“This is the perfect gauzy go-with-anything blouse from our capsule collection with the brand. The blouson sleeves and collarless detail make any outfit look instantly put-together.”
“Summer always calls for white jeans. I wear them as a head-to-toe white look – city-appropriate but still totally comfortable for a day exploring.”
“I always have and always will love T-bar sandals. They’re chic, simple and perfect for strolling along the Seine.”
“This trip, I’m switching my leather holdall for a sweet bucket bag. Consider it my homage to Jane Birkin.”
“Anya is so clever, and this case is the dream. I’ve used her in-flight travel pouches for years – but this takes packing to the next level. Everything has a place, from your chargers to your liquids.”
“A lightweight jacket is non-negotiable for a trip to Paris. The longer length and tailored silhouette make this denim utility jacket feel ultra sophisticated.”
“The Wayfarer will never go out of style. Its classic, forever-cool shape is perfect for Paris.”
“Travel accessories are my weakness. This one is perfectly compact – plenty of room for whatever currency I’m carrying, but small enough to fit in all of my handbags.”
“I will always travel with a cashmere knit – this one from our collaboration with Madeleine Thompson is the best. It's really lightweight, so perfect for any season.”
“I’ll wear these jeans for the Eurostar journey. They’re loose-fit but cut like smarter trousers, so look much more elegant than your standard denim.”
“The ultimate walking sandals. I can comfortably do 15,000 steps in these and still look stylish.”
“When I go for a monochrome palette, I really commit! This bag will carry all my essentials for a day’s exploring, but is still slick and pared-back.”
“I always pack something I can dress up in the evening. This dress is simple, but the cool knotted detail makes a subtle statement.”
“I love these strappy sandals for their simplicity. The small heel has the power to elevate jeans or dresses for a night out.”
“I keep accessories to a minimum – and love that this feels like jewellery and a watch at once. Plus, it’ll keep me on time for my dinner reservations.”
“If I had to bring just one item of make-up, it would be this bold red lipstick from our collaboration with Cosmetics à la Carte.”
“For me, a nightshirt is the unsung hero of the short-haul trip. I like mine oversized, and red stripes feel particularly Parisian to me.”
“This is so much simpler than trying to bring your full routine with you. Four skincare essentials to keep your skin looking its best for a couple of days away.”
