What’s in My Suitcase: The Ultimate Travel Wardrobe Tips from Remi Label

Traveling can be both exciting and a bit overwhelming, especially when it comes to packing. At Remi, we believe in creating timeless, versatile pieces that are perfect for any adventure. Our goal is to help you pack a suitcase full of clothes that you can wear multiple times, mix and match, and dress up or down depending on the occasion. Here’s a peek into the ultimate travel wardrobe.

Pro Packing Tips

1. Plan and Try On Outfits Before You Pack

Before you start packing, lay out all your outfits, including shoes and jewellery, and try them on. This helps ensure that everything goes together and you can mix and match your pieces to create multiple looks from a few items, which is key for efficient packing. A great idea I’ve seen is to take pictures on your phone of the many different ways to wear and style the staples in your suitcase so you can refer to this on your travels. Then see how it packs in your suitcase. Does anything need to go? I like to roll my outfits and use labeled travel cubes, which is so efficient and organised. You can keep it all in order, e.g., your tops together in one travel cube, pants in another, dresses, underwear, and not have to rifle through your whole suitcase to find something.

2. Choose Wrinkle-Resistant Fabrics

Select clothes made from fabrics that don’t crease too much and require minimal maintenance. Opt for materials that don’t wrinkle badly, so a quick steam can sort them out, ensuring that you look polished without the hassle of constant ironing.

Shoes for Every Occasion

1. Comfortable Walking Shoes

Comfort is key when it comes to travel footwear. Pack a pair of stylish yet comfortable walking shoes that will keep your feet happy during long days of sightseeing.

 2. Elegant Evening Heels

For evenings out, pack a pair of elegant heels or dress shoes that are versatile and match multiple outfits in your suitcase to maximise space and options.

Accessories and Essentials

1. A Small Clothes Steamer

Your best friend while traveling is a small clothes steamer. I absolutely love my Kambrook lime green hand steamer. It’s super light for travel, heats up fast and  keeps your outfits looking fresh and wrinkle-free. If you don’t have room for a small steamer in your case another option is hang your clothes that don’t need a major iron in your bathroom while having a shower and the steam will refresh an outfit.

2. Mix-and-Match Accessories

Pack a selection of accessories that can easily transform your outfits. Scarves, statement jewelry, and belts are perfect for adding variety to your travel wardrobe without taking up much space.

Conclusion

Packing for a trip doesn’t have to be stressful. So next time you’re packing, remember to include these essential tips from Remi and enjoy your travels in style!
