Holiday Wardrobe Essentials

Whether you’re hoping to get away abroad or looking to venture to a new place in your own country, there’s nothing quite like the excitement of preparing a holiday wardrobe. Make sure you’re all packed and ready to go with the freshest essentials from Hurleys.


Travel Tips:

  • Pack cleverly by identifying the type of holiday you’re embarking on, this will keep your suitcase free of being crammed with unnecessary items. Who knows, maybe you’ll want to save some space to return with holiday souvenirs? 

  • In addition to this, try to pick out clothes that can be mixed and matched with each other. Could a dress work poolside with sandals and then with heels in the evening?

  • Staying comfy on your journey to and from your destination is a priority – especially if it’s a long one. Leave your smartest jeans or fancy dresses tucked in your suitcase and allow yourself to lay back in some sweats. Our fabulous selection of brands will keep you looking your best as you chill out.

  • If you’ve got children with you, be sure to add a changing bag to your luggage. They are an absolute blessing for attending to little ones on the go, and thanks to our number of branded designs from BOSS to Emporio Armani, these handy bags won’t cramp your style. 


What to Pack for a Beach Holiday 

The holiday escape we’re all craving, a relax by the beach, requires a certain type of attire for you to stay cool, comfortable and confident as you kick back in the sun. Embrace breezy materials and bright colours, perfect for a sunbathe or splash in the sea.


From vibrant pops of colour to logo based designs, our Men’s Boss swimwear collection boasts a vast array of Men’s swim shorts that has something for everyone. Each pair is breathable and quick-drying for comfort.


Whether you’re a swimsuit or a bikini person, treat yourself to a design by one of our luxury brands. Ted Baker makes life easy by carrying patterns across bikinis, swimsuits, and cover-ups so that you can throw an outfit together in no time and get out into the sun.


Simply slip on some sandals or slides and you’re ready to go. Birkenstock sandals are super comfy thanks to their signature cork soles and stylish enough to take away with you and even wear once you return home – what’s not to love?

Don’t forget to pack some sunnies, like a classic pair of Ray-Bans, to perfect an iconic beach holiday look. 


What to Pack for a City Break

A city break could see you hop from bars, restaurants, galleries, parks and public transport in quick succession.  Aim to figure out outfits that will transition seamlessly into each environment – after all, who knows where the hustle and bustle of the city will lead you? 


Style a smart pair of black jeans with a tidy t-shirt for an effortlessly well put together look. Dresses can work in a similar fashion, they’re appropriate for fancier occasions but can also be easily toned down with a simple change of shoe or make-up. 

Comfy shoes are a must if you’re venturing on foot. Trainers or even a chic Chelsea boot are perfect companions for hitting the city streets.


What to Pack for a Camping Adventure Holiday

An adventurous camping holiday is one where you really want to prepare what you’re bringing, so be sure to go over your checklist ruthlessly! 


A sturdy pair of boots is an absolute must-have for contending with the outdoor terrain, wellies are also a good option since they have the advantage of being water-resistant. 

Kit your shoes out with some snug welly socks for comfort and warmth. There’s no reason why you couldn’t even throw in a pair of cosy slippers for a little home comfort whilst you’re cooped up inside the tent.


Be sure to pack a jacket or coat to keep the chill off of your back as you brave the great outdoors, but perhaps opt for a lightweight option so you’re not being weighed down as you explore.
