With travel restrictions being lifted, we can once again soon experience the joy of packing a bag and heading off to explore new places or rediscovering old haunts. The question is... what do you put into that bag? If you're in need of some getaway wardrobe inspiration, our new summer collection has everything you need for getting out into the world again.

From short staycations, to leisurely European city breaks and those much-needed sun-soaked holidays, here's our guide on what to pack and how to style it.

For staycation weekends in the UK, you want to pack practically. A small bag with a shirt for day, a pretty top for evening, your favourite trousers or jeans for exploring and a knit to keep the chill away are all essentials. 

   

Maelys cardi £57
A knit is a must on a UK break and the openwork knit of this super soft cardi is a great one for spring, providing the perfect level style and warmth for chillier days.

Thea t-shirt £29
Featuring beautiful broderie anglaise detailing and a keyhole buttoned back, this makes a pretty t-shirt for day and can be dressed up with a skirt and statement earrings for a relaxed evening dinner. 

    

Gladys shirt £39
This pretty green and pink floral print shirt is perfect for spring and summer days with its sweet little rounded, pleated collar and buttoned cuffs. We love it with high waisted jeans and trainers.  

Effie trousers in bubblegum £55
A pair of jeans or trousers can take you from day to night when paired with the right top and shoes. Pair these cute trousers featuring turn-ups and a tie belt with sandals or trainers for day and a wedge heel for evening. 

 

 

Those long weekends in Europe could soon be a fixture in our calendars again. So what to pack? Pretty skirts, dresses and tops that can stylishly take you from day to night with the right accessories are supremely practical. 

  

Suzie top £45
The broderie anglaise detailing on this top transports us straight to Europe just by putting it on! So chic, pair it with a midi skirt for exploring or high waisted trousers and a waist-cinching belt for a more tailored look. 

Lizon mini dress £79
Featuring puffed sleeves with an elasticated finish and a frill detail at the waist, this pretty little number pairs brilliantly with sneakers and some vintage sunglasses for a playful look. 

   

Barcelona midi skirt £49
This is a skirt that makes you want to wander! With a ruffle front and a pretty floral print, it creates the perfect romantic look for a European weekend break. 

Paros maxi skirt £65
A classic black and white graphic print is eternally chic. We love the Aztec style print on this beautiful maxi skirt. Pair with a black cami or tee and some black accessories for an elegant look. 

 

Roll on those summer holidays of poolside-lazing, beach-blissing and town-exploring. Things are looking hopeful for some sun destinations this summer so we're looking ahead and planning all those dreamy outfits now. We're thinking floaty maxi dresses, boho prints, versatile camis and playful mini skirts. 

    

Celeste maxi dress £79
The Celeste maxi dress is a bohemian stunner for summer. It comes in a relaxed fit but it could also be beautifully cinched in at the waist with a belt. It's a fun, tactile and elegant piece for summer. Also available in emerald green

Team this pretty silk chiffon mini with a simple white tee for day or a lacy cami for evening. Available in green & lilac.

 a keyhole, drawstring neck, ballooning dropped sleeves, and side slits at the bottom hem, this easy fit style is super versatile and comfortable. Crafted from hand spun, hand woven cotton, it'll keep you cool day and night. 

Flamenco midi dress in green £295
D’Ascoli uses traditional Indian craftsmanship with modern technology to create an amazing print on this Flamenco dress.
