it was a long wait to what the hell this thing was.
