How to Pack for a European Summer Vacation

How to Pack for a European Summer Vacation

Europe is diverse, the weather is unpredictable, and your suitcase has limits. Here’s what to actually pack for a European summer trip.

1. Universal Adaptor

One investment you’ll use for the rest of your life. Don’t leave home without it.

2. Quality Sunglasses

Comfort, sun protection, and style all in one. Surprisingly easy to forget.

3. Your Sunscreen

Bring your own — especially if you have sensitive skin. European brands may not agree with you. Better safe than sunburned in Santorini. (Or pack JudyP tops with built-in UPF 50 and skip the reapplying entirely.)

4. 1–2 Long Sleeves

European evenings can be surprisingly cool even in summer. A JudyP 3/4 sleeve top packs flat and comes out wrinkle-free.

5. Athletic Gear

Hiking, cycling, coastal walks — Europe rewards the active traveler. Pack one sports bra and bike shorts and you’re covered.

6. Several Tank Tops

Your most-worn item. Pack 3–4 in coordinating JudyP colors and you’ll have endless outfit combinations from two bottoms. Wrinkle-free, UPF 50, moisture-wicking — the Stephanie Tank is built for this trip.

7. Swimsuits

European beaches are legendary. Pack at least two.

8. One or Two Pairs of Trousers

Takes up little space, adds significant outfit versatility. Dark jeans work for everything from day trips to dinners.

9. A Versatile Dress

One dress that goes from day to dinner. The Deena Sleeveless Dress is wrinkle-free and packs beautifully — change your shoes and accessories and it’s a completely different look.

10. Portable Charger

You’ll use it every single day. Maps, photos, translation apps — your phone is your lifeline. Keep it charged.

Pack light. Travel farther.
