Planning Your Capsule Wardrobe
Know Your Itinerary
The first step to planning the ultimate Bangkok honeymoon wardrobe is knowing your itinerary and the weather conditions for the time of year you'll be visiting.
Really think about what you'll be doing for the bulk of each day of your trip – sightseeing, museum hopping, shopping, fine dining?
By lumping like activities together, you'll better be able to plan what to wear each day (and cut down on needing to create multiple outfits for the same activity).
Create Your Combinations
Once you have a basic grasp on how many days/times you'll be doing each activity, then you can roughly calculate 1-2 combinations that would work for each activity.
You do not need to plan 1-2 completely different outfits for each – just figure out a look that can be created using one or two special items combined with some foundation pieces.
Also, keep in mind any special requirements or dress codes for the activities (i.e. covered shoulders or walking shoes).
Plan Your Foundation
Next, you'll need to plan your foundation items (generally, shoes/boots, dresses, shorts, skirts, lingerie/swimwear, outerwear, and tops).
Pick 1-2 items in neutral colors for each category that would work for at least 2-3 of your planned activity days.
Don't stress out about this – you may find later that you can swap out a foundation piece for a fun accent piece later.
Plan Your Wardrobe
Lastly, you'll plan each day's wardrobe and look to see where you can add/swap out accessories or accent pieces to create different looks with each combination.
Try to see if you can reuse the same accessory with another combination – you're looking for every single item you pack to do double (or triple) duty.
It's okay to pack a few little somethings special and lovely to wear at night.
After all, it's your honeymoon!
