My Travel Wardrobe – A Trip to Bangkok and Sydney


I have a love/hate relationship with this particular trip. It’s a weeklong adventure which takes me to Bangkok for a day, followed by three days in Sydney and another day in Bangkok on the way back to Dubai.
I love the destinations.
I hate packing for two different continents and trying to leave enough room for potential shopping ;)

So here’s what happens when you try to pack for two different climates, two different continents and two different plans, without overloading my poor, beaten Samsonite. Did someone say capsule wardrobe?

Day 1 – Bangkok
Sightseeing… a trip to the floating market at Damnoensaduak demands flats (Havaianas), easy tee (H&M) + wear-anywhere jeans (H&M). And a camera, duh.





Day 2 – Sydney
For me, a casual maxi dress (Topshop) together with gladiator sandals (Old Navy) is perfect for a wee spot of shopping along George Street in Sydney, working 'laid-back chic' or, in other words, I couldn’t be assed thinking of a whole outfit so I threw a maxi dress in the suitcase :)

Travel Wardrobe - Frankfurt, Germany


Returning home from my too-short trip to Spain, I realised I'd had a little post-Madrid wardrobe inspiration. As I packed for another destination, I got a little more excited than usual as I pulled out a few of my favourite high street items forgotten at the back of my wardrobe.

As an air hostess, each new stopover requires route-specific outfit packing, sometimes for weather completely opposite from the previous. With new ideas influenced wholly by the mixed looks of Madrid’s street style señoritas (you can see the post HERE) I packed my 'Travel Wardrobe' for Frankfurt, Germany. I hope you like it!

Leopard print scarf, H&M

Skinny jeans, Salsa

Ankle boots, Primark

Sunglasses, H&M



Right now, Dubai is way too hot for the scarf and the ankle boots - so I enjoy the novelty of wearing them on my trips to Europe which is still cool and rainy. When I'm back in the desert, I might subsitute the boots for simple sandals and a lighter scarf as a cute headband (read: no idea what to do with my hair in this humidity).

Hope you like my choices... what did you wear today? Send me a link to your blog/twitter/instagram/pinterest :)
