How many times you packed your luggage with to many items that you didn’t even need? This post is going to help you to figure out what you really need to put in your luggage.
I have to admit it, I’m super excited these days because in less than one week, me and my boyfriend are going to Sorrento, Capri, and Positano.
My favorite places to go during summer time, EVER!
At the same time, I’m worried because I have to pack and I’m not very good at it. I’m always afraid that I can forget something important (most of the time I forget my contact lenses -my entire life!!- and flat iron). This time round, I decided to
start packing in advance so that I won’t miss anything!

WHAT DO YOU REALLY NEED IN YOUR LUGGAGE
Well, this is a very tough question. Many of us don’t even know the answer. After many fails, I figured out what I really need to bring with me in the luggage when I travel.
It worked for me and I wanted to share these few but effective tips with you
LESS IS MORE.
The first rule is to pack only the essentials. Just write down a list of items that you use on a daily basis and pack only those things and trust me you won’t regret it. Your luggage will weight less -yeeeey- and you won’t forget anything because you have everything you’ll need. By that, I mean only first necessity items.
I apply
this rule also (or especially) on make up. I always have so many make up bags and I always end up using veeeery few items.

DON’T DO IT LAST MINUTE.
Second rule: don’t pack last minute. As I said before, you’re going to forget so many useful items and trust me, you are going to pack the first things you see that do not mean necessary. I start few days before writing down the
list of items I’ll need.
Listing is key!
I put all the items, except the one I need every day,(such as tooth brush, tooth paste, hair brush, deodorant etc.), because they are going to be packed last minute.
THINK SMALL
Beauty products are usually the one who take so much space in my luggage and weight more than any other thing.
Buy travel size items – there are many travel size trousse that you can buy, especially in airports-. Don’t bring your full size perfume ( airport allows maximum of 100 ml of liquids ) . I love to bring bag size perfumes. I always bring with me when I travel my favourite parfume from Jo Malone’s that sells 30 ml perfume sizes. My favourite one is Mimosa & Cardamom . Also,
when you travel through air, you cannot bring so many liquids so this is a deal.
SHOES
I love shoes. I’m sure that every woman does but sadly when I go on vacation I only use the same shoes for the day time (mostly sneakers) and heels for the evening and night. Try to bring only one sneaker and one pair of heels, making sure thy fit
every outfit – I usually bring black and not too extravagant shoes-.
MAKE UP
What are the make up items that you use on a daily basis? If I have to make a list of
them I will probably chose:
-This Concealer
(absolutely)
-This Mascara(absolutely)
-This Brow gel
– Creamy blush
