My May Paris Packing List<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wish I could say I was more organized for my latest trip to Paris and planned this post before I left. This post will highlight my May Paris packing list and share what I wore and skipped. I say that because I could easily pack in a carry-on for five nights and still had a few pieces left unworn. Due to the shift in weather, I wish I had packed one or two more sweaters. Chicago has still been colder, and I was looking forward to the warmer weather in Paris. As often as I have packed for a trip to Paris, I never get it right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My bags are unpacked, laundry is clean, dry cleaning is completed, and life is as usual. Well, somewhat normal. I have been wrapping up the end of my first book, Paris Every Day<\/a><\/strong>, and my full attention has been on answering emails and getting edits to my team. Every day brings something new, a chapter to revise, photos to add, and we are so close to sending the whole book to the printer. Do you have your presale order in<\/a><\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before I leave for a trip, I will share a Paris agenda. That is coming soon, hopefully next week. I will share a recap of what I did, where I stayed, a few favorite discoveries, and restaurants. My trip was short but so full, and I loved every crazy minute of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paris in May: What to Pack <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to Paris, I always leave wanting more and something to cross off my list for my next visit. You may have seen glimpses of my days on Instagram or Substack. The weather before my arrival was hot, summer temperatures. Of course, as my luck would have it, the weather transitioned the day I arrived. It felt like summer, and the energy was high when my feet touched down in Paris. Just a few hours later, Paris was hit with a storm front bringing hail, and the temperatures dropped significantly. I didn’t mind the temperature shift and embraced the mild spring weather. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My husband jokes that all you need is a passport and a credit card, and you can always figure it out once you land. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What I Packed for Paris in May <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Margaux<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Comfortable walking shoes <\/a><\/strong>are a must! I wore my Vejas on the plane and occasionally changed into my Margaux flats<\/a><\/strong>. I swear by them; they have been to Paris many times since I bought them five years ago. <\/p>\n\n\n
