5 Must-have Fashionable Pieces to Pack for Every Weekend Trip

Every once in a while Doc and I are able to convince the grandparents to come watch the kiddos so we can have a weekend away. In fact, we will be taking a short weekend trip in June that we are both looking forward to. While packing is never easy - there are several items that I know to take with me on every short trip to stay comfortable and fashionable.

1. Nice Capris - Capris can be very casual or even semi-dressy depending on how they are paired and accessorized. Take a nice pair and be comfortable and prepared for whatever situation you might encounter.
2. Cute Comfortable Shoes - A weekend away for me is a weekend to get out and about. I like to walk and see the sights. There is nothing less enjoyable and less fashionable then limping around because you wanted to wear strappy heels rather than something more appropriate for the situation.
3. A Simple Summer Dress - Summer Dresses are light and comfortable. In addition, you can also accessorize them up or down. Sticking with something simple really allows you to create an outfit for any occasion.
   
4. Fun accessories - If you have a simple summer dress or capris and a plain shirt, you can really dress up your outfit by bringing the right accessories. Accessories are great because they don't take up much space, but can really change your look in an instant!
5. A cute shawl, or sweater - Summer nights can be gorgeous, but where we live they can also include a little bite in the air. I always make sure I have a nice shawl or sweater to wear to keep me warm without hiding the fashionable outfit I've put together.
