The essentials
We wanted to start by talking about the essentials. When it comes to putting together a suitcase for a spring trip, it's essential to carefully choose the pieces that will form the basis of your wardrobe. These versatile, timeless pieces will allow you to create a multitude of looks without overloading your suitcase. Here are a few essentials not to forget when preparing for your trip.
1. Versatile pants
Opt for classic, comfortable pants that can easily be dressed up or down to suit the occasion. A good quality pair of chino trousers or jeans can be combined with a variety of outfits to keep you company throughout your trip. Our shop essentials include Brax's Mary cut and Cambio's Ros.
2. Basic tops
Include a selection of basic, versatile tops such as plain t-shirts, lightweight cotton shirts or simple blouses. These pieces can be paired with a variety of bottoms and accessories to create a variety of looks for any situation. For our part, we offer a wide selection of timeless tops, all available in black, navy and white. Marc Cain is undoubtedly a leader in the boutique when it comes to essentials. You'll find round-neck and V-neck t-shirts, camisoles, polo shirts and more. Max Volmary blouses are also a good option if you want a comfortable, versatile shirt.
3. The light vest
A light, versatile vest is a must-have for spring travel. Opt for a denim jacket, a leather jacket or a casual blazer that can be easily layered over your outfits to protect you from spring breezes while adding a touch of style to your look. Once again, Marc Cain stands out in shop, offering you two models of sleeveless vests, perfect for spring temperatures!
4. The versatile dress
Finally, a versatile dress is an ideal choice for a spring trip, as it can be worn in a variety of ways to suit different occasions. Choose a flowing, comfortable dress that can be worn on its own on warm days or paired with a light jacket for cooler evenings. The Propriano III from Saint James is a good option for this type of clothing. Inspired by the seaside world, this model is a long version of marinières. The material gives the dress a very feminine look, offering a slight shine and the ability to embrace the feminine form for discreet sensuality.
By including these essentials in your suitcase, you'll be sure to have the basics you need to create a variety of stylish and comfortable looks throughout your spring trip. These versatile pieces will ensure that you're ready to tackle any adventure that comes your way with style and ease.
Practical tips for the perfect suitcase
Now that we've talked about the importance of essential items, let's move on to the crucial phase of organizing your suitcase for your spring trip. To ensure you have a hassle-free trip and remain stylish every step of the way, follow these practical tips to help you pack efficiently and thoughtfully.
1. Clothes that fold well
Before you start filling your suitcase, make sure you opt for clothes made from fabrics that fold easily without creasing, so you can make the most of the space in your suitcase and keep your outfits looking impeccable. Marc Cain's Spring-Summer 2024 Speed Up capsule is a great value if you want to be sure of having lightweight pieces that won't crease.
2. Materials suitable for travel
- For hot destinations: opt for light, breathable fabrics that promote ventilation and light colors to reflect the heat. The SaintJ ames collection offers microfiber, a fabric exclusive to this brand. A must-have in our summer collections, microfiber in Uvyl, an anti-UV fabric, is a vacation essential for stylish sun protection. Don't forget essential accessories like sunglasses, hats and sandals. In the store, you'll find items by Saint James, clothing in light colors and summery fabrics, as well as Marc Cain sandals and hats or caps by Cinzia Rocca and Saint James.
- For cooler destinations: opt for layering to stay warm while allowing you to adjust your outfit as the temperature changes. For this type of product, we recommend Creenstone and Ilse Jacobsen coats and rain coats.
- Also, never leave home without a cashmere sweater and scarf. They'll follow you wherever you go. They're a must-have for plane and train travel, and for evenings out on the terrace. As well as being practical, a cashmere scarf will add a touch of elegance to your evening outfits. Repeat Cashmere, our favorite cashmere collection, offers a multitude of styles and colors.
3. Coordination and comfort
Choose clothes that are coordinated and comfortable, such as socks that can be paired with several tops to maximize your outfit options while ensuring your comfort throughout your trip. The Holly pants, Cosi shorts, Warris skirt and Joyce dress from the Raffaello Rossi collection will be your allies.
4. Accessories to enhance looks
Don't forget to include a selection of accessories to add a touch of elegance to your outfits, whether it's BeBlue jewelry, a Cinzia Rocca scarf or a Marc Cain handbag. This way, you're sure to enhance your look and make it look different every time you wear it.
