What To Pack For 10 Days In The South Of France Day 5

May 9, 2014 by suzanne carillo

Top Five Favourite Fashions Fridays will return at the end of the month.

Day 4 Outfit – Day Trip 

It hasn't been decided yet where we will go yet, but I'm pretty sure we will take at least one day trip  during our stay. 

Casual summer style for vacation

If it is too warm I won't wear the vest. 

Distressed jeans mens vest summer style

I like having another option for a hat and this one doesn't mess up my hair as much.

Menswear inspired style for women

One thing I always do when packing for a trip is I try on all of my outfits. 

Don't make the same mistake my husband made, he packed some pants that no longer fit him and had to make due with one pair of pants during our vacation last year. 

Also you may *think* that it is going to look good on you, but until you actually try it on you will never know.  Over the year our tastes and bodies change. What you liked last year might not work as well this year.

Do you try on all your clothes and outfits when packing for a trip?

What To Pack For 10 Days In The South Of France Day 4

May 8, 2014 by suzanne carillo

Outfit Day 3  Chagall Museum

Vacation outfit ideas anthropologie bird skirt H&M polkadot blouse

 I'm not showing a bag here because when I'm travelling I like to only carry the camera and get my husband to take a backpack.  I have fibromyalgia and walking all day while carrying anything on my shoulders can make me feel ill. 

Anthroplogie a line embroidered bird skirt

This cotton a-line skirt (an oldie but a goody) from Anthropologie has been one of my favourites for years.  A-line skirts are for me, the most forgiving, comfortable and flattering skirts to wear. 

The top is an old one from H&M.

 What to wear on vacation in france

Have you noticed that I have worn 3 different pairs of shoes so far on my trip? These ones are Clarks and are probably the most comfortable shoes I own, next to my running shoes. 

Yeah…I have a problem with packing lots of shoes, but I also have a reason, I like to switch out my shoes when I'm walking so much. I am less likely to get blisters or sore feet by changing them every other day.  Often I take 5 pairs, this time I'm only taking 3 pairs. Progress!

What to pack for vacation in the south of france

How many pairs of shoes do you usually take when going on vacation?
