I’ll be honest, packing isn’t my strong point. I usually sit in the car up to the airport listing off all the things I already know I have forgotten. This time it was my travel steamer & PJ’s. Lucky I enjoy shopping really & the fact I have forgotten to pack something generally means an excuse to go and buy a shiny new version.
One thing I am good at however, is putting together outfits suitable for shopping, drinking & eating. So if you’re going to Paris to do a bit of that; A – can we be friends? & B – you’re reading the right blog post.
TRAVELLING OUTFIT
We flew to Paris early morning so when we arrived we didn’t have access to our Air BnB. This meant flying in an outfit I was happy to wear from 2am – 4pm when we got access to change. For me this meant a pair of slouchy denim jeans, fine knit jumper, Veja trainers & an oversized trench coat.
DINNER & DRINKS
After gaining access to the apartment it was a quick outfit change and straight back out to top up the wine & some amazing dinner, we sat outside at Cafe Ruc – which is definitely one of my favourite spots in Paris. I wanted to wear plenty of layers so I put on a jumper, blazer & trench coat, along with my new perfect nude heels.
COFFEE & SIGHT SEEING
We were super surprised to feel how sunny it was, and actually warm enough to sport a maxi dress *along with chunky boots & my trusty trench coat.
FINAL DAY
I wasn’t going to miss the opportunity to wear my new Sandro sale purchase, so I chucked that on for the morning with a pair of trainers & oversized sunnies and felt very Parisian. The great thing about packaging maxi dresses for trips like this is they generally fold up really small & then you can just steam them before wearing. (unless you forget your steamer, like me.) BTW – my steamer is amazing so I will link the one I use here too.
