If you’re like me, packing for vacation is a struggle since you normally want to bring your whole closet with you! (Curse you, baggage weight restrictions!)

To assist make the approach a small less complicated, I’ve put together a couple of outfits for you to attempt on vacation, wherever your summer time travels take you! I’ve also included a few packing guidelines to help you worry much less about packing and have enjoyable far more enjoyable on your trip. Bon voyage!

Packing Ideas

Initial, you want to make sure you pack a tiny purse or book bag for the plane. I always bring a tiny book bag and then put my purse inside that or in my suitcase so I have much more room for snacks and books. Here’s a list of items to put in your purse/book bag for the plane ride:

• iPod and Headphones
• Books, Kindle, Magazines
• 100 Calorie or other portioned snack packs – Excellent size for the plane!
• Journal and pens – doodle or write a list of issues you want to do on vacation
• Wallet with cash, ID, and so on. (Straightforward to find in your bag)
• Sunglasses
• Hand Lotion (Travel bottle)
• Small hand Sanitizer (Especially when on the plane… I use this religiously!)

Then, I bring a carry-on for the rest of my packing wants. Inside, I have a Modella case for my makeup and hair supplies. I got mine at WalMart and I really like it! It is soft (rather than tough plastic) and it fits nicely in my bag! Also, it is important to have a carry-on bag with wheels – trust me, you don’t want to carry a heavy duffel bag about enormous airports. Your back with thank you.

That’s just a small overview on what I like to take with me and how I like to pack.
