Everything On My Packing List For My First Long Weekend This Fall

Later this month, I'm spending a few days in Paris for a long weekend, so I'm already planning out my packing list. I'm based in NYC and my current wardrobe revolves heavily around transitional staples like straight-leg jeans, sneakers, and button-downs. I'm planning to pack many of my go-to basics, but will also be adding in more layering pieces that are primed for the true fall weather.
Ahead, I'm highlighting some of the pieces I'm eyeing to add to my suitcase. I've included some pieces straight from my closet, including versatile cashmere sweaters, leather jackets, sunglasses, and jewelry. I've also included some new finds that are currently sitting in my cart that I'm considering investing in—everything from quarter-zip knits and checked shirts. Here, shop the pieces in my fall long weekend packing list that are inspiring what I add to my suitcase in the coming month.
