Traveling can entail some headaches and indecisions when its time to pack for a trip, especially around the holidays. We have a tendency to overpack, but often forget to pack our essentials. To make sure your trip is easy breezy, the first thing to keep in mind is luggage, so traveling with a black carry on is ideal and won’t get as dirty as lighter color luggage. Maintaining your passport and money in a safe place is important, which is why a creamy leather passport-currency wallet is an indispensable must-have to bring during your jet-setting adventures.

Staying connected is key while you are on the go, so make sure to have a small blue-tooth set to finish those last minute conversations, along with an 8 pin cable key chain to charge your phone. Adding a white tassel pom key chain to this will help with easy access in your oversized carryon bag. Also, make sure your smartphone has a cover to protect it from the bumps along the way with a cute catchy phrase on it! Let’s not forget your tablet, so you can watch or read whatever you desire during your flight with a tri-fold flip case to ensure your hands are free. Bringing a universal 6000mah Vinsic external battery pack is essential for all your electronic devices.

If you want to travel in style, a funky straw fedora and cat-eye sunglasses is all you need for your stylish, low-key look to hide untamed hair and nude faces during early morning flights and redeyes. There’s nothing worse than dry hands and knotted hair after a long flight, but your travel sized hand cream and paddle hairbrush will be an easy fix and should never be abandoned on a trip. Lastly, when you arrive to your hotel room, light up your favorite scented candle, inviting a sense of home and comfort to your temporary stay. By Gina Velasco
