What to Pack for Coastal Cities

What to Pack for Coastal Cities

There’s something magical about a coastal city: the salty air, the laid-back pace, the way your outfits just feel a little more relaxed (but still totally pulled together). Whether you’re heading to the charming streets of Porto or the quiet charm of Peggy’s Cove, here’s what we’re slipping into our carry-on:

The Cabri Reversible Cardigan

This one’s all about options. On one side: a stunning swirl print in sea-glass blues, purples, and greens. On the other: classic black. Lightweight enough for breezy mornings, polished enough for dinner by the harbour.

The Sousa Top in Dusk

Soft, flattering, and effortless — the Sousa is our go-to layer in a dreamy dusk shade. Pairs beautifully with just about everything.

The Aro Reversible Kick Flare Pant

From black to blue plaid in a flip — these pants are your secret weapon. The flattering kick flare silhouette gives just the right amount of shape. Pair them with the Sousa Top or Albi T-Shirt for daytime exploring, then add the swirl side of the Cabri Reversible Cardigan for dinner by the water.

The Halle Reversible Skirt

Sleek black on one side, playful mosaic on the other — this reversible skirt gives you two distinct looks in one lightweight, wrinkle-resistant piece. Pair it with the Sousa Top or Albi T-Shirt, sandals or sneakers, beachside or café.

Albi Sustainable T-Shirt - Helene Clarkson Design

The Albi Sustainable T-Shirt

This is your capsule MVP. A buttery soft essential that goes with everything — from the Halle to the Aro. Made from sustainable modal, it’s breathable, flattering, and the definition of easygoing polish.


Why We Love This Capsule

Several pieces in this lineup are reversible, travel-friendly, and designed by Helene — made in small batches right here in Toronto. You’ll get endless mix-and-match outfit combos without overpacking.
