Although technically not a dress, I love a playsuit that has a flowy girly style! A frilled un-tailored playsuit allows for extreme comfort, can be worn on more adventurous days whilst still looking super cute!

When you travel frequently you learn to become very efficient, especially when packing! This isn’t for everyone, I think it works because I am short, but a maxi skirt can be very versatile! Grab one with an elastic waist so it can be used as a dress as well, pop on a belt and you have a whole new outfit!

So 90’s. So cute. A pair of overalls is one of the best things you could pack! Perfect for plane trips as they are super comfy. For the colder days chuck under a striped long sleeve.

Another really versatile item. Pack a long shirt that is lightweight and breathable, through over swimmers for a beach day, or tie up the front and pair with denim shorts for a whole new look.

I love a good wrap dress! Maxi dresses and me are not friends. I do want to try a shirt dress although I suspect it will not look like the one modeled so I will have to work it!
The readdish wrap dress in the IG pic is beautiful. I like variety of dresses. I love linen for travel. It seems to shrug off dirt.
