The Travel Edit: What to Pack for a Stylish (and Comfortable) Getaway

Welcome back to The Style Guide. Today, we are dreaming of escapes.
Whether you are planning a weekend city break in Paris or a week of relaxation by the sea, the anticipation of travel is joyful. However, the act of packing? Often, less so. We stare at our open suitcases, torn between "packing everything just in case" and the fear of nothing fitting right.
As your Empathetic Stylist, I want to take the weight off your shoulders (and your luggage!). The secret to a stylish getaway isn't bringing more; it's bringing the right pieces.
Here is your guide to creating the perfect Bella Travel Capsule.
1. Stick to a Cohesive Palette
To travel light, everything must mix and match. Choose one neutral base (like navy or white) and one or two accent colours from your "London Palette" (like teal or coral). This ensures that every top works with every bottom, doubling your outfit options without doubling the bulk.
2. Jersey is Your Best Travel Companion
We adore our premium viscose-jersey blend for travel. Why? It is the ultimate low-maintenance luxury. It refuses to crease, no matter how tightly you roll it. You can pull a jersey dress out of your suitcase, shake it out, and head straight to dinner looking impeccable.
3. The Journey Outfit (Comfort First)
Your holiday starts the moment you leave your door. For the plane or train, choose our "Waistband Win" trousers and a soft layers. You want pieces that allow you to sit for hours in total comfort but still look polished enough for arrival.
4. The Multi-Tasking Dress
Pack one "Hero Dress." This is a midi-length piece that works as a beach cover-up with sandals during the day, and transforms into an elegant evening look with wedges and statement earrings at night.
Travel is about making memories, not worrying about your wardrobe. Pack smart, travel light, and explore the world with confidence.
