Agree so much on all of this! Packing posts on my blog always seem to be the most popular so it’s obviously something many people (women in particular) seem to struggle with.
My favorite layering tip is to pack a thermal long sleeved top outside the usual winter packing list. They pop easily under a long sleeved shirt and light jacket without bulk on either you or the bag! Means you don’t need heavy sweaters or fleeces that take up so much precious space in your bag!
Great Tip!!
I love the Container Store’s “PACK THIS!” list. Why make a packing list when they’ve done such a good job? It’s a memo pad of the list, so you can use one each time you travel. Sometimes, just rereading the list before I declare myself “packed” helps me remember that one stupid thing I forgot to put it. It’s saved me more than once!
I always use a list when packing – if I don’t I can always count on forgetting something. 3 tips for making a list really work for you:
1. Don’t make your list at the last moment. If you rush the list, you’re bound to forget something. Give yourself some time to think it through and review.
2. Make sure your list includes a list of of your daily medications. Make sure you have enough before you leave!
3. Bring your list with you and refer to it when packing up to come home. This has saved me countless times from leaving something behind.
