What I Wore on a Northern European Luxury Cruise

ICYMI… we just got back from out amazing 12-day trip through Northern Europe (Sweden, Norway, Germany and Denmark) with Regent Seven Seas Cruises. I previously shared what I wore in Northern Europe for an early summer cruise that we took with Regent in 2024, which is still a great reference for what to wear. However, today I’m sharing what I wore on my recent late summer/early fall cruise, which can look slightly different. These looks are not only great if you’re traveling to Northern Europe, but they’re also perfect for a fall wardrobe refresh. You will notice a lot of mixing and matching. This is key for packing for a longer cruise. Use this as a guide to pack efficiently and you’ll get the most out of your wardrobe. And don’t worry, I’ll cover the full trip itinerary and all the details next week, so stay tuned!

What to Wear When Traveling: Chic & Comfortable Outfit Ideas

We all want to be comfortable when traveling, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style! Whether you’re catching a flight, heading out on a road trip, or simply have a long day on the go, the right pieces can keep you comfortable while still looking put together. MERSEA always has the best combinations of easy and comfortable travel looks that are always chic. I’ve shared my love for MERSEA before, so I always love sharing new travel favorites from them. Today let’s look at some pieces that you will wear not only for traveling, but all season long.

MERSEA – Built For Easy Travel Style

One of my favorite travel brands is MERSEA so when I was invited to celebrate their first store opening in Kansas City, I immediately said YES! They are my go-to for versatile, comfortable, and cute travel styles. It will instantly transport you to your favorite destination and have you ready to send a postcard home. BONUS: Actress Selma Blair was in attendance. Check out my favorite finds!

For reference, it was in the low 70’s during the day with full sunshine. At night it would drop to the mid 40’s. Layering is key for this climate.
