These are 30 outfit options to go with the 3 week packing list from last post. Spain and Italy can get really hot in July, but at night they cool so it’s best to always bring a sweater and light jacket. Outfit #1 I planned out as the travel outfit, it includes some of the heavier/bulkier items leaving less to pack. Although Spain and Italy are relatively modest in fashion (there are always exceptions), wearing shorts and sleeveless shirts is acceptable and as long as you are not visiting any religious sites. Walking through Pompeii or old Roman ruins you won’t look out ofplace in a pair of shorts, but if you plan on visiting many of the beautiful old churches it is generally required that you cover your shoulders and legs. Women can usually get away with capris/culottes, and mid length skirts/dresses. It is easy to bring an oversized scarf with you to cover your shoulders since it will fit easily in to your purse, and because they take up no room in your suitcase it might be a good idea to bring a couple for variety. If there is a chance you might visit a site with a dress code then make sure you plan your outfit accordingly. Most places will have a sign posted on site if there are dressing requirements, but it is always a good idea to check online beforehand so you are prepared.
Pompeii is really high on my to-see list. Have you ever been there?
As usual I put the outfit options to go with each packing list in another post since I generally complete each at different times. These twenty options go with the Business trip list from last post, but you can easily make more. I stopped at 20 because the trip is for 3 weeks, and I figured that this would be enough outfits to cover the duration.
This post doesn’t obviously cover all business trips, but this one is focused on laid back business casual looks for a three-week on site work trip. When everyone around dresses very casual it’s easy to follow suit but sometimes you want to look just a little more put together, and this is what I was trying to active with these looks. Still very casual and laid back but put together in a more professional way. A few simple pieces paired together can give you a more professional look with little effort.
Today is Canada Day so I am hoping we can squeeze a little family outing even though rain is in the forecast. Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians far and wide.
Over the last week I put together a back to school wardrobe for women over 35, a 30 days in Italy in October packing list from the wardrobe selections, and today I am posting the last part, a 30 outfit options to go with the packing list. Having thirty different outfits to cover different weather and outings with room to make more, would mean you wouldn’t have to repeat an outfit the entire trip if you chose not to (which you probably will because we all do).
The climate and temperatures may range from Northern Italy to Southern but it remains relatively warm and sunny throughout October so light jackets, t-shirts, sweaters, and dresses will all work. I included as many pieces in larger size ranges that I could find to make everything available to a range of body types. It was fun pulling these pieces together through these three posts and I can’t wait to do it again.
Thank you Andrea for the idea. I hope my ideas helped and that you have an amazing trip.
This post is the second part to the What to Pack for New Zealand – Teen Edition packing list that was a request from a high school student who is going on a school sports trip. I put together 30 outfit options from the pieces that include casual outing wear, workout/sportswear, and some dressier options. Since this trip is taking place in the New Zealand winter time the pieces will all layer well. I included leggings as both sportswear and too be layered under the skirt and dress to make them seasonal. In Auckland, New Zealand the winter averages around 11°C which is a relatively comfortable weather if you dress appropriately. I don’t think I duplicated any outfits but I may have and missed it, so if I did then I apologize. Thirty options for a 3 week trip means that you would not have to wear the same outfit twice if you are so inclined, but we all know that we generally gravitate to something we feel the most comfortable and our best in so I would expect to wear several outfits on rotation for a trip this long. My wish is that this post gave you some ideas on how to piece together the items I included so that you can reproduce similar ideas within your own wardrobe. I hope that this trip is a wonderfully memorable experience for you. Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
