Travelling is a life experience that helps you unwind from the stressful day to day tussle. In most instances, it hands you fresh memories that you will carry with you over seasons to come. Whether you’re headed for the mountains, the beach or just the next town for a staycation, pack like a pro by using this list.
- Duffel Bag or Suitcase
Depending on where you’re headed, one of the most important things you need to bring is your suitcase. If you’re off for a weekend adventure, go for a backpack or an overnighter duffel bag. If your trip is a week or longer, think about getting a rolling suitcase and just bringing a smaller carry on.
2. Colourful accessories
There is no harm in spicing your vacation outfits. Bringing colourful accessories like a stylish coco scarf, 3 in 1 necklace and playful sunglasses will let your personality shine through.
3. Toiletries/Makeup Bag
You’re going to want a container to keep your toothbrush, toothpaste, lotion, sunscreen, body wash and perfume organised. If they’re in their own bag, you won’t risk them spilling liquid onto your clothes!
4. Neutral Coloured Bras
To travel as light as possible, try to bring undergarments that can be worn under anything. A skin-tone bra can go seamlessly underneath shirts of any colour, whereas a hot pink one can definitely not! You can never go wrong with a black bra.
5. Extra Underwear
If you overpack anything, let it be underwear! You can’t go wrong with extra pairs of underwear in your suitcase pocket. You’ll be thankful of the fresh pairs when it pours generously and you can’t air the washed ones!
6. Clutch
You’ll want somewhere to store your souvenir money, tickets and other sentimental items that you collect during your trip. A leather clutch will give you the extra sophistication and efficiency you need on the go.
