This is how you pack for a spa weekend
While a long weekend soaking in a hot tub is the epitome of relaxation, knowing how to pack for a weekend at a spa can put a strain on your clothes. Finally, it is important to dress effortlessly between all your hot stone and salt massages.


In an average spa, there's no room to carry heavy bags, but with a little planning, fine-tuning your clothing options can be as easy and rewarding as a carefully planned facial.

Wear bathing suits

Since most spas make full use of the pool facilities, a bikini is an obvious must. For a warm-weather weekend getaway, the Tommy Hilfiger Spring Summer 2016 Multicolor Crochet Two Pieces Trousers are beautifully shiny and on-trend. Dsquared2 also brought a chic character to the swimwear of the same season, with large white stripes for a sporty touch.

For those who prefer a feminine aesthetic, brands like Brigitte offer soft and sensual bikinis and tops. With playful cuts and subtle finishes, this 1950s pastel swimsuit is perfect for a fresh poolside look.

Cover with a straitjacket

Swim in a straitjacket from the sauna to the treatment room. The Dolce & Gabbana Spring/Summer 2016 collection features simple white tones with flowing shapes, adorned with bold plant-inspired prints. Floral elements serve as the basis for spa outfit ideas, creating an unconscious connection with nature and enhancing the sense of well-being and alertness nourished during a relaxing weekend.

While the caftan is closely associated with a beach vacation, the sophisticated kimono is an inspiring alternative. Underwear supplier Fleur du Mal has updated the traditional Japanese hat design, shifting prints and colors inspired by oriental prints and colors to a monochromatic nude palette.

Keep it simple with sportswear

If you're wondering how to pack your suitcase for a spa weekend, swap out your matching socks for comfy, luxe sportswear.

Thinking about getting the most out of your workout sessions on a spa vacation? Adidas by Stella McCartney introduced functional sportswear with a makeover for Spring/Summer 2016. Flattering palm prints and stripes combine with functional, breathable materials to create sportswear that is both functional and modern.

Compete with Chloe in really cool sports to play. Men's joggers were paired with ultra-soft women's shirts in the Spring '16 collection, making it easy to change the outfit from everyday tableware to exclusive tableware.

Simplify your shoe choice

A suitcase full of shoes is less important to pack for a spa vacation than, say, for a multi-directional cruise, but it's always a good idea to pack at least one pair of shoes: flip flops and sneakers. Also plan to have sandals in your bag for the evening, especially if you plan to dine at the hotel restaurant. A textured pair is perfect for dressing up a freshly finished pedicure.

Discover the wonders of Marni jewelry from the SS16 collection or opt for dazzling combinations of gemstones from Dolce & Gabbana. Combine it with a flowing long dress and create a sophisticated and comfortable evening look.

If you're looking for flip-flops that go with everything from a bikini to joggers, check out the Saint Laurent SS16 Rainbow Stripe foam pumps. Instead, the French brand adopted the pom pattern, one of the funniest trends of the season due to its surprisingly fresh SS16 shoes.

Waterslides are also a versatile option to consider when deciding how to pack your suitcase for a spa vacation. Decorated with beaded floral designs, Simone Roch's creations add a touch of sophistication to the simple kaftan.

Get your pajamas ready for the night.

Because a good night's sleep goes hand in hand with an invigorating spa break, well-fitting pajamas are essential for relaxation and sleep.

Fortunately, night and day pajamas were one of the highlights of AW16 fashion. Alberta Ferretti teamed bright red ensembles with chandelier earrings and heavily embroidered pumps for a relaxed evening look.
