Weekend road trip planned? Be sure to pack appropriately. Whether you’re headed to an Airbnb to switch off for a few days, booking into a luxury hotel or escaping for a night away at a chic bolthole, you’ll need the right combination of clothes packed with you to have all your bases covered. What works for now? A leather blazer feels polished and on-trend, and will go a long way towards elevating a pair of simple black jeans (just add kitten heels and a camisole slip underneath for a pre-dinner drink at the bar). If you’re headed for a bracing walk, a do-it-all knit is a must (Khaite’s striking striped knit is the ultimate piece if you’re in the mood for an investment: you’ll wear it on repeat), while a rain jacket from utility brand Rains, which has just opened a store on Wicklow street, is a chic go-to. As for accessories? We always gravitate towards a pair of chubby hoops, like the below earrings from Missoma, the fashionable jewellery brand which has just landed at Arnotts, meanwhile Tod’s multi-coloured leather tote is perhaps the most divine bag we’ve spotted all season: serious wish-list potential.
