Packing can be quite the struggle. If you’re anything like me, overpacking is your best friend. Over the years, I have mastered the art of packing efficiently and successfully. I have picked up a few tricks for saving space in your suitcase for extra items as well. Make sure to check out some of my personal packing tips below! Say goodbye to stressful packing and get excited for your next vacation! Happy packing!
1. Pack Lightly
The best way to pack efficiently is to pack lightly. When packing lightly you are able to have a smooth trip without the worry of your suitcase popping open or being overweight. Packing lightly allows you to travel with ease. Many hotels have limited closet space, the lighter you pack the easier your trip will be, guaranteed!
2. Pack Basics
When packing, make an effort to pack basics. Pack solid colors with limited patterns. Basics allow you to make multiple outfits out of a few items. Pair a simple tee-shirt or tank top with a pair of shorts, pants, etc. and you have multiple outfits out of one piece.
3. Shoe Storage
In order to save space in your suitcase for extra items, store items in your shoes. Shoes take up a decent amount of space in your suitcase. Save some space by loading your shoes with socks, underwear, or thin tops or tank tops. Shoes make for great toiletry storage as well.
4. Roll Clothes
Folding clothes can quickly take up a lot of space in your suitcase, which makes it difficult to pack everything you have on your list. In order to save space within your suitcase, try rolling some of your clothes rather than folding them flat. Rolling clothes allows you to utilize the small corners and crevices within your suitcase, which allows you to pack a few more items.
