A Peak Inside a Classic Woman’s Suitcase

Vacation season is just around the corner, and traveling is one of the things that a classic woman does best.  Vacations are not only a time to “get away from it all” but a chance to learn and explore by embarking on new experiences.  Although a classic woman does want to dress comfortably while on vacation, she does not want to sacrifice quality for comfort.  As a discerning shopper, she demands the best of both worlds and will settle for nothing less.  Knowing that down-time is crucial for a successful life, she plans her vacation accordingly and, consequently, prepares a travel wardrobe that is versatile, easy to care for and easy to pack. Of course the climate to which she is going and her particular agenda — the beach, a destination wedding, a cruise, or a series of Broadway plays — all determine whether her wardrobe will be more casual in nature or more dressy.  However, the criteria for the garments she chooses is the same — they must be high in craftsmanship and timeless in design.   In order to capitalize on getting the most wear out of the fewest number of clothes, the classic woman chooses a color family with which to build her travel wardrobe around,  thus allowing her the flexibility to mix-and-match pieces. Regardless of the destination, her suitcase will likely be packed with the following items:

  1. slacks (light weight for warmer weather)
  2. jeans  (white for warmer climates)
  3. knee length shorts/capris
  4. skirt
  5. polo shirts
  6. shirt
  7. t-shirts/sleeveless tops
  8. walking shoes
  9. dinner dress
  10. simple jersey dresses
