I’m a Stylist—Here Are 7 Basic But Chic Items I’m Packing for a Week in Croatia

As someone who loves to travel, having an upcoming trip to look forward to is basically the key to happiness. And while I enjoy a long haul flight somewhere further afield (yes, I even like the plane food) nothing beats a quick jaunt over to Europe, does it? I’ve been lucky enough to have a couple of trips to Italy so far this year, but I couldn’t be more excited to head back to Croatia.

It’s been a good few years since I visited for Outlook festival, but I do remember a few key details that’ll make it easier to pack this time round. People tend to get a bit more dressed up than I though in areas such as Hvar, so chic trouser co-ords and evening dresses won’t look out of place. When it comes to the beach, don’t underestimate the reason why everyone (and I mean everyone) wears some form of shoes in the sea. It’s rocky. And when it comes to accessories, a giant carry-everything beach bag and a silk hair scarf (for windier days) are first to go in my case.
