How does one pack clothing for 3 months in France going from early spring to early summer?
I don’t have a clue! This is what I’ve done and I suppose time will tell whether or not it has been successful …
👟1. SHOES
- A pair of low-heeled smart but comfy black boots (Froggy South Africa)
- A pair of comfy black high wedges – sexy and practical (Crocs)
- A pair of good clean walking shoes (Nike)
- A pair of good dirty walking shoes (Nike)
- Summer slip slops/ flip flops (Nike)
- Bunny slippers – why not? We’ll be there for Easter 😉
🧥2. EARLY SPRING
- Four jackets. Two of which are long – because it’s important to cover my a*😜 (two waterproof & two down)
- 3 long sleeve T’s and 3 jerseys (for layering)
- 3 pairs of jeans
- A thick scarf
👗3. EARLY SUMMER
- Beach towel, sarong, board shorts, two swimming costumes and a cap
- Two summer dresses
- 4 summer tops, 1 summer pants and two light jerseys
🏃🏼♀️4. EXERCISE GEAR

💃🏼 5. EVENING

📚 7. BOOKS
- Regional French foodie information/ recipe book
- DK France travel guide
💝 8. GIFTS FOR OUR HOSTS
- A notebook and set of 2 South African coasters with quotes by Nelson Mandela to leave at each of our 13 “gites” (self-catering accommodation) as parting gifts
… I’m wondering whether I need to take a wetsuits (I think so; the ocean is 10-13 degrees Celsius!) … and a hairdryer???
Any advice is welcome 🌸
