I've been traveling a lot over the past year, and this is what I won't leave home without... from cruise ships to tropical resorts to chilly Alaska ports, these are always in my bag -
1. A backpack that holds everything I need and still fits under the seat of the plane. This one is Vera Bradley Evening Garden print, and I love that it coordinates with my Autumn colors.
2. Comfortable sneakers in my color palette - I wear them on the plane and to the gym, and usually in between too! These orange and saffron Hoka Clifton 8s have been my favorites recently.
3. A matching set that works with sneakers or sandals - perfect for mixing and matching. This color is "beige" aka Lizard Gray for Autumns and I also have the red which is True Red. Some colors are on super discount for Prime Days. I had the neckline altered to work best for me.
4. An oversized wrap / scarf/ pashmina - I found this one at a boutique last year, it's Powder brand from the UK. I've used it as a blanket, as a wrap with a sleeveless dress, and as a pop of color with my neutral set and colorful sneakers.
5. My owala water bottle - It's leakproof in my bag and take it empty through TSA then fill it up everywhere I go. And I love adding a sticker from each new destination!
6. My daily supplements - a small scoop of preworkout with creatine helps me get going since I don't drink coffee, Redmond Re-lyte to keep me hydrated, Vitamin C to keep my immunity up, and a scoop of fiber since I'm often eating less nutrient dense foods on the go.
7. My personalized House of Colour cosmetics - tinted sunscreen, cream blush, and my three points of red butter balms are the bare minimum for me!
Most of these items are older! Once I find something I love I add it to the packing list and my suitcase looks similar for every trip. I've linked what's still available in stories and highlights.
I'd love to help you pack for your next trip! Message me to let me know what you need!
