Packing A Capsule Wardrobe

I noticed on my referral stats that someone had found this site by Googling just that, packing a capsule wardrobe. This is something I aim for each time I go away and it was only last weekend that I felt I had truly succeeded. So I’ll share with you the list of what I took and the combinations I wore in case it’s of any use to you. Now bear in mind that this is outerwear only, clearly you will have to add the appropriate number of undergarments for the length of your trip. This list was for a weekend away in a city, leaving Friday evening and returning Sunday evening.
