Very small capsule wardrobe for trip to Mallorca

[Heartrate]

Three nights in October, average temp 25 degrees. I'm thinking I should sort it now while there are still summer clothes around. Our days including travel days. There'll be evenings out, sightseeing and probably some lazing by the pool.

The handbagage allowance is tiny, but I'm going to give it a go.

I'm going to run a race so I need running kit. I'm thinking:

Travel in jeans, "nice top", running shoes and casual jacket that can also be worn over running kit.

Pack

Swimsuit
1 dress, colour to go with the running shoes, possibly strappy
T-shirt dress to double as beach cover up also to wear with trainers
Running kit
Shorts
Top

Maxi skirt that will go with the two tops
Silver Havanians
Sunglasses

That's OK isn't it, although I'm thinking the skirt might not fit and maybe not needed?

Is there a way to do it more efficiently?

I would try and squeeze in another top or dress just in case you spill your dinner on your other clothes one night!

I take these lined cotton maxi skirts with deep yoga waist band on holiday and wear them hoiked up as tiered strapless pool/beach dresses too.

Dual purpose is always good when you have a limited packing allowance.

Add a pair of light trousers, a cardigan/wrap for cooler evenings, a pair of shorts & vest tops that will mix & match with what you have already packed.

Agree you will need some kind of jacket / cardigan for evenings as it's likely to get a bit chilly - particularly if it's towards the end of October.

Search youtube videos for cabin baggage only summer capsule wardrobe holiday. Lots of inspiration there and handy packing tips for toiletries etc.

what about nightwear? Summer pjs pack up small
and I’d go for a going out jacket rather than running jacket because I think you’d only need it in the evening
don’t forget running socks and sports bra!

@Rina66 do the skirt come in other colours, I do like it, but would like it in black

I have it in black, white and khaki - can't remember what other colours it came in, but there were lots as I was struggling to choose!

Here it is from Bricks & Stitches in pink but it's £45....

Layer up for on the plane. Sports leggings over 5x knickers and jeans over the top kind of thing?

I've done that before - it's well worth doing 😄

Invest in some vac pac bags.

You can get ones that work really well just with rolling and allow you to take more!

Jeans. Shorts T shirts. Nice tops for evening (it can bet cool at night )
Light Jacket
