Ready to jet set and live your best life? Well, you better believe that your travel game needs to be on point. Let’s dive into my travel packing guide — because we’re about to tackle those adventures like the unstoppable mom bosses we are!
Ultimate travel packing guide
- Passport power: Grab that passport and make it a statement piece. Own it, darling — this is your ticket to a life well-traveled.
- Cash confidence: Currency, credit cards, and a stylish wallet to match. Make sure your credit cards do not charge international fees and help you earn travel rewards. Financial freedom never looked so good.
- Fashion finds: Plan those outfits like you’re strutting the runway. Weather-ready, Instagram-worthy, and confidence is your best accessory. Make sure not to overpack and select outfits that you can mix and match. I always use Amazon Basics Packing Cubes. When your clothes are dirty, transition them to a cube to keep your clean clothes separate. I also put a small cube in my backpack with a change of clothes — cause who doesn’t like to freshen up when they arrive?
- Toiletry triumph: Mini-sized glam squad essentials — shampoo, conditioner, and the holy grail skincare. If you use liquid foundation, I highly recommend travel containers. Remember your beauty routine doesn’t take a vacation. I cannot live without Kitsch Bar Shampoo and Conditioner or Morfone TSA Approved Silicon Travel Containers.
- Sleeping beauty: Neck pillow, blanket, sleep mask, and chic accessories. We’re not just traveling; we’re jet-setting in style. The Vera Bradley Travel Blanket is my go-to blanket/pillow for when I am on the airplane. It even has a Trolley Sleeve, or you can attach a carabiner (mom hook) to your backpack.
- Gadget glam: Charge it up! Phone, camera, headphones — because your life deserves a killer soundtrack. More than anything, do not forget a Universal Adapter! This is my favorite universal adapter, EPICKA Universal Travel Adapter and it comes in a soft case. Throw it in your backpack and you are always prepared!
- Bag bliss: Find a bag that screams “I’m here for a good time!” Functionality meets fashion, darling. I personally take a large backpack, LOVEVOOK Backpack as it has large compartments and a place for your water bottle. when I am going out on tours or for the night out, I love this Lululemon dupe Amazon belt bag.
- Safety chic: Band-Aids, Advil, Benadryl tablets, Doterra Correct-X (Neosporin), OFF! Botanicals Repellent, Calendula Insect Bite Gel, Sunscreen, Hand Sanitizer, Baby Wipes, and a fierce attitude. Safety is sexy, and we’re owning it. Don’t forget sunglasses! We always need to protect our eyes in fashion!
- Entertainment extravaganza: Books, journals, maybe a podcast or two — because you’re a momma who loves to fuel her brain! If you are lacking space, invest in a Kindle or E-Reader.
- Snack slay: Energize your adventures with snacks that match your energy. Reusable water bottle, healthy nibbles, and Liquid IV Hydration — a true glow-up move.
This isn’t just packing; it’s a declaration of intent. Own your journey, embrace the unknown, and remember — you’re not just traveling; you’re stepping into a life that’s worth celebrating. Go out there and conquer, queen!
