On Tuesday, Jason & I are being whisked away by AirFrance & Club Med to experience six days of snow filled adventures in the French Alps!!! 

Being me, I have been planning everything I need to pack for the last 2 weeks (or possibly 3)! Today I finally brought the last few pieces I needed and have successfully packed just x1 suitcase & x1 hand luggage bag. Trust me, this was no easy feat! 

You would think that all I need is simply ski gear & a few casual pieces, however with an amazing itinerary provided, including skiing, yoga, spa pools, beautiful dinners, cocktail parties and much more - I have managed to pack for all weather & occasions. Below is a list of what to pack for a French Alps escape...

THE ABSOLUTE ESSENTIALS:

• Passport &/or Drivers License
• Travel Insurance - I would suggest getting cover for Winter Skiing too
• Itinerary - add all your flight details onto your phone so they are easy to access too.
• Medication
• Emergency Numbers - Family, Travel Agent, Embassy
• Wallet & Credit / Eftpos Card
• Iphone & Charger (international adaptor as well)

TRAVEL NO BRAINERS:

• Grown Alchemist Travel Kit - this is an absolute favourite of mine when I travel. It consists of a mini shampoo, conditioner, hydra-repair day cream, lip balm, body cream, facial cleaner & body cleanser - the best!
• An Organised Life Notebook & Pen - perfect for keeping a travel journal of your favourite memories, cafes, hotels etc
• Mecca Cosmetica SPF 50+ Face Cream 
• Headphones
• Laptop & Charger
• Camera
• Eye Mask & Ear Plugs
• Mon Purse Monogrammed Travel & Passport Holder
• CK2 Perfume
• An Organised Life Watch

CASUAL FAVOURITES

TIP: Always pack in outfits - and just to be safe, always take a couple of extra tops. In terms of heavy coats - wear this on the plane & store it under or above your seat to save room in your suitcase. 

• H Brand Fur Jacket
• Viktoria & Woods Coat & Knit
• UGG Boots - perfect for the snow
• Calvin Klein Tee
• Neuw Denim Jeans
• Superga Sneakers - for plane & travel only not snow! 
• Jasmine & Will Bespoke Sleepwear - I can't get enough of monogrammed pieces! 
• Alexander Wang Leather Boots

DRESS IT UP

TIP:  To avoid creases in your favourite dress or pant, always roll your delicates & more dressy items.

• Bec & Bridge Dress
• Theron Knit
• Holly Ryan Earrings
• Bec & Bridge Flares
• Sol Sana Boots
• Daniel Avakian Blazer
• Classic Black Heels

SKIING & SPORTS:

TIP: Layering is key. Check the long range weather forecast as well so that you are prepared for all conditions.

• Uniqlo Light Weight Vest & Jackets - Black & White - these fold down into tiny little bags and are perfect for travelling with not to mention super warm
• I Love Mr Mittens Scarf & Beanie
• Ski Jacket & Pants
