Hi beauties! I’m back from my mini vacation to New York City and wanted to share with you how I managed to travel with only a carry-on suitcase for a 5 day vacation. To avoid checking in luggage, I had to be well organized as to what I planned on bringing for my trip. I knew that I wanted to bring basics as they are an easy item to style but I didn’t know what else to bring. I found a template on how to pack for carry-on luggage on Pinterest (link here) and it was so helpful in suggesting items that I should consider bringing for my trip. I did not follow the template to a T; it was used simply as a guide.
If you plan on packing light for your next trip I’d highly suggest that you consider the following tips:
1. Get organized. Try and pre-plan your outfits in advance so you won’t have to worry about what you are going to wear.
a. The same concept applies to bringing toiletries, makeup and hair products. Bring only what you need and use the travel friendly containers.
2. Pack basics. Pack clothing items that are simple cuts and colours that can easily be mixed and matched together.
3. Bring accessories. Accessories add a bit of flare to any outfit.
