Tips for Packing for the Ultimate Summer Weekend

Stepping into June means, that the holiday season is officially on. Be it a short weekend trip to the lake or a two week extravaganza at the other side of the world, there are essential things to pack. To help you to make the most out of your summer plans, we selected a series of items, to complete your holiday wardrobe.

Sartoriale, recommends Persol sunglasses. They offer durable, handmade quality, all the classic shapes you can think of and a myriad of colorways. This dark brown wayfarer shape goes well with all sort of outfits, an easy staple, you can always rely on.

A pair of boat shoes will always feel right at the beach no matter what. Wear them with swim shorts or your favorite pair of chinos in the evening, it is true coastal chic. The grey colorway on this Kiton number goes with everything, so you can concentrate on relax, instead of trying on outfits in front of the mirror.

If boat shoes are coastal chic, then Breton t-shirts are the essence of holiday style. Traditionally a work wear garment of fisherman's, today are the backbone of the well curated summer wardrobe.

A nice summery print never hurts on a pair of swim-shorts. Our friends at Rubinacci created a fresh version with sailing boats on a navy background, just perfect. Not to mention the right length and the fast drying technical fabric.

Also from Rubinacci we threw into our suitcase a linen shirt and royal blue shorts. Wear it under your navy summer blazer or with shorts and sandals, it's a great piece of casual wear. The shorts got our attention because of their cut, they are tailored like dress pants, a great way to smarten up during the heat.
 
Last, but not least, for chilly evenings we included a superb knitted jacket and a pair of bright summer jeans from Kiton. The jacket has the sort of 30's sportswear look, which we adore, while the color of these trousers resembles the sun, which feel appropriate on a summer getaway, paired with woven belt, of course from Kiton.
