Everything I Packed for 10 Days on the Amalfi Coast

To my mind, packing for a trip is half the fun and the below list is everything I packed for 10 days in and around Italy. This is both an easy resource for you if you spot something you love on my Instagram, and a checklist for me to make sure I don’t leave anything behind! All of this fits in a large zip top boat and tote (small enough to be my personal item - great for packing my big straw tote), this carry on and this checked bag, which is the maximum amount of luggage I ever like to travel with on a trip. I always pack my most special pieces plus the items I need to get me through the first 48-72 hours of the trip in my carry-on just in case the checked bag goes missing for a couple of days, and I highly recommend using apple air tags in your checked bag for extra peace of mind!

Find EVERYTHING I packed for 10 days in Italy below. I hope you find something you love for whatever you have planned for your summer!
