Slay in the Snow: Your Stylish Ski Resort Packing List
Hey there, snow queens! Ready to carve up the slopes in style and sip hot cocoa by the fire? Whether you’re a seasoned ski bunny or a first-timer, nailing your packing game is key to a fabulous ski resort adventure. So grab your gear and let’s hit the mountain in style!
What to Wear on the Slopes
Layers: Base layers are like your ski outfit’s secret weapon. Opt for thermal underwear that’s not only cozy but also wicks away moisture faster than a downhill racer. Bonus points if they’re cute enough to wear après-ski too!
Keep warm: Your ski jacket and pants should be both waterproof and windproof. But think runway meets slopes – flattering cuts and vibrant colors are a must, no boring ski bunnies here. Oh, and don’t forget the accessories: scarves, beanies, and gloves with faux fur and metallic bling.
Cozy socks: Your feet deserve some love too, especially after a day of activity! Pack stylish ski socks in fun patterns. Trust us, your toes will thank you!
Gear Up, Gorgeous
Skis/Board: If you’ve got your own skis or snowboard, pack ’em up like they’re precious cargo (because they are). And why settle for basic gear? Invest in skis or a board with designs that scream “I’m fabulous!” – with so many designs to choose from, you never have to sacrifice fashion for function.
Boots: Sleek ski boots or snowboard boots are non-negotiable. No internet shopping will do here – find a good sporting goods store. You’ll need to try them on to make sure to find a proper fit!
Goggles: When it comes to eye protection, you don’t have to settle for boring eyewear, but some sort of goggles are an absolute must. Glamorous ski goggles are where it’s at – oversized frames, tinted lenses, whatever suits your style.
Après-Ski Glam
The slopes are conquered, and now it’s time to slay off-piste! Chic sweaters, leggings, and fur-lined boots are your go-tos for the perfect post-ski look. When you’re chilling by the fire, plush robes and cashmere blankets are your BFFs. And fuzzy slippers? Yes, please!
Stay Beautiful
Make sure to look after your skin – all that sun and wind can do a number on your gorgeous face! Moisturizing skin care is your secret weapon against wind burn and dryness. Think hydrating face masks, nourishing lip balms, and body lotions that keep you feeling smooth and nourished. And sunscreen? Non-negotiable. Glow up your face with waterproof mascara, long-lasting lipsticks, and highlighters that say, “I’m glowing, even in sub-zero temps.” And when you’re back in your cozy hotel room, treat yourself to spa vibes with bath bombs, face masks, and essential oils.
Be Prepared, Babe!
You never know when a mishap can rear its ugly head – whether it’s something merely annoying like a hangnail or something more serious like a fall on a patch of ice. Pack the essentials in a first-aid kit to cover the basics so you don’t have to miss a minute of the fun trying to hunt down a shop to stock up on bandaids.
Swimsuit (Yes, You Read That Right)
A bikini on a ski trip? No, we aren’t talking about some sort of dare – chances are, your resort will have a pool and spa, so bring your swimsuit and flip-flops! Trust us, nothing feels more delicious and decadent after a day on the slopes then sitting in the hot tub.
So, ski bunnies and snow queens alike, are you ready to slay on the slopes? Keep this guide handy when you’re planning your next skiing vacay and make sure you show up ready to rock! (And if you need help planning your next ski trip, get in touch and let’s make it happen!)
