Weekend Packing List

The weekend is almost here and a short trip out of town is just what you need to relax and revive. Whether it’s a weekend at the beach, a bed and breakfast in the mountains or a golfing holiday, there are a few essentials you’ll need to look fresh from Friday night till Sunday afternoon. Here’s a quick packing list for a weekend of fun.

  1. Pack a blazer or sport coat. The Summer Baltic Blue Blazer works well with jeans, chinos or trousers and can be worn for day or evening. Blazers provide enough formality for a quality restaurant and a date night but are also laid back enough for a casual holiday.
  2. Always travel with at least one men’s dress shirt. Choose classic white oxford or light blue. You can then choose T-shirt, polo or golf shirts depending on your destination and mix and match through the weekend.
  3. Shoes should be determined by your planned activities but at least one clean, classic pair to match the trousers/jeans/chinos you plan to wear if you want to go to a nice restaurant.
  4. Never leave home without sunglasses. Whether you’re heading to the beach or the links.
  5. Accessories and necessities. The half dozen or so toiletries (toothpaste, toothbrush, shaving cream and razor, shampoo, deodorant) and accessories ( pocket square, cuff links and watch).

Focus on the three days, two nights and have fun.
