A Travel Capsule Wardrobe for a Long Weekend in Paris, with a Blue Jacket…

    Thank you – I have a week long trip coming up and you're quite an inspiration for my packing list! Most of those days will be spent in the studio so there will be plenty of tshirts and jeans but at least I will look presentable and put together.

    Good to see you back! I'm plotting (planning) a trip for next year to Ireland and Paris. I love the Dickins and Jones skirt. It could be worn often and is a good price. Perhaps I should travel with an empty suitcase and just visit House of Fraser in Dublin. This is definitely a wardrobe that could take me to the theatre or to a country pub. Merci, Janice.

    Hello, I echo the welcome back. Even 2 days without Vivienne files seems long; I hope the medical things went ok. The dress and silver sandles are great finds. Both are versatile, comfortable, good looking and affordable for most people.

    I love the subdued grey-blue of the biker jacket. Much less severe than the standard black, but still providing a little edge.

    Thanks Janice, the whole look is gorgeous. Interesting to see how the combination results in a much softer overall look. I am also looking forward to seeing this beautiful jacket again over time as it becomes fully integrated into your own wardrobe. Enjoy!!!!

    On my way again almost a year later, and this is still a great packing set outline/inspiration with just one new blouse added. Thanks, Janice! Your ideas hold up over time beautifully.
