I’m looking for a few key pieces to take on a summer trip to Edinburgh, London, and Paris – preferably pieces I can mix and match…
There are definitely a few key pieces I would be packing. First, a simple black dress would be really useful; a drop hem style is something I’m really into right now, like this one from COS. Longer denim shorts are big this summer and I think they would could be useful – you could dress them up or down, and they work just as well with flats as they do with a small heel. When it comes to footwear, a simple, padded leather flip flop in black is a versatile choice. Because your trip includes the UK, this means unpredictable weather and some walking, so I would also take a pair of trainers. My favourites are the Nike Cortez in brown. I’d also pack some striped cotton trousers, like this subtle logo pair by Rotate Birger Christensen. Similarly, a plain grey sweatshirt is an essential layering piece for travelling. Finally, I’d take a useful, dark brown Dragon Diffusion (or similar) woven bag.
