Cart Confidential Vol. 42

Our upcoming trip to Gstaad has me shopping for sporty pieces made stylish enough that I actually reach for them again. Technical shorts, a lightweight anorak with a cinched waist, and sneakers that work without feeling too hiking-specific. Everything has to hold up for long walks and weather that shifts from morning to afternoon, but still looks right when we stop for lunch in the village.

My carry-on holds the dependable finishing touches that leave me feeling my best at the tail end of our summer travels. Plush socks for full days on my feet, eye patches to keep my skin hydrated, an upgraded water bottle, and a phone strap for hands-free days. Small things when you pack them, very smart the second the trip gets moving.

For the girls, I’m doing the same with their little suitcases. A sneaker I know they’ll love, an easy jacket, and colorful scrunchies to keep their hair back. Practical pieces made sweet!
