Dark Neutrals Sets That Create a Simple Silhouette

Neutral sets are incredibly versatile, especially for travelling in cooler weather.

Over the years, I've discovered their immense practicality.

The key lies in their adaptability—by simply adding a bold print accessory, you can transform your outfit from one day to the next.
 

This style hack not only saves you from packing excessive clothing but also teaches a valuable lesson in smart styling.

It emphasises the power of strong accessories in elevating a basic outfit - maximizing efficiency during your travels.

Five quick cold weather packing tips to make your travel experience smoother:
 

1. Plan Outfits: Before packing, plan your outfits for each day of your trip. Coordinate pieces that can be mixed and matched to create multiple looks from fewer items. Take a photo of each flat lay of each outfit and number it for the day in your camera roll. No matter how good you think your memory is, once you arrive to a new location, your memory triggers will reset.
 

2. Roll Clothes: Instead of folding clothes, roll them to save space and reduce wrinkles. This method also makes it easier to see all your clothing options at a glance if your accommodation is short on hangers or hanging space.
 

3. Use Packing Cubes: Organize your belongings in packing cubes to keep similar items together and maximize space in your luggage. This also makes it easier to unpack and find what you need during your trip.
 

4. Pack Essentials First: Start by packing essential items such as toiletries, medications, and travel documents in a separate pouch. This ensures you have everything you need at hand without digging through your luggage. I recommend adding this pouch to your carry on tote bag along with one set of spare underwear and your most favourite pieces of jewellery (or cherished clothing items). Losing your luggage on the first day can be a calm experience when you have your special pouch safe and sound.
 

5. Minimise Shoes and Coats: These take up a lot of space, so pack only the essential pairs that are versatile and suitable for the activities you have planned. Wear your bulkiest pair of shoes and largest coat during travel to save space in your suitcase.
 

Classic sets in your best neutrals and staple colours can help streamline your packing process, optimise luggage space, and make your trip more organised and enjoyable.
