IN THE BAG
What to pack for three types of holiday soirees
Words by Bridget Barnett / Photography by Gideon de Kock
Sometimes the difference between a “good night” and a “great night” comes down to a little extra preparation. Here, we show you what to pack to make the most of three different kinds of holiday soirees. Of course, the bags themselves are perfectly considered, too.
A SLEEPOVER
A sleepover at any age calls for hot chocolate – but a sleepover for adults should always include a little champagne. Pack your “pyjama best” and, of course, the matching facemasks are non-negotiable.
A LATE-NIGHT PARTY
While a statement shade of lipstick will never go amiss, it’s the portable battery charger and foldable flat shoes that you’re going to be most thankful for at 4am. And for those who manage to keep going until the sun rises? Sunglasses. We won’t tell anyone you were on your way home.
FROM DESK TO DRINKS
Spruce yourself up in the Uber thanks to an easy-to-apply lip colour, cushion compact – complete with mirror – and a roll-on fragrance. The addition of statement jewellery is also a must for taking your work outfit swiftly from day to night.
