PACKING LIST | LONDON

August 5, 2014 by jessica Leave a Comment

Today’s packing list for London comes from Marissa of Thoughts from a Coffee Shop: 

I went to London two summers ago and instantly fell in love with everything about it. The museums are wonderful, afternoon tea is a trend I can get behind and I love the rain showers that pop up mid-afternoon. While in London get ready to eat fish and chips, learn a ton of history and walk up and down quaint little streets.  Who knows, you may just pick up a British accent!

  1. To combat the daily showers, bring along a raincoat. This trench will keep you dry and looking pulled together, even after wandering around the tube station.
  2. One can never go wrong with a striped top, no matter what the season.
  3. A leather tote will do wonders for carrying along guide books and stashing little souvenirs from shops as you explore.
  4. Good walking shoes are a must but skip the athletic ones, unless you want to be labeled as a tourist! These ones provide support but blend in with the locals.
  5. Battling the elements can make hair unmanageable but slipping in a headband helps control flyaways.

I recently repainted the wall in our bedroom (that’s closer to a green-blue-grey IRL) and it’s serving up fall vibes with the faux maple stems that are hanging out just until our new lamps arrive.
