Streamline your suitcase by focusing on hard-working favourites. A printed shirt screams “holiday” and can be worn buttoned up or open over a T-shirt. Our linen-blend chinos will be light and comfortable, no matter how hot your destination. Pack plenty of T-shirts: graphic styles are a hot trend and will add a playful edge to your summer outfit, while a multi-pack of plain T-shirts in classic colours is always a good idea. You’ll need a few pairs of shorts, too: our chino shorts are made from a super lightweight material that has an easy-to-iron finish, perfect for packing. For your feet, pack our comfy slip-on leather sandals, which will effortlessly take you from beach days to evenings out. A cotton baseball cap is a stylish way to prevent sunburn – the light sand colourway will go with everything you’ve packed.
Take some of the stress out of packing by planning ahead and taking simple steps to avoid any mishaps. Choosing the right luggage for your trip is important. Our suitcases come in either a hard or soft finish: choose hard if you want something sturdy and soft if you can’t help but overpack and need a little more space. Check out our suitcase-buying guide for more tips. Our three-piece make-up bag set is also great for keeping your products neat and tidy. Rolling, rather than folding, bulkier items can be a quick way to save space. Children love having their own travel bags, so keep little travellers happy with something comfy and practical, like one of our stylish backpacks, and fill it with everything they’ll need on the plane.
