I love traveling for a long weekend with just a carry-on, especially when the destination is sunny.

Light fabrics, simple silhouettes, kaftans and sandals that don't demand space make it feel effortless

Still, for the fashion-conscious girl, traveling with only a carry-on can be challenging, especially as airline regulations keep getting stricter and bags keep getting smaller.




The lesson I learned during my latest weekend in Paris (when I made all possible mistakes, taking a large suitcase and a tiny shoulder bag and then having my suitcase lost for 5 days on the way back) is simple. To make a weekend in a carry-on possible,  you will need a large shoulder bag.

A large shoulder bag is essential - not as an afterthought, but as part of the system
