The Summer Carryall Look – Julia Berolzheimer

OUTFIT DETAILS: Prada Dress (similar here, here and here), Miu Miu Flats, Celine Bag (old, similar here and here)

Packing for a summer trip through Europe is really about putting together looks that can carry you through the whole day: morning coffee followed by museum hopping, a few hours of shopping, lunch outside, and juggling shopping bags in both hands.

To me, when I think of a summer carryall, I don’t just think about a singular bag, but rather the pieces of my look that make getting through a full day easy and enjoyable. A checkered dress in a lightweight fabric. Bermuda shorts made for long days on my feet. Light layers and hats for sunnier days. Cute hair accessories to keep my hair off my face. Walkable shoes that still feel special. I need everything to be able to carry me through the whole day, mix well together, and stay looking fresh from morning through late afternoon.
