With summer on the horizon, get a head start on your vacation planning. Whether you’re heading to beach-side towns where the surf waves are high or venturing through the winding roads of city escapes, packing has never been easier with our essential holiday kit.
If your vacation attire consists of oxford shirts, chino shorts and loafers then you’ll find plenty of preppy inspiration in Florida and the Amalfi Coast. A bright blazer with a softened shoulder-line will maintain smartness while still being comfortable – perfect for the elegant activities of yachting, a round of golf or a stroll down the pier. Look out for key details including pastel shades and lightweight linen for breathability.
There’s nothing like a classic summer holiday of sand, surf and swim. Bring out the optimism and energy of the sun in bright colours and playful prints. Opt for the failsafe combination of tees, neat swimming trunks, sunglasses and a hat during the day and as the sun goes down and the beers come out, layer up with a loose knit. For surf junkies looking for adrenaline inducing waves, we hear Hanalei, Hawaii, is perfect at this time of year.
A getaway spent cycling from the canals of Copenhagen to the mountains of Oslo requires a kit of the most functional pieces. Your packing list should include an array of practical items that don’t compromise on style - a printed windbreaker, cargo shorts and plenty of extra graphic tees will do the job nicely. Retain a bit of sporting finesse with a luxe backpack, perfect for carrying a change of clothes and other everyday essentials.
