I spend 7 straight weeks traveling every summer, only take a carry on, and pack 20 pieces: 2 shorts, 2 trousers, 2 pairs of hiking pants, 2 maxi skirts, 2 dresses, 2 button ups, 2 tanks, 2 tees, 2 silk camisoles, and 2 blouses OR 2 blazers, depending on average temperature. 1 pair of walking shoes, one pair of flat sandals, one pair of heels. 1 clutch, one convertible day bag, one belt. One crushable sun hat. One pair of sunglasses. 1 large printed scarf and 1 large solid scarf. 2 lipsticks that double as blush, 1 mascara, one small palette with 6 eyeshadows. Decanted 0.25 oz of foundation. One neutral nail polish. That's about it. Everything is white, navy, light blue, and whichever accent color I've chosen for that summer. It's raspberry pink for 2022!
Beth, you are adorable whether you are cooking, decorating, travelling and vloging or, apparently, packing! What a pleasure to watch! Thank you for all the lovely videos! Have a great holiday in Europe! Iliana
💖 Love your style, Beth. Your wardrobe and packing skills are inspiring. Looking forward to seeing you modeling all these looks while in France and Italy this summer!
Excellent taste, excellent tips, excellent video, excellent job Beth! I've seen a fair bit of minimal/capsule wardrobe videos, and this is truthfully one of the best I've seen. Realistic, classic, easy to pack and to wear and tasteful, elegant even! And an added bonus, examples that are accessible to a wide range of people! Well done! I love your sense of taste (figuratively and literally, awesome recipes!), and your sense of style!😍 I'm truly looking forward videos of your new adventures! Have the best time and be safe! 😊
Delightful as always, Beth. Can't wait for Beth Does France - season 2. My favourite pieces were the blue and white linen shirt, black and white sweater and the cute raincoat! Such a nice colour!
One of the most useful packing videos I’ve seen. I’m going on a two week cruise to the British Isles later this summer and these tips will definitely help keep my packing under control.
Beth, thank you so much for this video! I'm going on vacation in Europe next month and always struggle with packing while trying to look cute. YOU NAILED IT! Every outfit and advice was super helpful. Have a wonderful trip.
Great ideas, Beth! I always have a hard time packing. I either pack too much or in an effort to pack less, dont feel comfortable with the overly casual items I select. This video really help me visualize what I need to make packing simple and still feel stylish. Thanks so much!!
Now, this was a travel capsule wardrobe worth watching! I thought I had it down pretty good, but I still got inspired by some of your outfits! Happy travels 😊
Brilliant! Love your choices, so chic and affordable! It's so inspirational to find someone with a real-girl-like-us sensibilities who shops at Target, Old Navy & Factory outlets just like most of us do! Thank you!
Just returned from trip up the Rhine & this video posted the day we left. Just purchased the Longchamp camel bag on line TJ Maxx. Thanks for the great suggestions.
Ms. B have been totally waiting for this VLOG announcing your return to France. Great outift combos - recognized the Longchamps logo immediately - beautiful! Cannot wait for your Vlogs on Brocantes, the amazing Marche(s), glorious food and of course beautiful France. Merci!
Beth your video was so helpful and fun! Your clothing selection was right on, I am a Longchamp lover, perfect bag sizes and light as a feather. So looking forward to your series, have a delicious trip 🇫🇷✈️❤️
Yes! That is the best part of those Longchamp bags they are so light that they are great for traveling and I find they’re pretty indestructible too no wear and tear for years!
YOUR'E FABULOUS BETH ! Your tips for food/lifestyle and house are just great. Enjoy France. Can't wait to see the latest food and home trends from the markets and of course the brocantes. Have fun and travel safely. Love from England x
Just wow, this is by far.the best travel packing, filled with so many useful tips that I was taking mental notes. Can u please do a video on which and how many sets of undergarments do you pack on such trips as I seem to always underestimate or overestimate. Even just some tips and rules.that you follow will also do.
Sheri here! This was a fantastic video, Beth!! Thank you so much for sharing! Very inspiring and I love your style! Would love to see you do more fashion/style/travel packing videos!!
I just paused the video to tell you that i am COMPLETELY on board with your style! I'm so impressed. I love your class and simplicity. I hope you know how talented and creative you are! I'm literally taking notes haha.
Hi Beth! Just catching up on your current vlogs. Beth that was a fabulous tutorial! Really, really good! Loved your French vlogs last year. Can’t wait to follow along this year!
Yaaaaaaaay!!! Our second summer in France with you!!!! This is incredibly helpful. I have been struggling with my summer travel wardrobe. Thank you for this summary❤️
So excited for your videos in France! Loved seeing your travel capsule wardrobe. Makes me want to edit my closet. I love your style. JCrew and BR (factory) are my favorite stores too.
This was an excellent video! I'm a big fan of solids because you can mix and match easily while also getting away with more affordable/casual pieces to dress up/down. Love that everything you showed here were styles we can all find! Love the 4 basic colors.
Brilliant video. I am heading to France in a few days and usually leave it until the last minute to pack. Beth, you have inspired me to think through my wardrobe and I am delighted with the result. I'm all packed now and ready to go in a few days.
Love this video Beth! Super. This best travel capsule wardrobe video I have ever seen also! I am going away 5 weeks also and I always bring way too much and a bit all over the place with my outfits. Your video of your packing and selection of outfits, colours and mix and matching with bags and shoes was so very helpful. I am going to rethink my entire wardrobe for my trip now. Thanks a million! Love all the outfits you showed also. Also love watching your videos so far of your trip to France and Italy! Have a great day! Thanks again!
Not only do you have an amazing cooking channel, but you’re so clever with fashion ensembles. Is there no end to your talents? I loved this so I’d love it if you did more of this kind of thing. Maybe put outfit ideas together at the beginning of each season. I loved what you put together here. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ my 11yo dtr loves your videos! She’s always asking if we can watch your Chanel and if you have anything new. Can’t wait to see all your summer adventures!
Hello Beth! I’m really enjoying your channel having just finding you yesterday. I’m living vicariously through your videos because I don’t know if I will ever make it to France myself. I’ve watched quite a few videos and I’m so glad you haven’t mentioned red lipstick not even once!!! You have a lovely way about you and a nice easy style. Thank you for sharing your videos. Sincerely, Patricia in Toronto.
That is a fantastic packing video. I always have trouble when packing for cooler and warmer temps. I love how you have mixed in different price points and point out when it's nice to invest in something of more quality. Excellent video!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Yes I think that’s really the best way to approach putting a wardrobe together mix the price points spend where it matters and save when it doesn’t matter ha ha seems to work for me!
I love that you shared this! I don’t dress adventurously but I liked your choices and thought they were doable. Both casual and dressy. I look forward to trying this in my next trip!
II look forward to your summer trips… so glad to see you are traveling to other countries and taking all of us along.. can’t wait to see how your home in France is after 1 year.. thank you for sharing your outfits!!! Brilliant!
I travel alot with my husband and I love to use packing cubes. They make the items of clothing more compact and create even more space. The trick is learning different folding methods. Another great tip is to have only a couple sets of shoes that can go with multiple outfits and a pure or maybe two that can go with all outfits. Great tips. 👍
