When it comes to packing for a whistlestop weekend in the city, all you need are some carefully curated, hardworking pieces that will help your breeze through a whirlwind of galleries, dinners and rooftop drinks. Start with a versatile yet statement sundress, the perfect choice for keeping cool whilst meandering through unexplored city streets. Then, add a sleek raffia crossbody bag that’s sturdy enough for sightseeing and elegant enough for cocktails. Next, opt for sleek sandals that are effortlessly elegant and will stand up pounding the cobblestones from dawn to dusk. To round off the look,a statement hat from Maison Michel is the ideal final flourishes for a relaxed and well put-together spring-in-the-city look.

First things first, any type of rocky trek requires a practical pair of shoes, but there's no need to sacrifice style just because you’re dressing for the great outdoors. Turn to Roa Hiking’s Andreas Hybrid Leather Boots for a grip that'll hold your ground and cliffside footing. For a weightless feel when travelling, look to airy styles for ease and comfort just like these pair of yoga pants from Beyond Yoga and a handy towel from Abyss. The miles' long view of a mountaintop summit and the warmth of the sun hitting your face – these moments all deserve a background track that equally thrills the senses – a portable speaker from Marshall does just that.

Jetting off to a deserted island? A sleek, structured one-piece from a swim expert such as Eres works overtime in a vacation lineup, doubling as a chic bodysuit with breezy separates for the evening. Next, add in pops of tropical colour: Biyan’s skirt is the ultimate essential for far-flung shores and the perfect partner for Maison Michel’s signature straw hats and Linda Farrow’s statement sunglasses – an uplifting style you’re guaranteed to wear on repeat post-holiday.
