Your Holiday Packing List: Save Space & Time
Packing for winter travel can be a burden. That’s why we created this holiday packing list just for you — to make packing lighter, easier, and smarter. Using our 8-piece packing hack, create 16 unique looks by dressing each item up and down with your basics, for active days and lively nights. The best part? We’ll take care of the dry cleaning upon your return, while you take care of assimilating back to real life.
We partnered with Armoire member, Annie Cheng of The Table Less Traveled, for how to pack for a winter trip.
Here’s your holiday packing list — and a few space and time saving hacks along the way:
Piece #1: Black Dress (by Equipment)
Dress Down: With a light cardigan and walking shoes
Dress Up: With a necklace, shawl, and heels
Styling Tip: If you have the risk tolerance for loss or damage — pack things you love and will actually wear. The goal is to wear every item in your bag.
Packing Tip: If an item can’t be paired more than 2 ways — ditch it.
Piece #2: Silk Blouse (by Kenzo)
Dress Down: With jeans and sandals
Dress Up: With earrings, fun pants, and heels
Styling Tip: Bring multi-use shoes — e.g. dressy sandals for night or casual for day, casual sneakers for day or for exercise.
Packing Tip: Always pack more underwear than you think you need. It’s the smallest, lightest weight thing you pack and the thing you change the most.
Armoire Piece #3: Cami (by Cooper & Ella)
Dress Down: With shorts, sandals, and a cardigan
Dress Up: With earrings, fun pants, and heels
Styling Tip: Pack for the weather, but prepare for anything — e.g. rain jacket, sandals, swimsuit.
Packing Tip: Always pack more underwear than you think you need. It’s the smallest, lightest weight thing you pack and the thing you change the most.
Piece #4: Soft Pants (by Scotch & Soda)
Dress Down: With sunglasses, a white t-shirt, and walking shoes
Dress Up: With a jacket, wallet turned clutch, necklace and heels
Styling Tip: Pack lots of neutral tones that can pair with multiple items, and then fun, bright pieces to sprinkle throughout.

Piece #5: Sundress (by Tart)
Dress Down: With sunglasses and sandals
Dress Up: With a jacket, wallet turned clutch, and heels

Piece #6: Jumpsuit (by LACAUSA)
Dress Down: With walking shoes
Dress Up: With a shawl, earrings, and heels
Styling Tip: Scarves are multi-use — blankets on the plane, pillow in the car.

Piece #7: Jeans (by PAIGE)
Dress Down: With sunglasses, a white t-shirt, and walking shoes
Dress Up: With a jacket, wallet turned clutch, necklace and heels
