I am on the same quest for the perfect toiletrybag 😄. I even have gone so far to try to make my own... for a while it worked..... but.... the quest is still there

[@saminazafar5879]

Belts! Always keep them in the perimeter of the luggage, unrolled. It’s like they don’t exist!

[@Rose-jz6ix]

I have to use a machine to sleep. Can I buy an adapter to cover each country? It has stopped us travelling outside of Australia.

[@selectiveoutrage6617]

@@Rose-jz6ix They usually sell adapters in a kit with all of them so you don't have to buy separately.

[@Rose-jz6ix]

@@selectiveoutrage6617 thank you so much. That will be on my list of have to do 🇦🇺😊♥️👋

[@mkox]

Here's my hack: most of my summer clothes are linen or cotton, you can't do polyester in the hot Mediterranean climate. A trick I use to keep them wrinkle free in the suitcase is to put tissue paper (also called wrapping tissue or silk tissue paper in other places of the world) in between when folding them. It's the paper your clothes come wrapped in when ordering online most of the time. Don't throw it away - it really keeps even the finest garments wrinkle-free, even in your drawers.

[@JulesTomasi]

Isn't it just easier to bring a steamer?

[@mkox]

@@JulesTomasi I find them too bulky and heavy for a carry-on. Maybe there's an ultra portable version I'm not aware of, would love to read some suggestions. It's definitely better if space and weight is not an issue, but I would still use tissue paper for fabrics like silk, linen and viscose to prevent deep creases.

[@SabrinaEsposito-lg9yv]

I have done the same and it works on silk, linen anything that is dry clean only! prevents from getting stains or wrinkles

[@cathyh1680]

Yes, I store some of my clothes at home with this paper. You can usually buy this paper for about one dollar a packet at most dollar stores.

[@frankievalentine6112]

That's called tissue paper 😆

I’ve been using packing cubes for many years, and they have been a game changer. Using a checklist, planning my outfits ahead of time has also helped me to stay organized and not overpack. This allows me to use the carry-on size more often.

[@NoorAwad-x3q]

As I pack, I take photos of the outfits with the accessories/shoes etc and save the photos to an outfit folder in my phone. This way when I get to my destination, I know exactly what goes with what. It can get confusing when you throw a bunch of separates into a bag. This helps simplify things!

[@annmarie6570]

That is a fantastic idea!!!

[@anacorona2527]

Yes! Same!! Life changer

[@queenland2882]

Yes I do the same all the time

[@ShawnMurpheee]

I went on a 10-day trip overseas with just a mid-size luggage and a personal bag. Anna is spot on that this is much less stressful with advance planning, packing cubes, and lists. I knew my itinerary and had planned my travel wardrobe such that I did not repeat an outfit and only did laundry at one stop during the trip. Since I knew what our activity was for the next day, I assembled my outfit the night before and was ready quickly in the morning for the tour. While everyone else was wearing leggings and a sweatshirt, I felt more comfortable in a more thoughtful outfit.

[@gabrielatremarin8514]

My trick for the summer is: get minis of everything and have your toiletry bag ready. This month my partner is away for work and I travel every weekend to be with him. So my toiletries are ready to go which means I only pack my clothes the day before. Life changing!

[@HottgirlzinMiami]

Absolutely been doing that for years

[@guaridadelabestia]

I love to travel with carry-on luggage only. It can be boring sometimes to repeat some clothes but I prefer that than all the stress and time that a big luggage implies. Loved this video! ❤

[@LoboLady2007]

AMEN!!!

[@LauraSchendel-ko1qk]

If you hate to iron…get a garment bag, ask your dry cleaner for plastic dry cleaner bags. Place each item you are packing by itself inside a plastic dry cleaner bag. Use the thinnest hangers you have. Place a big rubber band around the hangers when you are finished. Place inside your garment bag. When you get to your destination, you won’t have to iron a thing! YAY! Also, to unpack, you just hang up everything in your hotel closet. No need to place on hotel hangers! I’m an International Airline Stewardess. Just saying.

[@MeMe-ht2hd]

Same. Plus, I know where my luggage 🧳 is and don't worry about it getting lost.

[@guaridadelabestia]

@@MeMe-ht2hd Exactly!

[@tamikaleeryker]

Always take a cardigan. You never know.

[@deeyaseechurn6584]

I used to be a cabin crew and packed exactly as Anna explained here. I also kept a casual outfit including underwear in my carry on, in case my checked in luggage got lost or didnt arrive on time.

[@cherrypinkblue]

Minimalist packing is one of the best thing happens here on YT in my opinion. I think it's easier to look neutral or classic during traveling by wearing repeated outfits than packing lots of options. The more options I can choose the less experience I'd enjoy because I can be so indecisive. Sure you need your statement pieces that can elevate your look and it's all about finding the tricks. Although I'm not an extreme one, minimalism does help me to find the right balance between style and fulfilling experience.

[@sheilameagher3675]

Thank you. I have found that when going thru Airport or train station security the more elegant or thoughtfully packed I am, the less my bags are opened and inspected by security (and everyone else). I have found that I prefer a Toiletry bag I can hang up. It leaves more space on the counter and keeps items from rolling off the counter. While most bathrooms do not have enough hooks I can hang the bag from the towel rack (and if there is a toilet rack up high it is usually high enough so I do not have to bend over to get anything out of the bag). I also prefer to have feet on my toiletry bag (in case there is water on the counter).

[@CPT_B]

I swear Anna knows exactly what I need to know, right when I need to hear it! Just booked my vacation and it will soon be time to start packing up for the trip. Best to stay organized and prepared to keep stress at a minimum.

[@hazydreamer7965]

Very sound and practical advice. I wish I would have thought of those things when I was younger and used to travel up and down Europe and the States for 15 years. My mother´s principle was that a well-brought-up young lady must never leave the house or the hotel looking untidy, and always needs to carry extra clothing with her in case the weather suddenly gets hot or cold. Needless to say, steamers did not exist back then. I bought a small travel iron, which started steaming when salt and water were added into a tiny compartment inside it. I followed her advice and used to travel with 2 large suitcases and a carry-on. Total weight appr. 40 to 50 kg. Only once I was forced to pay for extra luggage. - These days I travel with a carry-on only and find traveling so much easier and more fun.

[@jennifer_u]

I think linen is fine to pack in a carry-on as long as you have access to an iron or steamer. And it is a super elegant and classy material as well ☺️

[@selectiveoutrage6617]

Staying with friends helps

[@hollyinthewoods]

I love wearing linen & silks in the Cote Azur. Luckily the Airbnb has lots of amenities including iron & ac 😊

[@Jenekks]

As as a student of both of your courses (yes the old 7step one too(; I know this video will have all the answers I need! Thank you ❤

[@marenwilliams2787]

I just do laundry on vaca- just hand wash & dry overnight on the shower rack. Super easy & keeps your suitcase from getting gross!

[@j.rebekah8605]

Do you bring soap with you in a plastic small container or ? Great idea, btw

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I think planning is key, I need time to assemble a capsule wardrobe and make sure everything is clean and ironed (or steamed). I air-dry my clothes, so that’s 24 hours right there for drying some things.

[@ginnyl7208]

I always used to bring so much makeup with me when I often would barely wear any because of the many active activities or the hot weather. I now have found these 2 great palletes that contain just about anything I need. One Charlotte tilbury palette (gold version) that contains all my powders: eyeshadow, powder, bronzer/contour, blush and highlighter. One makeup forever face pallete with all creams: Foundation, concealer, correcter, contour/bronzer, blush and highlight. I only bring a tinted brow gel, mini mascara, mini CT brush set and neutral lipstick with that. It's so much more space saving then having all those items separately

[@Jenekks]

For toiletry bags, I always seem to end up using the disposible ziploc bags as they are so thin and lightweight. I spent a lot on toiletry bags and ebags and pouches etc. And they end adding way too much bulk and weight. I know some may frown down on them and not like using plastic, but this has worked the best for me.

[@ioanaragea7228]

I found the perfect toiletry bag after years of searching!!!! It is TRANSPARENT and that made everythingso easy! made out of plastic hard enough to not smash my products and makes it easy to find anything inside.

[@glorianelson9538]

After a lifetime of travelling I created my own personal check list adding some extras depending on the season. I always travel with a soft shell carry-on and pack pretty much the way you explained. Great advice as usual Anna! Hope you and your hubby have a fun and relaxing summer!

[@cynthiaa.9169]

I have been watching this,and I took all neutrals and wore monochrome outfits I went to Paris for week.All my clothes we're polyester blend along with outfits I could dress up or down.I took my carry on with my passport and of course my medications came with me I also packed 4 pairs of shoes.I think did well,although I forgot a couple of things they were easily replaced at the pharmacy. ❤ Another tip I only took one purse,a beautiful classy crossbody leather purse to prevent pick pockets and less of a chance of theft.And I wore my jewelry and kept it simple and classy.

[@cindyirene2001]

I recommend using a soft shell carry-on bag because it’s easier to fit in the overhead bin, you can fit more, lighter in weight, and is able to adapt to something that may be a different shape. It is also more durable as hard shell can get poked by other luggage, chip, or crack. A few friends of mine are flight attendants, and I also regularly travel for work and pleasure.

[@mangogo44]

FA here, def get a soft bag, hard ones break so fast... There's a reason why professional crew luggage is always soft

[@cindyirene2001]

@@mangogo44 Exactly. And most of my FA friends use Travel Pro specifically due to its durability and warranty. Not sure what you use but would be curious to hear what your circles use in comparison

I love how you went straight into the video Anna- it was very informative and helpful so thanks for the tips! It's right on time as well for the Summer season- and your dog in the background is adorable

[@flower-ss2jt]

Anna - your holidays and mine are different. I only take 2 'bottoms', 3 tops (6 outfits), 2 bras, 3 prs knickers, 2 pr shoes (walking and flip flops for evening!), pashmina, shampoo in small container that also use as soap, toothpaste in small tube, battery toothbrush, basis make up and creams, medication. If room a sarong that can double as turban and shawl. My tip is never that pyjamas - instead take an old top and pair of pull on trousers in a natural fibre that can, if needed double as daywear.

[@helo.angeli]

just noticed i already do all of these. when it comes to the products like skincare, shower, hair stuff... i bought smaller containers to which i transfer the content of the products so i dont carry the full weight/size, it saves a lot of space. and i started using the packing cubes this year and omg they saved my life! everything are much more organized, i can reach one thing without having to search te whole luggage

[@ElizabethDavisVlogs]

Literally just got packing cubes and new suitcases- this is perfect timing. Thanks for sharing 😊❤

[@orthodiva7487]

I wouldn’t pack polyester during summer. I don’t care that it wrinkles easily but I’ll pack with linen and cotton during summer in Europe. You can pack it bundle style to make it less wrinkled. And polyester makes you look cheap. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

[@georgiafrye2815]

I would also prefer to be comfortable and a bit wrinkled. I disagree and natural fibers breathe the best!! Many European countries do not have air conditioning in stores or restaurants. After all one is traveling. I carry a small bottle of wrinkle release which helps smooth out wrinkles.

[@joannecarroll427]

Great video! I never travel with polyester - I detest it! 🤮 So I always pack natural fibres and my portable steamer! ❤

[@opheliaretardanta8348]

I have always loved packing cubes and even compression packing cubes because I usually go on cheap flights and they only accept carryon since then I have remained in carry-on and even just flying with a small backpack but I always a have a wrinkle free clothing to prevent everyone seeing my clothes with wrinkles as a tourist ❤

[@glendanorman781]

This is an excellent subject Anna! OMG I have been making lists for travel for over 20 years and still I am looking to improve what I pack! I usually pack by how many days I will be gone. I also decide if taking a full size item in my bag is worth the space. Sometimes it costs to much to buy the item I left at home (with toiletries). I have gotten a few small travel bottles to refill every time, it's a game changer! It helps so much to make a list before you go on a trip! (I have forgotten my chargers for phone/tablet etc-grrr!)

[@lauratimmins2177]

You are a girl after my own heart. I've done mostly cycling and biking trips using panniers and backpacks with all my stuff packed into dry bags for both types of travel. Less is more as you have physically carry all your stuff all the time. Lists for all categories is crucial. I like using ziploc bags to individualize my stuff in my clear toiletry bag(s) and keep it clean too. It has worked out well. Less can be great! My first 2 week cruise is coming up to the Panama Canal. One medium suitcase to check and one nylon backpack to hold my cross shoulder day bag and small protective black purse used for casual and dressy occasions on the flight. The suitcase location tag was mentioned by my cycling store so I have too. Happy travels. Thanks. 😊

[@Nick84525]

Hi Anna! Loved this video ❤ One thing one must not forget about the toiletry bag is sunscreen! Stay protected from the sun ladies as it is the main cause of everything we don’t want on our faces (wrinkles, sunspots, collagen loss, dehydration etc)

[@hotjanuary]

If you’re leaving longer than 3 days in a hot climate, consider bringing a bar of laundry soap. Sunlight sells some for my fellow Canadians. This way, you don’t need to bring multiple sets of the same thing (like camisoles).

[@jivankovic01]

Dear Anna, you are definitely on point on this topic. I also make sure I bring my medicine with me in the carry-on. All valuable items must go in carry-on or your personal bag. If you are traveling in economy class, I suggest bringing a snack or two. Some airlines may not be that generous with snacks. It just depends on what kind of flight you have.

[@natalialitvinova1894]

[@pinkfabulous248]

I’m already planning my outfits for holidays, I love everything that doesn’t need ironing. 🌸✈️

[@Redwhiteblue-gr5em]

I first make out a list (down to shoes, undergarments, jewelry) of every outfitIfor EACH day. Then I pull together everything I listed and then start packing. I begin about a week before my departure. If it’s a short trip (4 days or shorter)) I try to pack everything in one or two carryons. Then I experiment fitting everything and if it doesn’t fit then I start to figure which items are essential and which are not that important and can be eliminated. Taking the time to plan is key. If you do it a day before you will probably forget something so give it at least a week.

[@tamikaleeryker]

If you feel like trying on bf leaving, take pictures of the outfits, so you know what goes together best.

[@cathyh1680]

Great advice. It might be good to bring an extra suitcase lock if you are travelling abroad because at some country ports like Australia your lock will be broken because they search every suitcase and break the lock if it doesn't have the customs keyhole on it for them to open it.

The shoe thing is so accurate- one pair of statement heels, to go with my nicest outfit- the rest are neutrals, to suit their purposes- & most of them are flats. Oh- *never* bring new shoes on a trip - I assure you, there are _multiple_ reasons why you can end end up regretting that...

[@smallparticlelinda]

I'd advise against bringing designer handbags or anything too expensive that you don't want to be ruined. Moreover, if someone sees you have something valuable on you, such as expensive accessories, you'd just be a target for theft and robbery, especially when it's obvious that you're a tourist.

Regarding the toiletry bag. I found one on Amazon, comes in different colors and it’s great. It is collapsible, it has a hook inside so once you open it up there are multiple sections and it is clear so you can see everything inside. Super convenient. You just open it, hang it up and once you’re done you don’t have to pack everything up again. You just fold it back together and you’re done. You have the advantages of see through without the dirty, cheap look since it’s only see through once you open it.

If you are looking for a hardsided, clear toiletry case, you could try searching for clear plastic storage containers and/or pencil boxes. They are many kinds of containers that would hold toileties even though they aren't marketed for that use. I'm not sure if having toiletries in a pencil box is classy, but it would be effective.

[@SimplyBeautiful516]

My hack is that I have a 100 copies of a master packing list that is permanently in a small leather bound notebook in my carry-on. Each entry page has room for me to add specific items to each trip as needed. Retaining these lists makes it easier when I take similar trips because I can look back to see any additions and changes that I made the last time I went on that type of travel. I rarely forget anything important now. It took approximately 2 hours ( not all at once) to set up initially but has saved countless hours since then.

Good morning dear elegant ladies, I will be going for almost 2 weeks on the country side this summer and I want to know what to pack. What do you ladies suggest? There will be some gardening things to do and other things around the house. Should I just wear leggings and t-shirts or sweat shirts? What would you wear when helping repair a fence and other household activities? I obviously won't be able to wear dresses 😅. What about shoes ? Should I wear only sneakers? boots? Thank you in advance for your ideas and suggestions ❤️

[@desantisjen]

Thank you, Anna! I will use the tip to plan ahead of time. I am surprised you don't pack more hair and skin products. I am very picky about products and want to bring what I own. These liquids are always the hardest for me to pack, but essential! I've checked bags just to make these easier to take with me. I'm curious who else deals with this issue. :)

[@tamikaleeryker]

I don't want to buy it when I get there. It almost always costs more.

[@miisupesa]

Although most hotels provide basic toiletries, always bring your own shampoo and conditioner - the ones in the hotel bathroom might not be the best for your hair. The last thing you'd want is to waste your valuable time worrying about your greasy or frizzy hair or the intense scent of the hotel shampoo following you everywhere or announcing your arrival from afar. And when packing your clothes - always try them on first, especially if you haven't worn them for a few months. Elastic bands age and become loose, maybe you've lost/gained weight and the garments aren't a perfect fit any more.

Hotel toiletries are so small too.

I actually never take the laundry bag. I use the cubes. Once I get to my destination, I take all of the clothes out of the cubes( preferably hang them ) and have empty cubes for dirty clothes.

I prefer to use BÉIS travel’s hanging toiletry case. It’s soft sided, but pretty stiff. Things stay where they’re supposed to and everything has a place.

Great tips Anna! Going on a trip this week and will take these into account. I love Métier for toiletry bags-don’t own one yet-but when I have the money set aside that’s going to be the brand I go with. For now, I have a set from Truffle and they get the job done and look nice too. ☺️

I love, love, love Metier!!!!!! But my advice is to save up for one of their purses, I love my Metier mini Roma so so so much. I also love my Anya Hindmarch accessories.

We leave for Nice in three weeks. I started packing last month - and have extensive lists!

[@MeanOldLady]

I packed 30 days worth of clothes & items in one carry-on using the army roll method & packing cubes for toiletries in case of spillage. I had a packet of detergent just in case, as well as one of those stain removal sticks as well as a tiny sewing kit & I ended up using all of those on my trip. Dramamine was also a godsend.

The amount of lists I make for every trip I take, journals filled with them. I make lists according to the luggage(s), then sub-lists for what I need (toiletries, makeup, clothes). If there's a set itinerary for the trip, I make lists with pre-planned outfits to possibly wear each day. Also, I pack flip-flops to walk around in the hotel room, especially in the bathroom, and a pillowcase since most hotels have 1 case on their pillows

Thank you very much for all these tips! I have traveled quite a lot and mostly alone, so I tried to be as practical as possible, but still keeping an elegance in my pocket. 😄 I do the same about getting an additional bag for laundry to not mix with clean ones and even with the luggage internal lining, shoes always in bags, toiletries as little as possible (usually the 100 ml bottles), so everything in small packages. What I want to add to the list is an emergency kit with plasters (maybe shoes can hurt while walking distance), pills for different symptoms (antiflu, vomit, diarrea, headache etc), spray for mosquitos etc. I never use medication in my daily life, but if I am in an unknown place, I would certainly use them for my own commodity.

Don't forget to save room for things you buy unless the store offers shipping.

[@kekp3791]

@@tamikaleeryker Great idea! Thank you! We should think about the shopping too. 😄

Great content, Anna. I’m taking copious notes for our next vacation! Off-topic question: Where did you get your lovely v-neck sweaters? I see camel and lavender ones in this video, colors I like in my wardrobe too!

This is such an informative video, thanks Anna! It's just in time for all the summer holiday season that is coming 😊
