We took this trip back in mid-June which is a favorite time to visit Colorado of ours. It’s generally cool but can get hot fast in the sun. This Instagram outfit round up post did so well I decided it was only obvious I dedicate a post solely about what I wore.

Summer dressing in Aspen looks a lot different than it does during ski season. While the days are warm and sunny, the mornings and evenings cool off quickly, so layers are key. I always make room in my suitcase for a lightweight sweater or jacket that I can throw on once the temperature drops.

These are the pieces I packed, the outfits I actually wore, and the items I’d recommend bringing if you’re heading to Aspen this summer. Everything is linked below so you can shop the looks, too.

  1. A good pair of denim you’ll wear with everything.

  2. A classic belt to finish any outfit.

  3. The necklace that matches everything.

  4. Cowboy boots are essential no matter the season.

  5. A suede bag I’m always reaching for.

  6. A breezy dress that can work in the daytime or with a jacket at night.

  7. A versatile bandana to style multiple ways.

  8. An oversized jacket easy for layering.

  9. A matching athletic set for hikes or walks to the park.

  10. Sneakers for all of your outdoor activities.

  11. A cowboy hat is an Aspen staple.

  12. A classic button down you’ll be glad you packed.

  13. Sunglasses are a must at this altitude.

  14. A pair of easy, everyday shorts.

  15. A pair of flats that go from town to dinner.

  16. A statement jacket that elevates any outfit.

  17. Lightweight pants you’ll want to wear 24/7.

  18. A beaded necklace to elevate the basics.

  19. The pair of white denim I’ve been wearing on repeat.

  20. A travel tote that holds literally everything.

If you care to shop all in one place and skip ahead the play by play here ya go. All linked here for you in this collection + other Aspen outfit inspo ideas.

Whether you're spending the weekend in Aspen or planning a longer stay, I hope this gives you a little inspiration for what to pack. Summer style in the mountains is all about versatile pieces you can mix, match, and layer throughout the day.

You can always find all of my looks from vacations I post on my ShopMy here under IG tab. And you can shop the full Aspen edit I created for inspo on what to pack for your next trip there here!
