I am off to the Edinburgh festival this weekend. I am there 5 days 4 nights. I am just taking my cycling rucksack for myself as I am taking a suitcase up for a production.
So I will have the clothes I travel in - no ideas what yet, a minimal wash bag and .... Please help me out with ideas

What is your style, age and size OP and is there anything you don't like wearing/anything you really love and suit?

Jeans
Vest top
Oversized shirt
Vintage t shirt
Jersey turtleneck

Boots or trainers

Day 1 (travel)
Jeans, vest top, shirt
DAY 2
jersey turtleneck under slip dress
Day 3
Jeans vintage tee shirt
Day 4
Slip dress with either tshirt or shirt knotted over top
Day 5 (travel)
Jeans and Jersey turtleneck and shirt

This should keep your rucksack fairly empty as you will wear the bulkiest stuff for travel days. If you sleep in the vest top and pants you won't need to pack pjs. If you are in a communal place and will feel too exposed, if you have a kimono type top that could be your dressing gown and would also go over the Slip dress to look very boho

@crochetmonkey74 Thanks so much.
I am a size 14 and love pattern. I have had a try at your idea, I especially like the idea of vest also used to sleep in and a kimono as day and dressing gown. My bag is rammed and I still have wash bag and chargers.

How big is your backpack? Have you got access to washing machine when you are there?
If you follow my plan, you should only have 3 items to put in the backpack? I've travelled with a couple more and toiletries and a book etc in a fjallraven backpack which is quite small before?
