Spring has the magical power of making everyone want to leave for a weekend, get away from winter and enjoy the view of the sea, lakes and cities to visit. The irrepressible desire to pack up and leave, often arose from the panic of “and now what should I pack?”. With the sudden changes in spring temperature, the days that pass from a dip in the sea or in the pool to sudden thunderstorms, a weekend bag always ends up becoming the entire pocket-sized closet … if we are okay with it!
The solution is to prepare the suitcase for a weekend out of town by thinking about looks, versatile and mixable with each other. The ideal is to make use of a series of passe-partout garments and accessories. Let’s see together what the essentials are and make them your next guideline for your weekend suitcase!
Jeans
Unmissable and suitable for any occasion, jeans are the first ever item. Prefer them comfortable and possibly loose fit, not only to keep up with the trends of the season but above all because they could become your exceptional ally for daytime walks, or the cool element of an evening outfit played down with a pair of sandals with heels.
Oversize Shirt
The double utility of the oversized shirt undoubtedly makes it an outfit-saving garment! Use it during the day as a dress if temperatures are high and you want to spend the day by the sea, lake or pool. If, on the other hand, you have preferred a city as a destination for your weekend, it is ideal for getting around comfortably, without suffering from the heat or, on the contrary, the cool breeze.
Anorak or Leather Jacket
The outfits can be chosen, the atmospheric changes cannot. In order not to be caught unprepared, a k-way or a leather jacket are essential when you leave for a spring weekend. PS. K-ways are very trendy this summer, among your love brands you will surely find the one that’s right for you.
Flat sandals and sneakers
You certainly won’t be the ones who go to the beach wearing sneakers, right? In your suitcase together with the latter, very useful for weekends in the city or afternoon walks, you cannot miss the flat, comfortable and fashion sandals to create a glam look without giving up a minimal and informal outfit.
Fishnet or canvas bag
How many of you have happened to leave for a weekend, decide to spend a day at the beach and have only that one beloved designer bag ready to ruin itself forever with sand and splashes of water? Here is the solution is to put an oversized mesh or canvas bag in your suitcase to contain everything you need for your relaxing day.
Swimsuit
Whether it’s bikini or one-piece, for those who still don’t feel like facing the most dreaded test of the summer, the swimsuit is TO BE WORN. Even if you have chosen a weekend in the city, who knows that the hotel where you are staying has a breathtaking swimming pool or a SPA ready to steal your heart?
Beanie or Bucket Hat
A hat can save the day in many situations: is it too hot? Cover your head, is it raining? You don’t want to ruin your hairstyle!
Sunglasses
Although it is now difficult to forget them as an integral part of all of us’ spring outfits, they are often the last thing we think about or take for granted that we have. To avoid the risk always put a pair in your suitcase!
Mini dress
Bring a pair for the day and one for the evening maybe midi, to wear during the day with flat sandals and oversized bag and in the evening with a leather jacket, sandals and mini bag.
