3 Essential Last-Minute Packing Tips
Checking a bag is such a hassle these days, and unless you’re taking a long international trip, carrying on is the way to go.
So if you only want to bring a carry-on, and need to pack a lot of stuff in a small bag, follow these tips
The roller suitcase
Before you pack your belongings, lay out all of the items one-by-one. Once you have them sorted, group them into outfits so that you can see your options and get a feel for your trip.
The hand luggage
Pack toiletries in clutches so you have purse options. Be sure to pack a pair of shoes to slip into when you arrive, and if you pack books, make sure they are paperback.

Travel outfit

Wear two jackets, so you have layers for warmth, jacket options to wear, and extra room in your roller. Wear your chunkiest shoes, so you don’t have to pack them.
And finally, bring a neck scarf that you can wear as an eye mask if you want to catch some zzz’s.
