Forget packing woes with Seasalt Cornwall’s capsule wardrobe ideas that offer timeless designs and comfort
Inspired surroundings
Almost completely surrounded by sea, Cornwall’s picturesque beaches, rolling hills and harbourside villages make it an ideal destination for a relaxed summer getaway. At Seasalt Cornwall, we’re lucky to call this beautiful stretch of coastline our home. Its wild landscape and artistic heritage influence everything that we do, inspiring us to craft thoughtfully designed clothes made to be loved and lived in for seasons to come. Alongside some favourite travel ideas for your Cornish staycation, we’re sharing our guide to packing a suitably stylish capsule wardrobe of holiday-ready outfits
For relaxing close to home…
While on holiday, we think taking time to slow down and rest can be just as rewarding as sightseeing. Whether that’s with a great holiday read or a favourite magazine, you’ll want to make sure that you’ve packed a few comfy pieces for those quiet moments. Stylish ideas: We love the soft touch of our organic cotton Sailor stripes paired with jeans, worn with a relaxed pinafore dress, or layered under a textured linen tunic. And don’t forget a pair of comfy Bloomin’ Good Socks to complete the look
For strolling around harbourside towns…
Comfort is key for days spent exploring the cobbled streets of Cornwall’s picturesque towns. We love St Ives for its independent galleries and shops selling artisan crafts. When it’s time for a break, head to Yallah Coffee for a delicious locally roasted coffee with a sea view. Stylish ideas: A pair of leggings with an organic cotton tunic is our go-to. Plus the chic Breton stripes of our Sailor Tunic look great under a raincoat or a Pack It jacket in case the Cornish rain decides to make a sudden appearance. For sunnier days, a versatile dress, jumpsuit or midi skirt look great styled back with a simple T-shirt or jacket. Finish the look with a comfy pair of summer sandals or our cotton canvas Salt Trail Trainers for relaxed elegance
For exploring coastal gardens…
Chygurno gardens is a beautiful place to spend a sunny Cornish afternoon. Perched on the rocky cliffs above Lamorna Cove, its spectacular sea views are the perfect backdrop to a rainbow of blooming colour. Stylish ideas: Versatile and breathable jersey dresses are great when it comes to holiday packing. In a palette inspired by local flowers spotted on coast path walks, our hand-drawn floral prints look just as good worn on their own as they do with a light jacket - ideal for strolling through verdant Cornish gardens
For late lunches and alfresco dinners…
Our hometown of Falmouth is full of cafés and restaurants serving up local dishes but, for great views and a welcoming atmosphere, we recommend Gylly Beach Café. The restaurant sits directly on the beach with views across Falmouth Bay to Rosemullion Head on one side and Pendennis Castle on the other. Stylish ideas: Long, floaty dresses with elegant silhouettes and subtle details are a timeless favourite. We love the woven yarndyed checks of our Cloudscape Dress and the vintage-inspired spots on our Feather Slate Dress. Both pair well with a lightweight knit for cooler evenings spent dining al fresco
