Bags & Luggage
I’ll be taking this on a trip to Italy, and I am so excited to have everything in one bag! While large, this fits everything I’ll need for 10 days in Italy - from shoes to skincare! I used packing cubes just to keep everything more secure during trav...
Cotopaxi | Allpa 42L Travel Pack
I love this pack! While I am leaving this behind (tentatively), I really like it as a personal item alternative! I decided to take a larger tote as a personal item, simply because it has more room to store plane & travel items - book, extra water...
Cotopaxi | Todo 8L Sling
I’ll be using this as my personal item, and as an option take along during a boat trip (it’s waterproof!). I think this will more easily fit items such a book, extra water bottle, sleeping mask & personal items needed on the plane, headphones, et...
Open Story | Daypack Packing Tote Bag
I have an older version of this packing set and love them! They allow me to fit so much more in my luggage, as well as keep things organized! Highly recommend packing cubes of any kind, but these have worked well for me!
Veken | Packing Cubes, Set of 6
We bought two of these for a previous trip, so we are excited to be able to use these again! The anti-theft locks make you feel a little more secure against pick-pocketers, however I wouldn't rely on that being fool-proof. These are comfortable and a...
Travelon | Anti-Theft Active Waist Pack
Amazon | Mesh Tote Bag
Open Story | Daypack Packing Tote Bag
Tech
These were recommended to me by a friend and I am so glad I got them! I did not intend to buy them for travel purposes, but now tha tI have them, I will absolutely be bringing them with me for the plane!
JBL | Tune 510BT - Bluetooth Headphones
We bought this for our upcoming trip, but I actually used it at a bachelorette party a few weeks ago and it was incredible! The girls in my room were very grateful for the extra noise while trying to sleep! It has a variety of sounds, and the sound i...
Portable Travel Sound Machine
This portable charger had great reviews, so my husband snagged us this to take on our trip with us! It will charge your phone up to 3 times before the bank needs to be charged! Can't beat that!
INIU | Portable Charger
We bought this for our trip to Italy, but I like that it comes with many different travel adapters so that we'll be covered no matter what!
DOACE | 220V to 110V Converter for European Travel
Clothing
My husband bought this raincoat for our upcoming trip, and what's especially nice is that it packs away into a little pouch so it's super convenient for travelling!
UIQUR | Mens Rain Jacket
I have very similar pants to these (in Navy) and I love them for travel! They're slightly more elevated than wearing leggings, but still comfortable enough for long plane rides!
Athleta | Brooklyn Mid Rise Ankle Pant
I love traveling in this sweater – it's comfortable and chic! I like looking slightly nicer when traveling, while remaining comfortable at all times, so I like that this compliments the Athelta pants nicely!
Gap | 100% Cotton Oversized Sweater
Beauty & Skincare
I snagged these for our upcoming trip overseas just in case we needed to do any laundry in the sink/shower – in lieu of a washing machine! I like that they come in small, individual packs so you can just tear one open and go! Plus, no need to worry a...
Tide | Travel Sink Packets
I bought this mini first-aid kit to take with us to Italy just in case! While I don't think we'll need that many bandaids, it's still a great thing to keep on us while travelling – simply to avoid having to run out if one of us gets a minor scrape. I...
Band-Aid Travel Ready Portable First Aid Kit
I bought these for our upcoming trip to Italy and I am so happy I did! Not only is the carrying case a little more sturdy (so I could stuff it full) but I like that the bottles are pliable plastic which will make cleaning them out super easy, so I ca...
Mrsdry | 16 Pack Travel Bottles Set
Honestly, I don't go anywhere without aquaphor! It's a great thing to always have in your bag because it has SO many purposes! It can be used for cuts, scrapes, burns, and/or blisters but also as makeup, lipgloss, mascara, moisturizer, etc. I love ke...
Aquaphor | Healing Balm Stick
This is stashed down in my bag, ready for use! I am not typically one to use a sleeping mask, but for $5 I figured it can at least give me a little refief when trying to get some shut-eye on a 9+ hour flight!
Open Story | Light Blocking Sleep Mask
OLLY | 3mg Melatonin Sleep Gummies
I love this travel-sized option of the LRP moisturizer!
La Roche Posay | Toleriane Double Repair Face Moisturizer - Travel Size
I am a DIY manicure girl so I always stay prepared with nail polish remover (and nail polish) while I travel! I love these travel packs because I don't need to worry about getting nail polish remover wherever I go! I can throw 1-2 of these in my bag ...
up&up | Nail Polish Remover Pads
Playlists
One of my favorite playlists on Apple Music! I throw this on while I'm working, cleaning, or just if I want something vibey to play in the background.
Apple Music | Evergreen Playlist
A great Lofi playlist! This is another one I love to work to, but if you need something ambient for the background while reading or working on a plane/airport, this would be an awesome one to put on.
