Travel Must Haves 

Since I’m traveling back to Nashville today, I figured it would be a great time to share 5 of my travel must haves. 

PACKING CUBES

It took me a minute to get on this bandwagon, but once I did I didn’t look back. I never pack my suitcase without using them. They hold things in place, you can pack like items or outfits, and they just generally help my stay organized. (You know I’m a fan all things organized.) 

MULTIPLE USB PORT/CHARGER 

Seems there are never enough outlets, especially when traveling, and even more so in condos/AirBNB’s. I use a charger with multiple ports even at home. Now that everyone own seems to need to be charged, these are a must have  

JEWELRY ORGANIZER 

I usually have quite a few accessories with me when I travel and I like to carry them in something that will protect them. I have several different options that I use depending on how long I’m planning to be gone. 

This and this are both great options. 

BACKPACK/TOTE 

Of course I never leave my house for a trip without my computer. I used to always carry one of these totes. Then I switched to this, and most recently (for the last 3 years) I’ve been using this backpack. It has a designated pocket for my computer, and then several other zippered areas. I started putting my purse inside one of them to cut down on bags and I love it. I can put my wallet and AirPods in the font pocket, and my book in another. There are two side pockets that will hold a bottle of water and my phone. (Use code LISAR10 on Vera Bradley and can be combined with sale prices.)

TOILETRIES BAG(S)

I have quite a collection of toiletries bags. Depending on where I’m going, for how long, and how much room I have in my suitcase dictates what I bring. On this trip I used 3 different bags. This bag holds my travel dry shampoo, volume spray and hair spray, along with toothbrush, toothpaste, and smaller things like ponytail holders, razor, etc….

This bag holds my makeup and has enough room to throw in any extra things I might need. 

I used one of these to hold my skincare and some supplements. These come in packs of three and also make for great gifts when you thrown in some small things. You could add a travel body-wash, headband, perfume atomizer (I brought 2 of these) and small face cleansing balm. 

If you have a travel must have I haven’t mentioned, be sure to share. We are all looking for ways to make life easier. 

I hope you’ll follow along on Instagram. I share on there daily and you can see more of my daily life in stories. You can also me on Facebook and Pinterest, and be sure to sign up to receive my newsletters that come out whenever there’s a new blog post. On Fridays the newsletter has links to all the sales and on Monday’s I share the previous weeks top 6 sellers. They have a lot of good info in them, including sale alerts from our favorite retailers. Just scroll to the bottom and put your email in.

  • I love those packing cubes! I'm going to have to check out that Vera Bradley backpack as I hate having a totally separate bag for my laptop and then another bag with my book and other travel things (I have an old Vera Bradley laptop holder that zips flat for easy air travel but we hardly ever travel by air anymore).
