Do you overpack for trips? Just throw it all in the bag? Complete outfits for each day with the shoes that match? Do you worry if you have packed enough or have forgotten anything? What about the weight of your bag? Do you pay for overages? Scroll down to see the steps I take to be #TeamCarryon and can fit 5 days and 4 nights with accessories and shoes into my tiny luggage. You’ll see what is suggested and what I do to tweak it!

Research and Plan

Before you pack, find out the weather forecast during your visit and google the scenery of the spots/excursions you would like to visit. This will help you determine the type of clothes, fabric, and colors you will pack.

If it’s cold then you need a sweater/jacket. If it’s hot then light cotton.  If your pictures will be in spots that are dark or dull then you need vibrant colors to make your pictures pop. If you will be in a vibrant area, then you need some neutrals for your to stand out in your pictures.
