Labor Day Weekend is a week away and I’m already so looking forward to it. Tomorrow marks the start of many back and forth trips to NYC over the next few months, but we’ll be back to Charleston right before the holiday weekend. While we won’t be packing up our bags and traveling anywhere this year, I’ve got lots of inspiration for those of you heading on a quick getaway (and for those of you enjoying time at home- like us!). It’s always one of the best weekends of the year, as everyone is trying to savor the last bits of summer, spending lots of time outdoors and bringing out the best from summer wardrobes. I broke down my three key pieces to make packing for Labor Day Weekend a breeze.

Wearing:

J.Crew Denim Jacket, Joie Tank, La Vie Jeans, MDS Stripes Scarf, Neely & Chloe Tote, Carrie Forbes Sandals

 

A denim jacket is one of the few items I actually wear year round. Like my favorite pair of jeans, it just gets better over time. This is one item I always add into my weekender bag, just in case I need an easy extra layer. Whether I’m wearing it with a pair of white jeans or over a mini dress, it always adds the perfect relaxed touch to any look.

Wearing:

The Shirt, GRLFRND Skirt, Castaner Espadrilles, Straw Bag

 

These Castander espadrilles have come everywhere with me this past spring/summer, as you can probably tell from the many times I’ve worn them on the blog. They’re a great daytime to nighttime shoe and work with everything and anything, which makes them so ideal to travel with.

Wearing:

Reformation Dress, J.Crew Denim Jacket, Straw Bag, Castaner Espadrilles, Rebecca Taylor Sunglasses

 

It goes without saying that I always pack at least one dress with me. Since it’s still hot during this time of year, linen or cotton is my fabric of choice. I plan on wearing these linen dresses I bought from Reformation this summer as much as possible while the weather is still suited for them. Plus, many of them are on sale right now!
