CITY BREAK 

Summer in the city bustles with heady nights and day-time adventures, so here’s what to pack for the perfect stylish balance.

Menswear
European cities sizzle in the summer with the promise of foodie delights by day and cocktail- fuelled adventures by night so you’ll need a sophisticated balance of smart and casual looks.

Linen is the perfect hot-weather fabric so check out the stunning neutral tone shirts and polos by Polo Ralph Lauren and , paired with a relaxed tailored jacket by Corneliani, and contemporary sandals by Baldinini. Elevate the look with Dsquared2's of minimalist gold jewellery, or dress it down with a pair of tailored shorts by Paul Smith.

Womenswear
Sprinkle your city-break wardrobe with liberal amounts of sophistication and effortless day/night looks. While bold maxi dresses by Twinset can take you from the beach to the bar, we’re loving the subtle luxury vibe right now, with understated basics like white vests and tees paired with relaxed tailoring by Pinko and Karl Lagerfeld. Round the look off with strappy sandals by Pollini and a floppy sun hat for protection from the sun (and paparazzi, of course).

Kidswear
There’s no better way to kindle your kids’ curiosity for the world than a city break. New tastes and experiences call for a getaway wardrobe that’s cool and comfortable so look out for statement t-shirts by Levi's and Nike, as well as the cutest beachwear by Gallo. For the girls, floral dresses by Kids Around and Il Gufo are fun and feminine, while the boys will love smartening up for dinnerwith a shirt by Monnalisa.
