At Love Olive Co, we’ve put together the perfect modest capsule wardrobe for summer travel to help you pack efficiently while still staying stylish and comfortable.
A capsule wardrobe is all about versatile pieces that you can mix and match to create a variety of outfits with minimal items. This Memorial Day, leave behind overpacking and hello to a chic, modest wardrobe that works for every occasion—whether it’s a daytime outing, dinner with loved ones, or an evening stroll.
Here’s how to create a modest Memorial Day weekend travel wardrobe that’s light, functional, and totally fashionable.
A modest dress is the perfect one-and-done outfit for any vacation. It’s simple, stylish, and works for everything from a day out sightseeing to a special evening event. We love dresses that offer full coverage but still have a feminine silhouette and unique details.
Packing Tips:
Look for dresses with sleeves, whether short, three-quarter, or long, for maximum coverage.
Midi and maxi dresses are fantastic for adding length and modesty without sacrificing style.
Top Picks:
Floral Maxi Dress with a High Neck – Soft florals in a relaxed fit make this a great option for Memorial Day weekend. Add a denim jacket for a breezy evening look.
Tiered Midi Dress – This dress offers a modest cut with full coverage and the perfect flowy silhouette. Great for a casual brunch or evening outing.
When it comes to modest vacation outfits, tops that offer full coverage without feeling too heavy or hot are key. Opt for blouses with long sleeves, high-neck options, and breathable fabrics that keep you cool and covered.
Packing Tips:
Choose tops with natural, breathable fabrics like cotton and linen for maximum comfort.
Button-down shirts and blouses with a relaxed fit work well for layering or pairing with skirts, trousers, or shorts.

When you're packing for Memorial Day weekend, you want modest bottoms that are not only stylish but also comfortable for walking, sightseeing, and dining out. Opt for skirts and wide-leg trousers that offer full coverage and can easily be dressed up or down.
Packing Tips:
A-line skirts and culottes provide modest coverage while being light and breathable for warm weather.
For more structured options, high-waisted trousers are perfect for creating polished, modest looks.

While Memorial Day weekend is mostly warm, evenings can get a bit cooler, so it’s important to have layering pieces that provide extra coverage and warmth without compromising your modest style. Light jackets, and cardigans are perfect for adding an extra layer of coverage when needed.

Long cardigans or denim jackets are easy to throw on over any outfit.
