Essential Guide to Summer Vacation Shoe Packing

Hi everyone – happy holiday season!

It’s summer time and we are off onย vacation. To the wardrobe we venture – pull out all “necessary” shoes and then realise our shoes alone take up the whole suitcase – argh!!!!

Does this sound familiar?

Not to worry, having been asked by so many friends exactly which shoes they should pack I have come up with the followingย max of 5 pairs of shoes that will see you through every occasion during summer vacation:

1. ย Sneakers

A ย pair of converse or white high tops for every day longer distance walking.

3. Dressy sandals

In case you go out for dinner etc. Limit yourself to one pair if possible – making sure they go with whatever you plan to wear in the evenings.
