Traveling is always exciting but sometimes packing can be stressful, especially when you don’t know what to bring. I feel like its always better to be prepared than to forget something important. Here are 10 things I think everyone should bring when going on a trip!

1. Comfy Clothes 🎀

First things first, ALWAYS bring comfortable clothes! I personally love wearing a cute zip-up sweater with a shirt underneath just in case it gets cold on the plane. And if it gets too hot you can always take the sweater off. I would also recommend some comfy sweats because who wants to be sitting on a plane for hours wearing something uncomfortable? Not me!

2. Skincare Essentials 🧴

Skincare is definitely a must for me! Especially when traveling because your skin can get super dry. I always think it’s important to keep up with your skincare routine even when you’re away from home. Some things I would bring are lip balm, moisturizer, lotion and of course my favorite skincare products. Nobody wants dry and cracked lips while they’re on vacation!

3. Makeup Essentials 💄

Okay this one is probably one of my favorites because I LOVE makeup! I don’t think I could go on a trip without bringing at least some of my favorite products. I would definitely pack my foundation, concealer, powder, mascara and a cute lip combo. I also think bringing mini versions of your makeup is such a good idea because they take up less space and you can still do your makeup wherever you go!

4. Phone Charger or Portable Battery 🔋💗

Girls, please don’t forget your chargers! This is honestly one of the most important things you can bring. Imagine being at the airport and your phone dies when you need your boarding pass or directions. I would definitely recommend bringing a portable charger too because you never know when you’re going to need it. Plus you need your phone charged to take all those cute vacation pictures!

5. Comfortable Shoes 👟💕

I cannot stress this enough, bring comfortable shoes! Especially if you’re going somewhere where you’re going to be walking around a lot. Airports are already stressful enough and the last thing you want is your feet hurting. I would personally bring some cute sneakers that match with different outfits but are also comfortable enough to wear all day.

6. Hygiene Products 🫧🎀

This is something you should definitely double-check before leaving! I would pack things like deodorant, toothpaste, a toothbrush, body wash, pads and any other personal hygiene products you use. I think it’s always better to have everything ready instead of having to go shopping for something you forgot. Plus feeling fresh and clean while traveling is always a must!

7. Headphones 🎧💗

I feel like headphones are such an essential when traveling. Sometimes you just want to put your headphones on, listen to your favorite music and relax. Especially when you’re on a long flight or car ride. I personally love listening to music because it makes the time go by faster and makes the trip feel a little more exciting.

8. A Cute Little Bag 👜🎀

I would definitely recommend bringing a cute little purse or crossbody bag to keep your important things in. You can put your phone, wallet, lip gloss, ID and other little essentials inside. I think this makes everything so much easier because you don’t have to keep digging through your luggage every time you need something. And of course it’s always nice when your bag matches your outfit.

9. Your Favorite Snacks 🍓💕

Snacks are honestly a must especially if you’re going on a long trip! You never know when you’re going to get hungry and sometimes airport food can be so expensive. I would bring some of my favorite little snacks so I have something to munch on whenever I get hungry. It’s also nice knowing you already have something with you instead of having to worry about buying food.

10. Important Documents ✈️💌

Last but definitely not least, DON’T forget your important documents! Make sure you have your ID, passport if you’re traveling internationally, boarding passes and any reservations you might need. I would also recommend downloading your airline’s app so you can check your flight times and see if there are any delays. I feel like having everything organized ahead of time makes traveling so much less stressful.
