WeTwo Guide: How to Pack Smart for an International Ski Trip to Cheval Blanc or Matakauri Lodge
Planning an international ski trip is all about balancing adventure with effortless luxury—and let’s be real, ski resort shops charge a small fortune for last-minute gear and fashion. Instead of overspending at high-end resort boutiques, plan ahead and pack smart with stylish, cozy, and functional pieces that look amazing without breaking the bank. From chic slope-ready outfits to après-ski coziness, this guide will help you pack everything you need from WeTwo.love and HomeandFashion.Love—so you arrive looking fabulous, prepared, and totally stress-free.
🌍 Step 1: Know Your Destination – Cheval Blanc vs. Matakauri Lodge
Whether you’re heading to Cheval Blanc in Courchevel, France for a glamorous alpine escape or Matakauri Lodge in Queenstown, New Zealand for a rugged-luxury retreat, each destination has a different vibe—but the essentials stay the same!
• Cheval Blanc, Courchevel: Parisian elegance meets alpine chic. Think cashmere layers, tailored ski wear, and cozy après-ski outfits for sipping vin chaud by the fire.
• Matakauri Lodge, Queenstown: More adventure-driven, but still sophisticated. Expect earthy tones, relaxed yet polished outfits, and functional layers that transition seamlessly from slopes to lodge.
Wherever you’re going, packing in advance = saving big. Let’s dive into the must-haves from our stores!
