Packing Advice :: Haley :: Cardigan Junkie

Today in my line up is a fabulous post from the stylish and savvy Haley from Cardigan Junkie. Her blog is full of style tips and great ways to look fabulous while still saving money, check it out as soon as you are done reading her travel advice here!

Hello! I’m Haley from Cardigan Junkie and I’m so glad to be filling in for Julie while she’s off enjoying the trip of a lifetime! I’m so jealous, but excited to see her photos and hear about the great style she soaked up in Europe.

Speaking of vacations, I recently took a short trip of my own and realized once again how important it is to save room in your suitcase because every bag seems to gain 15 pounds the further you have to carry it. To me, the key is packing versatile dresses that don’t take up much room, and neutral accessories that can go with anything in your bag.

Here are some options I collected to show just what I mean:
Vacation Dresses


My favorite dress is the middle one, since it is unlike any I’ve seen others wear and could work in a restaurant as well as in an antiques market. What is your favorite travel dress?

    Ha-it's true, that luggage gets so much heavier when you're dragging it down the jetway! I love that little ballerina dress!
