I’m off hoooooome for per week, Brisbane right here I come!
I’m heading again with a bunch of my wonderful NZ private styling shoppers on our Aussie Purchasing Journey (yow will discover extra information on the 2027 journeys right here if you happen to’re eager to know extra). We’re hitting the Sunshine State to seek out color, print and simply issues which might be somewhat totally different than what we will choose up right here in Aoteoroa, so I must pack versatile, weather-appropriate items that may combine and match, and stand the check of 8-hour buying days! (in addition to a number of additional days with my fam after the women depart).
So the purpose of the sport: Pack as little as I can, to get essentially the most seems I can! I took some free inspiration from this weblog on the 5,4,3,2,1 packing methodology I wrote a short time again, however determined that I didnt want 4 bottoms, so solely packed 3 (haha I do know, who am I!)
Right here’s what I’ve packed (all of the issues which might be nonetheless obtainable are linked)
Now, with the intention to ensure that I may really get essentially the most use out of all these items, I did one thing I don’t usually do (however now extremely advocate) and I attempted EVERYTHING ON earlier than I packed it! I wanted to see the way it really labored in outfits, reasonably than simply assuming it could be helpful (which is my ordinary approach of packing).
Are you able to guess what number of outfits I received out of those 13 objects? TWENTY FOUR!! I can keep for a month! woot! And actually, that wasn’t all of the totally different combos I may create, that’s simply the place I finished as a result of I received drained haha!
Now I do know the climate may be changeable, and a few of these seems usually are not as “wintery” as they could must be, however I want to ensure I’ve received the suitable layers happening underneath the jackets and jumpers, we’re inside all the time, and I’m additionally peri-menopausal, so these sizzling flushes are coming by way of thick and quick.
I’m a Brisbane woman, so I DO have some expertise with a Brissy winter (chilly within the morning, pretty and heat by lunchtime normally), plus I’ve acclimatised to NZ temps so the forecast 12-21 levels is comparatively balmy in comparison with what we’ve had right here this week!
I’ll try to doc what I do really put on every day (and night time) so we will actually see how helpful the whole lot was.
Want me luck!
