UNIQLO: City Break Packing List

Packing List for Women
Tops
The beauty about sleeveless tops is that they’re so versatile and great for layering. Opt for one casual every day top and another that is slightly more sophisticated for evening wear.
The classic V-neck sweater is another layering essential. Wear with collared tops to allow for prints and colourpops to add interest to cold weather outfits.
For statement style, choose from UNIQLO’s long sleeve silk blouse collection to add a little modernity and sophistication to your look.These tops are not only beautifully feminine but are also great for covering up in a more conservative city or for the cooler days.
Trousers and jeans
Jeans are a great outfit base as they are hard-wearing and go with almost anything. If you want something a little more fashion-forward, pack UNIQLO’s drape bottoms in floral print – an on-trend addition to your holiday wardrobe in a relaxed fit ideal for traveling – or the more formal easy ankle length pants.
Dresses and skirts
Always include one classic/simple dress that can be transitioned between night and day such as the flattering easy drape dress. Add a neutral skirt to your suitcase to create more feminine two-piece outfits.
Outerwear
We love the functionality of the Ultra Light Down compact jacket and the Ultra Light Down printed vest for their light and compact design – a travel essential! If you prefer a more traditional coat, UNIQLO’s Wool Blended Short Duffel Coat is the stylish and warm choice.
Accessories
Remember that scarves bring a touch of much needed color to an otherwise neutral wardrobe and they always bring a feminine flair, try out UNIQLO Women’s Ivana Helsinki Stole if you are after a little creative inspiration! Speaking of style we also LOVE this cute UNIQLO bowler hat, to add some edge to your looks but also keeping them functional, because this great piece is 100% wool and will ensure your head is kept nice and warm.
Packing List for Men
Tops
Classic and casual tees and polo shirts are great for warmer days and form the perfect base for layering cardigans, blazers or sweaters.
For more formal occasions, the slim fit of UNIQLO’s Oxford long sleeve shirtensures that it will look great either under a jacket or on its own. Made from 100% cotton, this shirt will dry easily, allowing you to wash and wear multiple times.
Trousers and jeans
Dark denim straight jeans and chinos are essential items for city travelers. For warmer weather, let your legs breathe and show off your footwear in cropped chino trousers and shorts in neutral or statement colours that help put the fun into holiday dressing.
Outerwear
Women love a man in a blazer and for that reason we love the UNIQLO wool blended jersey jacket – sharp, stylish and comfortable, it will look equally at home paired with a tee and jeans or shirt and chinos.
When traveling you also need a more practical and warm cover-up that you throw over your outfit when the weather takes a turn for the worse. Carry an Ultra Light Down jacket in your bag for just those occasions.
Accessories
You’re going on holiday, show off a little! This UNIQLO Wool hunting Cap will do just that! If you want to look sharp and sophisticated, get yourself this accessory.
You may think that scarves are a little feminine, well you would be wrong! Take cues from the runways – scarves for men are very in for the A/W season. You’ll look great in this Furoshiki (Sou Sou) scarf, which adds a touch of pristine Japanese style to any outfit
