You've got your city break booked - tickets to the latest exhibition, a room in the chicest boutique hotel and God Bless budget airlines for getting you there, but they're forcing you to pack lightly. 

A capsule wardrobe sounds painfully serious - so instead think of it as your edited holiday wardrobe. To get the most outfits out of the items that you pack, separates will always work well, but a few clever dual-purpose products (see the Victoria Beckham tote / handbag) and some clever styling and you'll have the chicest collection of holiday outfits to wear.

See the gallery for ten great looks that will all fit into your Globetrotter suitcase.
