Travel Essentials
Backpack with Laptop pocket
A roomy backpack with a pocket to slide your laptop into is GREAT for travel! With both a place to keep your laptop safe and side pockets for your water bottle, this under $50 Target backpack find is the perfect pick!
PACKING CUBES
This 5 piece set of packing cubes is essential for keeping my everything super organized in my suitcase. They all come in different sizes – 4 packing cubes and a water-resistant pouch which is great for toiletries! Available at Nordstrom and comes in 3 other colors!
COSMETIC CASE
This water resistant large makeup bag is an absolute travel must have! It’s sizable enough to hold full-sized cosmetics, lotions, skincare products and more. Another great feature is the double side open design which can keep bottles upright. Oh, and it’s under $30!
Bag TAG
Lost luggage or luggage theft is everyone’s biggest fear when traveling. The best reason to always travel with a bag tag is to easily identify what’s yours! I love this vegan leather one from Stony Clover Lane. Tt’s customizable so you can add your design!
White noise maker
A great way to be comfortable while you’re on vacation is to make wherever you’re staying feel like home. Ever since I purchased my white noise maker, I haven’t slept a night without it. It’s calming, noise-cancelling, and creates a soothing environment to sleep well no matter where I am. 10/10 recommend!
hydrating duo
Traveling (especially air travel) can wreak havoc on skin moisture. That’s why I recommend traveling with super hydrating skincare products to apply before, during, and after (as needed!) This Kopari Vacation Duo Kit comes with 2 moisturizers. One is the Organic Coconut Melt – a coconut oil formula that leaves skin instantly more hydrated and glowing. The other is the Tropical Coconut Melt which can be used as a body moisturizer, hair mask, and dry shave oil!
PORTABLE CHARGER
Another one of everyone’s biggest travel fears…your phone is dead! Whether you need it for entertainment, work, directions, etc…during your travels is the worst time for it to die! If you don’t own a portable charger, definitely grab this! It’s a $30 Amazon find and a great size to toss into your purse!
