We have several trips coming up and I thought that this post would be a perfect time to share with you all how I get ready for a trip. If you follow me on social media then you know that our little family travels a lot! We mainly travel to our river house in Concan, Texas and our beach condo in Destin, Florida. I guess you could say we love the water! I've already started packing for a girls trip to Destin in exactly two weeks. I'm so excited to share all the fun things that I'll be taking with me. I did a Target run today for a few spring basics and they had so many cute and affordable spring looks already out that I can't wait to style!
I only have to pack for myself and a toddler. My husband is good about getting his bags packed and ready to go. I do ALL the laundry so that definitely makes it easy for him. He'll never admit this but he over packs, like takes it to another level. Does a man really need 8 pairs of shorts and 14 t-shirts for 3 days? Our two little fur babies get one bag, two beds and two blankets- they're easy!
1. Packing cubes / This brand has 5K+ five star reviews! I LOVE mine. It makes organizing (especially summer apparel) so easy to find when you're getting ready on a trip. I pack a cube for shorts, another for tanks/tees, swimsuits/cover ups, pajamas and one of the smaller cubes for bras/undies/socks. You name it- it has its own cube!
2. Toiletry bag / It holds a lot more than you would think. Love the print on this one!
3. Shoe bags / These have changed my packing game :-) I normally have shoes all over the car because I don't want to put dirty shoes in my suitcase with clean clothes. Problem solved!
4. Steamer / I don't even use an iron anymore. This streamer is great!
5. Makeup mirror / Makes it easy to do my makeup sitting at a table (with a glass of wine) or at the kitchen island instead of standing up leaning into the bathroom mirror. This mirror is nice because it also lights up & it's just really cute!
6. Jewelry box / Perfect for a few jewelry pieces & makes a great gift. I got this for my sister in law this Christmas and she loved it.
7. Makeup bag / Just $7 & great quality!
8. Inflatable travel toddler bed / We've used this inflatable bed for our son (he'll be 3 years old in April) since September and he loves it. As do I! He is a big boy for his age and fits comfortably.
9. All purpose tote / I was so hoping this bag was still on Amazon and it was! I had to go back to my orders from 2017 to find the link. I bought this bag over 2 years ago and it goes with us on every single trip. I wish it came in more colors but it only comes in black (which is the one I have) & a red pattern print. It's a perfect kids bag because it has so many pockets. I use it for diapers, wipes, powder, bath products, sound machine, books & baby blankets -basically anything Michael Austin needs for bedtime!
I hope you enjoyed reading this post as much as I enjoyed creating it for you. I'll be sharing a few of these products in my Instagram stories so be sure to watch for a closer look!
