Planning a trip to India and worried about what to pack? Here’s a few tips, after my third trip to the country ✈️
Unless you’re in a beach area like Goa, you’ll need to dress more modestly than you would in most other southeast Asian countries.
Long, floaty dresses are my go-to. They’re light enough for the heat but modest enough not to draw any attention. They’re also wonderful for a pretty photo 🫶🏻 Cute dresses that cover your shoulders are really helpful for temples.
Tank tops/vests and a long floaty skirt or light trousers was my preferred choice for travel days. I packed one white, one black and 2/3 coloured tanks and wore them with a mix of skirts & trousers.
If you’re travelling the length of the country, pack according the weather as temperatures can vary widely from north to south. I like to start in the coldest point, and finish in the warmest point. This means I can shed layers as I go along (you can donate clothes that you don’t need any longer!)
Don’t stress too...
