Picture this: a weekend escape to a warm European city - cobblestone streets, vibrant cafés, and balmy evenings that call for effortless style. So far so good... but what's this? A sweaty red-faced Englishman dragging his donkey of a full-size spinner case down a quaint narrow street. Paradise lost. Don't be that guy. The best weekend breaks are about spontaneity and ease, and central to that is packing light.

Our new cloth tote weekend bag is designed to carry everything you need for a few days of adventure, keeping things light, practical, and undeniably refined. With a curated selection of versatile garments, you can pack smart and step off the plane ready for anything, from a morning museum stroll to a late-night tapas run. The key to packing light is choosing pieces that work hard and play well together. Opt for clothing that transitions seamlessly from day to night, blending timeless cuts with breathable fabrics suited for warmer climes (that's where linen comes in). A weekend wardrobe should feel liberated yet polished - think relaxed tailoring, soft textures, and neutral tones that pair effortlessly. Every item should earn its place in the tote, offering comfort, durability, and the kind of understated elegance that defines Oliver Spencer’s ethos.
So where to start? A great place is a lightweight jacket - something unstructured for easy layering when the evening breeze kicks in. Pair it with a couple of versatile shirts or tees that can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. Trousers should strike a balance between tailored and relaxed, ideal for long days of exploring without sacrificing sharpness. A single pair of well-crafted shoes can carry you through the trip, while a few carefully chosen accessories - not least our new linen caps -add character without cluttering your bag. Stick to natural materials like cotton and linen to stay cool and composed.
