Packing for Your Travels with ease
Steps for Travel Packing
Preparing for any trip can be an exciting but stressful experience, and packing your outfits can seem like an overwhelming task. However, if you follow these simple steps for travel packing, you can ensure a stress-free trip.
1. Make a packing list:
Grab a piece of paper. Write down each day you are traveling along with the activities for that day and the weather. This helps you to know what kind of clothes you need for that day. I also bring that paper along with me so I can keep myself organized. It’s amazing what you think you forget…and then you do. Notes are important.
2. Plan out your clothes:
Here is a quick guide on how much to pack for the amount of days you will be traveling.
3. Try on your outfits
I like to try on each outfit so I know what works best for that outfit: shoes, jewelry, all those necessary undergarments. I can’t tell you how many times I had to run to Target because I forgot that certain bra or spanx. You know what I’m talking about. This process has saved me time and I know when I put the outfit on - I have everything I need. I personally like to take a selfie so I have the pictures in my photos to look at when I’m getting ready.
4. Add jewelry & shoes:
Adding jewelry and shoes happens when I’m trying on the clothes but when I have everything laying out I like to modify my shoes and jewelry so that one pair will go with multiple outfits. That way I’m packing less.
5. Traveling day outfit
I make my traveling day outfit comfortable with a little style. If I wear an outfit that is too casual or sloppy - it makes me feel blah and not my best.
The outfit I wear to my destination is the same outfit I wear home. That’s one less outfit to pack and it’s ready to go.
Here’s an example of a travel day outfit:
Traveling should be fun!
I hope you try following these steps, you'll be able to pack your luggage efficiently, allowing you to focus on enjoying your journey to the fullest.
