This week I had the pleasure (and challenge) of putting together a packing list for one trip, 3 women, with three different styles. It is for a mother and her two daughters who will be taking a 3 week trip to Italy and Paris together as a graduation gift. How amazing is that?!

If you check out yesterday’s post What to Pack for Italy and Paris it is for a romantic style. That post also gives a little more detail on the trip. Today I am attempting to achieve a boho style with florals, flowy light fabrics, peasant style dresses,  off the shoulder tops, and flared and high-waisted pants. The shoes and accessories are leather, or woven and have a very relaxed boho vibe.

I put together 18 outfits but I could have made a lot more, so this list will easily accommodate a 3 week+ trip without repeating the same outfit. You may have noticed that I included a jean jacket as well as a light jacket and this is because a jean jacket to me is something that you toss over to complete an outfit (kind of like a blazer but casual) there is no real warmth in it and that is why I added another. One jacket will be more than enough if you want to lighten your suitcase even more though.

I hope that you like my picks and they help to inspire you for your upcoming trip.

I’m really digging those Minnetonka Boots, how about you?

I may or may not have bitten off more than I can chew this week so bear with me if I don’t get all the posts out exactly when I plan to. This week I have a request for a trip to Italy for three weeks with a 4 day stop in Paris. It is a graduation gift from a mom to her daughter (and another daughter will be going too). All three women have a completely different styles and my goal is to try to capture these a give one list per style.

The first is the mom, a romantic style with a little edge. She likes to harden up the softer colours with some edgier accessories. The colour palette consists of white, grey, pink, orchid and sea-foam. Sticking with darker or white denim, and casual dresses that have a definable waist.

The temperature range for when they are going are from the low teens to mid 30’s (in celsius) and can be rainy. The goal is the pack as light as possible while having enough options for the varying temperatures and activities they will be doing (lots of walking).

I’ve tried to include pieces that can be easily dressed up and down, are comfortable, and can work several purposes. The purple dress has a belt to have a defined waist but can also be left loose and worn over the swimsuit for a quick and easy beach cover up. I debated the shoes since the weather can get quite hot I thought sandals would be beneficial, but with all the walking and high chances of rain they might not be the best choice. I sometimes think shoe choices are the hardest, so plan them out well so you find the pairs that will be best suited to your trip.

The next two styles that will be coming up over the next couple of days (hopefully) are a boho style, and a modern grunge.

I also FINALLY made a Facebook page for my blog. I was trying to avoid it like the plague because I have way too much social media to control but it’s something I should have done two years ago. I’m now way behind the curve on that and I am kicking myself. Anyway, it’s here if you want to pop by for a like since I pretty much have none right now 😉

Do you have a particular “style” that you gravitate towards?
