Out of town work trips can present a bit of a challenge since a mix of business wear (for conferences) and casual outfits (for the long car ride and after-hour functions) is required. While my Nashville work conference ins only four days, the fluctuating weather and variety of aforementioned outfit requirements means I needed to pack a simply as possible to be able to fit everything into a small
rolling suitcase.
Just like
last year's list, I have 10 items (not including accessories) to mix and match. Below are seven outfit combinations, but I could easily see adding a few more - like the
lace top with the
tan cardigan and
jeans or the
green sweater over
blue ruffle popover paired with
dress pants - as alternative looks. Or -inspired by
this look from J. Crew Factory - the
blue ruffled popover under the
stripe dress. Because, I know myself, and sometimes I like to mix things up from what I've originally planned. :)
Since it's supposed to rain pretty much the whole time we're there, I added my favorite polka dot
umbrella to stay dry and my
new funnel coat to stay toasty warm at night.

This is incredible!! I struggle so much with remixing in this way for work trips - or rather, I don't think it out with such detail and then end up overpacking!! Pinning this for future inspiration for sure :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit of an over packer myself. :) I originally started these lists to help me from throwing EVERYTHING into my suitcase!
DeleteCan't go wrong with a lot of stripes! Love the lace top too. It's amazing what 10 items can do - and always nice when it makes way more outfits than you actually need, so you have options - without overpacking!
ReplyDeleteI definitely ended up changing things a bit from what I originally intended, but that's the beauty of mixing and matching - lots of outfit possibilities. :)
DeleteThese types of mix and match packing list posts are my favorites! Between you and Anne I should never have to stress about packing for a trip again! I love the stripes + dots mix you have going on here!

DeleteNewer fashion trends will come and go – the one taking the market by storm is the Denim Jacket for Women. The highest trending women's fashion this year, it is a unique distinct garment slated to offer couture, convenience and ease for Women who are really fashion and Style conscious. Compliment this jacket with a flowy skirt or slacks and then sit back to enjoy the compliments.
