Black Pants | Your travel capsule wardrobe won’t be complete without a pair of black pants. These pants are great casual days as they have a “sweatpant feel”, but they also look sophisticated enough to wear for photos and dare we say, going out for casual drinks.

Faux Leather Leggings | These leather leggings are perfect for any activity, be it a casual day, drinks on a rooftop or a date in a fancy restaurant: it all depends on how you style them!

These wet-look leggings are great for creating simple outfits with a touch of something a little different. Spanx’s faux leather leggings also come with a moto motif, which is even better for creating interesting looks, while still staying minimalistic.

Outerwear

Although we’ve suggested a couple of different coats, if you want pack light, just choose a single coat to take with you!

Wool Coat | If you’re going somewhere with cold weather, a black wool coat should be a staple. It’s easy enough to mix and match, and won’t take too much room in your suitcase.

Trench Coat | Trench coats are perfect for city escapes in the fall and springtime. They look ever-so-stylish paired with almost anything, so make sure to add one into your suitcase.

Puffer Coat | Puffer coats are both stylish and warm. These are best for cold-weather destinations during the fall and winter, and if you choose a neutral color like black, you’ll be able to combine it with all your outfits.

As puffer coats are quite big, it’s best to wear this straight to the airport to avoid takig up too much space in your suitcase.

Shoes

Sneakers | A capsule wardrobe is never complete without a pair of white sneakers. A simple pair like this from Veja is great for pairing with each and any one of your outfits, but you can also choose a pair with more personality.

For example, Golden Goose sneakers in various different color combinations are always a good idea.
