Okay my loves, I want to know how many of you live a double life, and no, I’m not talking about your sentimental life, that is nobody’s biz but yours ;)I’m referring to the one where you have to adjust your outfits to the multiple personalities you have in one day.

Summer break is upon us, this changes my schedule enormously, my day is filled with kids activities therefore I wear outfits that can be easily styled from day to night with simple accessories, I carry theses extras in a spinner in the trunk of my car(see video below) or in the rental’s if I’m on a trip.
Once I leave home with my kiddos all this comes with me; I know I’ll be with them in book stores, parks, visiting museums etc and most likely ending up in a restaurant and believe me after a long day like this, all I want is a glass of wine and grown up conversation with the hubby without having to go back home or to the hotel to change.
That being said, here are my top 5 must-haves pieces of clothing and accessories to bring with you that will take you from a day to date look.
-Ivory linen or cotton blazer
-Dark Jean, bomber or leather jacket
-Trendy belt and statement jewelry.
-Pumps in nude or black, depending on the colors you are wearing
-Clutch or small shoulder bag
OPTIONAL:
Toiletry pouch with hairspray, brush, perfume (samples are the best!) deodorant, face wipes etc. Remember not to leave your creams or foundation in the heat.
Check this video where I put everything in my carry on, this trolley is my favorite for this, the space is just perfect and the divisions keep everything separated, although I don’t have to repack the suitcase everyday, I do like to get the garment bag out of the trunk specially during the summer.
What about you friends? do you carry a mini closet in your car too? what are your essentials?
