Hot, humid destinations are some of the easiest places to overpack. When temperatures climb, it’s tempting to pack extra “just in case” outfits, backup shoes, and far more clothing than you’ll actually wear. Instead, I focus on a few simple principles: • Pack a fresh top for each day • Repeat bottoms • Choose lightweight, breathable fabrics • Bring shoes designed for walking in the heat • Change into a fresh top for evenings • Don’t overlook the importance of undergarments Bottoms can often be worn multiple times before laundering. Plan on rewearing each bottom 2-3 times. Tops sit closest to the body and tend to need more frequent washing.Bottoms can often be worn multiple times before laundering. Don’t pack separate dinner tops. Wear each top first in the evening, then save the rewear for daytime later in the trip. That’s why I typically pack more tops than bottoms when traveling in hot weather. The result is a travel wardrobe that stays comfortable, feels polished, and still fits in a carry-on.
