Hi Friends!
We recently got back from spending 7ish, almost 8 days in Paris with my family and somehow I had a bit of an easier time packing for a trip to Paris than I did when we were packing for Japan back in April! I actually found that packing for Paris in the summer to be pretty straightforward—but still important to plan well so I wanted to share what I brought! Paris in the summer is typically warm and sunny, even hot honestly, with the occasional breeze or quick rain shower, so packing smart can make a big difference. When we were there it seems like we did it all so whether you're sipping espresso at a sidewalk café, exploring museums, or wandering along the Seine at golden hour, I probably have an outfit idea for you while you are packing! I wanted this blog post to be written in a way that makes your packing experience easy and you sort of know what you need going into the process. Also keeping in mind that I packed and dressed with comfort and practicality in mind, I am not one to dress up a ton on a trip so this packing list will be much more casual than probably most other Paris packing lists you might find on Pinterest!
Happy reading!
WEATHER IN PARIS
When we were in Paris it was the second and third weeks of June and weather was a little bit warmer than what we had anticipated. The daily average was about 78-85 degrees as the highs each day that we were there. There were times when it got a little bit chilly at night but I never actually needed to wear the jean jacket that I had brought. It should also be important to note that MOST places in Paris didn’t have air conditioner. Your hotel might have it but our Airbnb definitely did not. This was really only unconfortable for a couple of the nights we were there and we just slept with the fans on us. When you are searching for a place to stay in Paris you will notice that the places with air conditioning are much pricier than the places without. If you are visiting at any time from the end of June through the summer, you might want to budget in a hotel or Airbnb with air conditioning if the heat will get to you!
