If you’re always on the go and always boarding a plane, you’d know that organization is key. After traveling so many times, you eventually become a master of packing light and being efficient. Less is certainly more, and with airlines having different pound limits for bags and different fees for checked luggage, we choose to keep it cute and minimize it to a simple carry-on and tote combination. How do we fit everything in a carry-on? It’s quite easy; check out our IT Girl Travel Kit for your essential traveling needs. (All items can be purchased on Amazon!)
Packing Cubes
This is the easiest way to pack your clothes as well as coordinate your outfits. This is also an efficient way to save space in your suitcase. They come in various sizes and can fit a lot, depending on what is needed. (Outfits and/or shoes!)
Perfume Atomizer
An IT Girl loves to smell good, but we are not traveling with our full-sized perfume bottles, are we? Mini refillable perfume atomizers are the way to go! This allows you to take as many scents as you need and not risk your luggage being overweight with a full glass perfume bottle.
Sunglass Organizer Case
Accessories are essential, and we don’t wear the same accessories for every outfit. Sunglass organizer cases are a true gem; they allow you to pack up to 5 shades in a compact box that doesn’t take up much space.
Jewelry Organizer
This goes hand in hand with the sunglasses organizer. Take a mini version of a jewelry box with you on the go. They come with compartments so that your jewelry is organized, not cluttered, and you’re not mixing metals in one bag.
Toiletry Bag
Besides your clothes, what else is essential to bring? Your skincare, makeup, and feminine products all have to come with you. Toiletry bags come with several compartments that can actually be hung for better access.
Luggage Strap
If you’re one that zooms through the airport, you’d know how annoying it is for your purse to constantly fall off your shoulder. A luggage strap allows you to secure your purse directly on top of your bag to move swiftly. If you’re like me, your essentials (passport/phone/boarding passes) are in an accessible part of your bag that you can reach easily, or you have a mini bag over your body directly in front of you that can be easily reached as well.
All of these travel packing hacks allow you to travel smarter, not harder. We love efficiency! What are some of your packing gems when you’re on the go?
