Hello hello! Today’s blog post is very closely related to yesterday’s, so I wanted to post them back-to-back to provide the whole picture of my packing experience for a four month vacation. Before I went to Scotland for my semester abroad, I spent a lot of time talking and thinking about a capsule wardrobe that would maximize my outfit options while overseas. Today, I’m reviewing what pieces were successful in my capsule wardrobe, what I didn’t end up wearing, and what I would do differently next time. I’m also sharing all 66 outfits I wore abroad in one place, categorized by top.

Let the study abroad content begin! I finished packing last night and managed to squeeze five months-worth of clothing into just a carry-on suitcase and my backpack. For those of you who don’t know, I will be studying abroad at the University of Glasgow in Scotland for the upcoming semester, from January to May. My long-time followers know what a saga it has been to get to this point… I originally started the study abroad process in 2019 and was supposed to go to Scotland in the fall of 2020. Obviously, Covid had different plans. A few re-applications and a whole lotta disappointment later, it looks like this dream will finally come true! I, of course, won’t fully believe it until I’m kissing the Scottish ground, but I otherwise have my plane tickets booked, housing contract signed, and bags packed. Glasgow, here I come!
