Ladies tend to be infamous for over-packing. Sure, a weekend vacation may sound relaxing, but planning your outfits for the weekend in advance? That’s where the stress comes in. Many women pick their outfits depending on their mood, so it can be difficult to judge how you are going to feel on that very day, which only leads to one thing- over-packing.

When it comes to packing for the weekend, start with a small duffel bag. With a mere over-night bag to hold your belongings, your space is restricted, leaving you to only pack absolute necessities.

It helps to stick to classic pieces that can be altered a couple ways, depending on your mood. Also keep in mind the activities for the weekend. If you’re going somewhere warm, you may want to pack a bathing suit. If you’re planning on doing a lot of walking, it may be a good idea to pack those Nikes.

So what do you pack? F-S-S

One extra is always a good idea in case you spill something on your blouse, but don’t go crazy.
