Today I'm sharing 5 tips to build an interesting travel capsule that you won't get bored with.
On this channel, I share #slowfashion and #sustainablefashion tips that center around how to #shopyourcloset, and restyling pieces you already own. I also spotlight brands that I believe in every now and then. I believe in #creativityoverconsumption, and that we all have the power to be conscious consumers.
Slow fashion looks different for everyone, and I'm so grateful you share this space with me!

EDITOR: @Lia Vanus - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I 100% agree with packing some eye-catching jewelry for travel. Many years ago, my luggage did not make it to my destination for 2 weeks. I remember how lucky I felt to have packed an adjustable gold chain, a colorful multi-strand necklace, and a few bold earrings in my on-board personal item. I wore the same 3 or 4 shirts for the first 10 days...but with all the colored necklace strands twisted together one day, only the blue beads another, big bold red earrings next afternoon, or the adjustable gold chain at its fullest length for an evening outing. After a little over a week, I resigned myself to knowing my suitcases were never going to make their way back to me, so I gave in and bought 1 dress, 1 pair of pants, and 2 tops, but honestly, looking at the pictures, no one could tell I wore the same things over and over again at the beginning of the trip because the mix-and-match of jewelry played such a leading role in how put-together my outfits looked. Ever since that experience, I make sure to have at least 2 changes of clothes, some cool jewelry, and a few scarves in my carry-on. Lost luggage is NOT going to ruin my vacation! (BTW, my luggage pieces were found the last day of my holiday, so I collected them at the airport and flew back home with never-opened suitcases.)
Ahh what a story Irai! Thanks for sharing! xx
@@AlyssaBeltempo Yes, I have a lot of "traveling" and "starting over in a new location" stories, it seems. Thank you for the inspiration! I believe that feeling good about how one presents oneself to the world can have great impact on the outcome of one's path through life.
@SilverSerpent64 Thank you for such lovely words. I learned a lot from that experience. One habit I've developed since that I didn't mention: I now save money to buy a wearable memento of every place I visit. I try to get something "distinct" or representative of the places I've been---a cork purse in Portugal, niche perfume in France, a batik skirt in Polynesia, an emerald charm in Colombia, a jade ring in Guatemala, silver earrings in Peru. Much better souvenirs than magnets or liqueur! I can wear my pieces for the rest of my life as a memory of the countries I've been to, and very often, support a traditional artisan or a small business while I'm there.
@@irairod5160 what a story you have. I'm currently putting together a small capsule wardrobe for an upcoming trip where we will be moving cities every 2 days so my bag will need to be light (COO). I always put a couple outfits in my personal item just in case the airline makes me check my carry-on at the last minute and loses my bag. I will look to colorful jewelry and accessories to make my smaller capsule work. Thank you for the inspiration. Oh, and I've already started doing what you do with trip mementos. I no longer buy souvineers for others and only buy what will bring me joy when I rewear it.
@Kimberly Berlin Thank you for the kind and thoughtful comment! Yes, pack 2 pairs of eye-catching earrings and 2 necklaces that can be worn long or short. If they all mix and match, even better! Most pictures are taken from the waist up, so give preference to those rather than bracelets, belts, or even purses. Another very lightweight accessory that I think adds a lot of mileage is a silky or satiny square scarf. It can become a headband, a neckerchief, a ponytail tie, a bracelet, a strap for a wristlet, a headscarf, a shoulder wrap, a mini skirt over a bathing suit or leggings, a dickie under a shirt...and it can hang from a belt loop or a handbag. If you make a capsule in which there's a predominant neutral color (mine, in summer and spring, is usually navy) and every other color you pack looks good with it (brown, nude, or taupe shoes, many light-colored tops and a few brights, 1 or 2 prints or graphic designs) you will easily have 20 combinations in a backpack.
Interesting subject Alyssa which ties in nicely to my new approach to dressing in general which is to color block. I basically have 3 capsule wardrobes. One in navy, another in black, and the third in white & cream. I also have colorful summer dresses which stand alone. I recently traveled for 2 weeks using only the black wardrobe, (3 bottoms, 1 button-up, 2 silk T-shirts, 2 cotton T-shirts, 1 camisole, long cashmere cardigan, with a couple of cream items thrown in, a cardigan, 1 silk top, 1 camisole. Animal print flats, black leather loafers, black and white sneakers. 3 scarves but ended up only wearing one black & grey leopard print. It was a visit to London & Paris in October so lack of color was totally appropriate but I did use jewelry to brighten things up. It's amazing how little one can actually get away with and I really enjoyed the simplicity of getting dressed!
I always bring a large cotton scarf. One time, I had to wear it as a skirt, a dress, a top, a shawl, etc over the course of a week because our luggage got lost.
Always. Me too.
I’m nearly 58 and a lot of things I couldn’t wear (shorts!) but I could resonate with the concept of having a couple of silhouettes you love, keeping a neutral palette but then add some texture and colour to keep it interesting! I don’t wear much jewellery apart from a watch but I love statement earrings as my hair is short and choppy and they take up very little room in my suitcase 😊
I used to be SO low maintenance when traveling. I never was an over packer and I always had a great sense of personal style. But recently my husband and I started a TH-cam channel and started making videos. And I realized, watching some of them, that I'm guilty of making some major wardrobe malfunctions; I mean things like my bra showing or my bitty bits actually showing 🤯😳😖. Apparently, I was TOO low maintenance and now I need to up my game. I just wanted to say thanks for all your help! I'm glad I can care about my appearance without feeling particularly vain 😊😎.
Don’t forget Alyssa’s other secret for an inspiring travel capsule! …. Great pajamas! I loved how you used the pajama top in some previous outfits!
Yessss!! Good pajamas are essential!
I like to challenge myself sometimes for traveling- example: I was with my family in Bavaria in spring a couple years ago- I decided to pack ONLY white and creams…..the combinations and “add on’s “ I chose to add during my trip made it really interesting! Gonna do it with black or brown/ tans next! Aloha!
I would like to see what you bought during traveling al together. What you left with and what you take back home 🍀
I agree that bringing more colour and interest for vacations is key. I love bringing my best foot forward for vacation and in an unfamiliar environment it's even more important to be confident in your outfit.
Thank you for another great video!
I love this and all things travel! You're so wise with your analysis. A well-planned capsule can make a trip more fun. If you have exactly the right mix, you'll save time, money, and bag weight. No dithering around, and you might even have to (get to) purchase a few more treasures on your journey. I have sweaters, shoes, and jewelry pieces that are the best possible "souvenirs" from my journeys. I get to enjoy them always. Don't forget to try on EVERYTHING before you depart to ensure each item is ideal. Bon voyage!
Great tip about trying on!!
When I travel, I’ve learned to be realistic about what I take, especially with regard to being comfortable if I’m going to be out and about all day long. Because I never check a bag, I only take my faves, those things I never tire of. Cold weather traveling is the most difficult because clothes are bulkier, so I wear/carry my “biggest” items, i.e boots, jeans, heaviest sweater, etc. And, of course, being able to mix and match is crucial. For sleeping, I take a good-looking, but comfy, street-ready top and bottom, so I can run out for an early morning coffee or a late dinner. I also fly with a HUGE, but malleable, canvas tote to transport my purse and any “soft” clothing that can easily survive being squished under the seat in front of me.
Love these tips!! Xo
Great tips. I always set out possible outfits at least one week before, in a 3 colour palette. I finalise it when I know what the weather will be like. I’ve just been away for 7 days in the UK with a minimal capsule, 4 tops, 3 bottoms, 2 layers and 2 shoes. That was basically 12 outfits before varying the shoes and layers which brings it up to 48.
Nice!! Sounds like a great capsule!!
A color palette really does help when traveling took me over 50 years to do this
I really admire how beautifully your clothes seem to harmonize with your personality.
Even if there are items I would never choose for myself (such as animal print ) I still love it on you because you wear it so well, and it doesn't come across as costume-y. So, thanks! ❤️
Ah thank you for the compliment!
Love the backgrounds you have been shooting during your travel . Loads of love 😘
Monica Vinader jewelry new to me. There are several “bold” signature rings! Thank you !
Hi Alyssa!
Your fan from Lecce here! ;)
Loved this video, like all your content, always useful and inspiring! I have 2 work trips coming in October, to the north of Italy, (one in Tuscany and then the other one to Rimini and Venezia) that include both days where I will have business meetings throughout the day, and some days when we`ll be doing site inspections and nice activities, and I only have a bag that is a bit bigger than a carry-on bag so I`ll try to really follow your tips to sort out my packing!
Thank you for this!!! Hope you`re doing well!
some tips and tricks to think about. it is still uber hot here in florida, so to think about packing sweaters? ugh. and double ugh for jeans which i just do NOT wear. ever. hate them. lol. why? they don't look right on me. ever. never have. so while i cannot get much specifically relatable to my own personal issue of picking out a capsule for some upcoming travel, i still love all your basic tips. the one takeaway for me is about the jewelry. mine is mostly vintage costume, but i use it for the same purpose. i have been giving out this advice to others who come to me because i have become known as the queen of packing light when travelling. lol. (lots of the advice comes directly from you, my dear!) thanks again and kitty kisses for apollo.
I just love how you layer jewelry and clothes! Great tips lady Beltempo!! Happy Sunday to you :)
Thank you so much wRen! Hope you have a great week! xx
Traveling in Germany (mostly Berlin) right now, and have packed according to what I learned here in the last year. It is going great - other than that I wish I HAD taken the wool scarf, brrr. Also, about half of my travel capsule is 2nd hand, which I tell people about wherever I go. Thank you for all the inspiration, Alyssa...you have changed the way I shop and dress. Wish I could be at next weekend's event, but am still traveling. I am sure everyone will have fun!
oh my gosh Claudia, thank you for sharing this - have a wonderful time in Germany!! We'll miss you but will see you at the next one!
Right on time! Thanks!
yess using this for my upcoming travels
Thank you loved this video!
Loved this! Such great ideas
Thank you! ♥️🙏
Happy Sunday Alyssa. As always great tips.
So good! So good! You are amazing! Thanks a lot, Alyssa
I struggle with packing and this is so helpful. ❤️
About to travel to Bali so super excited to see this pop up. Also 2 weeks over Christmas with family where I need a mix. Thanks
Hello again….what a wonderful video! So clean, inspiring and real! The best of my Sunday! I think I need a trip now ☺️
Thank you dear!! My hardest decision is which bags to take?? Your 3 word style really has helped me determine my aesthetic👍 thank you!! I would love a vlog about all the new thrifted items yv bought during your journeys, I’ve only seen that one brown square bag with the guitar strap in all your outfits.
Love your creativity and thinking out of the box. You look stunning Alyssa. Thank you for sharing this amazing video and tips. Remain blessed xxx
Yes. We are coming to Trogir/split and Zagreb and sailing around the islands on Saturday for a week🎉
VIS TONIGHT❤️🔥
What about packing for a Europe trip in the fall?
beautiful!!!
Really great video. So many useful tips. Thanks very much, Alyssa!
Thanks for watching Susan!
I'm so glad I found this channel recently. Also, the comments are so nice and inspiring! ❤
I love, love your videos, make style look effortless. I adore your black pants that you wear , any hope of finding a similiar pair?
Alyssa, these are great tips...thanks so much! I struggle when my trips combine both work and leisure travel. I love the suggestions to stick with a minimal color pallet with a "pop" of color and interesting accessories. I Love Monica Vinader and have many of her pieces. The new pieces from this recent collab are beautiful.
Thank you Nancy! That would be a tough combo but I'm glad you found those tips helpful! So glad you like MV! xx
Great video
definitely gonna keep this in mind when I’m packing for my ultra-extended christmas break! 😁
Yayyy enjoy your break!
Thanks for this very helpful videos. Have you done or can you do a video on shoes for traveling. How many and best types. The inks
Buon Giorno Alyssa! Although I have yet to purchase a M.V. piece, I do have an outstanding jewelry collection that has been mostly gifted to me; and your tips truly inspire me to play with new combinations and to wear it everyday. When I wear jewelry, I feel connected to those who gave me the piece, and I feel content with my styles. 😊 Have a beautiful day ... p.s. loving the high waisted wide leg denim trousers
I’m not traveling anytime soon, but WILL use these tips when I do. Always enjoy seeing your wardrobe re-imagined. I have searched through my jewelry recently and found a nice collection of Judith Ripka items I can layer for Fall. Thanks for the inspo. Looking forward to the Live next Saturday!
Oooh love that you shopped your closet for new jewelry !!
@@AlyssaBeltempo turns out I had good taste and am looking forward to using things I enjoyed collecting
Very useful video. Could you please tell me what model of Levi's are you wearing? Thank you!
Thank you.
Ciao Alyssa! Happy Sunday! I love your black and white shoes. Where can I find something similar? 🥰 XOXO
Love your style! What brand are your wide legged jeans?
I just rewatched this to make sure my travel capsule for Europe made sense and it does (I learnt from the best 😉). Did all this fit in a carry on?? A carry on is my plan but not sure I can pull it off.
I have really been enjoying your videos and have subscribed as well. That camel blazer is to die for! Would you share where that is from? Thanks from Texas!
Ciao Alyssa! Came back to view again. 😁 I have a similar leopard silk skirt. How did you tweak it to show more leg? Also, what is my style called if I like leopard print and touchable fabrics like silk, lace, leather, velvet, crocodile, etc.I don't know what cashmere feels like but I'd probably like it too. Is that a style or just that I like touchable fabrics? 🥰 XOXO
Your style is probably a mix of creative/artistic and romantic. I relate!
This has been one of my favorites so far! I am traveling fo 3 weeks on the Rhine and am expecting much cooler weather than that where I live. I’m really struggling on what to wear since it is still in the 90s here
I'm so glad!! Have a wonderful trip!!
I've been in England and in Paris in the spring when it was 40-60° F in the daytime. Take at least one heavy wool cardigan (or 3) plus a trenchcoat for the rain. A warm scarf, or you can buy one there. A travel umbrella. Plan to dress in layers. In 3 weeks, it can go from pleasant fall weather to winter, so those wool cardigans will be your friend under your trenchcoat. I envy you! It's going to be beautiful.
It's been so long since I've traveled. Yes, we are going to Disney World this December however there is definitely a different cultural vibe there vs Europe. Lol.
Went to Greece in 2006 and wore minimal jewelry... I tend to purchase jewelry when traveling as a unique momento. My Athena signet ring and my handcrafted silver and green stone pendant necklace are faves. Next cultural trip I'll keep these tips in mind.
yes! That is a unique souvenir - your ring sounds amazing! Have a wonderful time in Disney World!!
Could you tell me what brand of jeans you are wearing in this video please. Also love all your content
I love those jeans too!
I LOVE that black dress at the beginning. Where did you get that?
I make my packing list early and edit often. I use only carryon and am limited due to walking a lot or hiking vacation thus my outfits tend to be outdoorsy; mainly tech pants, easy wash and dry layer friendly tops.
I bring my ipad and battery bank all the time therefore bag has to be light weight, no leather bag. I mostly cook breakfast and dinner from scratch, thus don’t need dressy outfit. I love accessorize with headwear, scarves, and jewelry I don’t mind losing (nothing expensive). They are small and packing friendly.
After the trip I highlight the items on packing list I didn’t use during the trip as a reminder not to bring for similar future trips.
Awesome Video!!! NEW subscriber. Curious ....you are so fit ,can you do a video on fitness and food when traveling??? Tks!!!
I loved your guidance on all..
where can I find black/white shoes?
Really like the towned down 😆look.
greetings from US 🎈💕💚
thank you! They are secondhand but the brand is naturalizer!
Where did you buy your sandals ?
The top/scarf with the poppies and the wheat is giving me all the Ukrainian vibes 🥰
❤️❤️❤️
I love your skirt and have been trying to find one like that.
Is it vintage or can be bought?
it is secondhand but not vintage ... the brand is runaway I believe!
How long will your coupon code work?
Hi Alyssa! Where are your lovely black sandals from? I have been on the hunt for something similar!
They look like they might be from Ancient Greek Sandals. They are great investment pieces and are very versatile.
Would love the link to your sneakers. Not the Veja. Thank you!
they are Asics Lyte Classic -
Do you have a link to your tanned colored shoes? Or are they vintage too
the tan sandals are vintage also .,. they belonged to my aunt!
How comfortable are the Ancient Greeks?
Honestly, I don't even think about getting bored with my clothes on trips! I don't tavel to put on a fashion show for strangers. What I want, even on a long vacation, are clothes that I can just grab when I'm jet lagged without worrying that I'll look like I got dressed in the dark or a hobo. I learned to pack very light. My necessities are in my carry-on; at least 3 knit tops, socks, underwear, jewelry, basic makeup and skincare, toothbrush, etc. My pjs, spare shoes, more tops and bottoms, a dressy outfit, etc. go in my checked suitcase. I wear black or dark blue jeans, my trainers, and my outerwear on the plane. The airline lost my suitcase on a 10-day trip to London and the hotel never told me that the airline had delivered it. After 5 days I asked at the desk about contacting the airline and they had it in the storeroom the whole time.
Am I the only one who completely ruins her shoes when travelling? I do so much walking my shoes are pretty much on their last legs when I get back.
You're not the only one! I have a strategy for long trips. I'm a big walker/hiker, so a few months ahead I buy new (or select from my closet) hiking shoes, running shoes, and sandals. I wear them in (before traveling) for about a month or certain number of miles. Then they're perfect for the journey. I might also take flip flops for the beach. Before I depart, I'll either donate or dispose of worn shoes. They served me well, and I've had a fabulous adventure too!
I solve that problem by wearing Doc Martins for the most part, but I realize that's not practical for everyone/everywhere.
No, you are not alone. I once traveled to France with a single pair of shoes (congratulating myself on my light packing), and lost the heel of one somewhere on the cobblestones at Versailles - didn't notice till back at the hotel. Fortunately the French-speaking friend I was with was able to help me navigate the local shoe store/European sizes. Now I always take 2 pairs for even short trips, just in case.
I was a subscriber years ago and then unfollowed. Now I'm back and realizing you enhanced your focus to include lots of travel. It's so helpful to see other people's travel capsules while you're putting together your own. I feel a binge in my future.
You could skin Venus with your beauty and style, like many Italians goals yeah? That is why the Jews prophesized it and created Briss they knew Italians would worship everything in Beauty and Love but Venus is a Castrated God no? A warning for Men to be careful from the Greeks? I could never be careful, that is why I am in a desert of Love, and my name means Sea of Magic in Welsh.
