A weekend trip is the perfect time to master packing light. The secret is a small color palette and pieces that work together.
Clothes
- Two bottoms in neutral colors
- Three tops that match both bottoms
- One layer, like a denim jacket or cardigan
- One outfit for a nicer dinner
- Comfortable walking shoes plus one versatile pair
Essentials
- Travel-size toiletries in a clear bag
- Phone charger and power bank
- Medications and a small first-aid kit
- Reusable water bottle
Wear your bulkiest shoes and jacket on travel day to save space in your bag.
Before you leave
Check the weather and lay everything out on your bed. Then remove one item you probably will not use.
