Hi there! I hope you’re having a great week so far. I’m planning a visit to NC to visit my sister & I’m so excited! (I think when this post is published, I’ll already be there!) I can’t wait to see her new house, cuddle with my pup nephew, & have some sister time!
I’m flying on Frontier, which means I didn’t want to pay extra for a carry-on & will be packing in a personal item ONLY. This is the longest trip I’ve done this for (usually I only visit NC for 1-2 days!) so this might be challenging but I’m up for it! I’m leaving Friday & getting back Tuesday.
I’m someone who really enjoys planning a trip! I love gathering things I need & the excitement of packing my bag. While I’m no professional, I like to think I’ve found some good tips that help make things easier in my travels. Keep reading for my packing process!
1. Make a list of outfits! I plan out the outfits I want to wear each day that I’ll be at my destination, along with which shoes & accessories I want to pair with each one. Here’s what my list looks like so far for this trip!
Friday-pink t-shirt dress, white sneakers, denim jacket
Saturday-maxi skirt, white wrap top, white sneakers
Sunday-red & pink dress, sandals
Monday-chambray wrap dress, white sneakers
Tuesday-maxi skirt, graphic t-shirt
2. I go through my list & try on the outfits, making sure that everything fits & goes together.
3. Next, I write out the makeup, toiletries, & any other miscellaneous things I need to remember. I keep my makeup & hair products pretty simple to save space in my bag. If I forget anything or need anything, I can either borrow something from my sis or pop into Target! Here’s the makeup I’m bringing.
Makeup:
Mini glow screen
Rare foundation
Rare concealer
Rare blush
Ilia eyeshadow
Eyeliner (liquid & gel)
Mascara
2 lipstick options
I use packing cubes to keep everything organized & to squeeze as much as I can into the small space.
& that’s pretty much it! It’s my last day of my trip right now & I’ve used almost everything that I packed. I’m having the best time here & I’ll be sad to go home BUT I can’t wait to see my little family when I get back. I’ve missed them!
Have a great week,
Danielle
