Do you tend to panic pack last minute items ‘just in case’?
The key to successful holiday packing is to pack items which are inter-changeable which you can use in multiple ways. This way, you’ll actually take less away with you but still have enough outfits to wear.
There’s a short video you can watch on my YouTube here: https://youtu.be/4Z7rInRSDbI
Here’s the four items:
1. Use your travel bag as a beach bag (or vice versa). (BONUS 2025 UPDATE: Check out: Pack Less, Style More: Versatile Accessories You Need This Summer!)
2. A pashmina (or large scarf) is easily reached for when it’s chilly on the plane or an evening. But, why not use it as a sarong for the beach or pool? The one featured in the video is a Colour me Beautiful super soft scarf – these and others are available from the studio or online here.

3. A shirt or shirt dress can be worn to the beach, pool or on an evening. Wear it as a dress, with or without a belt or try as a lightweight jacket if it’s chilly in the evening as an extra layer.
4. A kaftan might be an obvious choice as a bikini cover up but you can totally dress it up for an evening out. In the video you’ll see me wearing one in the day and the same on a night.
That’s four interchangeable pieces to take away with you on a beach holiday which can be worn in more than one way!
Which will you try?
