It seems everyone is either on a staycation or planning one right now.
All we can think of is walks in the English countryside, a hotel dinner and drinks.
After a long-term separation from getaways, we are embracing them with open arms and a gin and tonic in hand.
But what does one pack?
Getting ready for any trip can be panic-inducing and we have all fallen victim to the ‘pack as much as you can’ rouse.
Quantity very much depends on how long you are staying but there are a few key pieces that perfect staycation dressing.
So from blazers to ‘out out’ dresses, here are the key pieces that will make getaway outfit planning easier.
Kitri Margot green check midi dress
This dress just screams ‘out of office.’ Made for all manners of staycations, whether it be a city or seaside break, this is the ultimate away dress. Pair with trainers during the day and bright heels at night.
Castaner canvas wedge espadrilles
Get them for £85 at Net A Porter.
When populating a summer staycation wardrobe, espadrilles are a must. The shoes of summer, they are versatile and comfortable in equal measure. Wear with your best jeans for casual nonchalance or with a beautiful summer dress for an ode to the Mediterranean.
Zara linen blazer with printed cuffs
Picking a cover-up for summer is tricky. The dream is something light enough to carry when the heat picks up but protects from the chill while keeping the outfit chic. It sounds impossible but we think we may have struck gold with this linen blazer from Zara. Relaxed and refined, it is the only staycation jacket you need.
Weekday Perfect relaxed t-shirt
A white t-shirt, boring? Never! A hard-working staple, it is a must in any collection. This Weekday version is flawlessly designed, ending at the right points on the arms and on the body. A true bargain with major value.
ASOS Design curve high rise Farleigh jeans
It would be a fashion crime to forgo jeans when talking about a staple wardrobe. Practical but stylish, they will be the first item you pick up for any staycation activity that involves dry and flat ground. ASOS ‘Farleigh’ jeans are one of the best denim fits around – you won’t regret adding them to your collection.
Reebok Club C 85 vintage
While espadrilles are your staycation heeled options, trainers must be your flat alternative. We rate going for a vintage feel with a pair of Reebok’s Club C 85. Meanwhile, create the #OOTD of dreams by wearing with your jeans, t-shirt and linen blazer.
ASOS Edition puff sleeve sequinned mini dress
It wouldn’t be a getaway without some sparkle and night-out extravagance. For your dinner and drinks option, you won’t find any dress more glam than this puff sleeve beauty from ASOS. Keep accessories to a minimum and let this silhouette do all the talking.
Mango animal print baguette bag
Finally, to bring the entire selection together, choose a bag that will work for day and night. This baguette-style bag from Mango can be easily swung over your shoulder for lunchtime strolls, while adding a touch of sophistication to your night activities. Plus, it will hold all of your essentials.
