Summer may be ending, but that doesn’t mean your vacations have to. In fact, studies show that one of the best times of the year to go on a trip is around the fall season. This is because most students are back in school, meaning that airport travel has slowed down drastically. If you’re planning a vacation in the next few weeks, you’re going to want at least one of the things on this list to make your next trip less stressful 

1. Tote Bag
    MZ Wallace
  This bag is perfect to be used as your carry-on bag. Not only is it sleek and stylish, but it’s incredibly roomy, so you can fit all of your vacation outfits with the utmost ease. It has two exterior zipper pockets, two zippered collar pockets, a removable, adjustable crossbody strap, and a sleeve to slide on top of your luggage

2. A Comfy Travel Set
    Cari Capri
   When you’re traveling, it’s important to be incredibly comfortable, especially if you have a long trip ahead of you. This set from Cari Capri is buttery soft and made with organic Tencel cotton. You can even remove the belt around the waist if you’re going for the most comfortable you could ever be. You’re not going to want to travel in any other outfit once you try this one.

3. A Good Pair Of Shoes
    Cari Capri

  These sneakers are perfect if you’re going for the casual yet effortlessly chic look. The neutral color of these natural cork sneakers makes them a perfect choice for traveling and to match with all of the outfits you brought for the trip. The best part? For every pair of Corker Sneakers we sell, Cari Capri plants a tree!

4. Electrolytes
    Amazon

  When you’re traveling, you may find yourself getting dehydrated, but also if your vacation is a little bit more involved. It’s easy to forget to replenish your body with water and nutrients when you’re too busy having fun! Packing some electrolyte packets you can easily pour into a water bottle will keep you feeling hydrated and ready to tackle the next vacation activity!

5. Pre-Shipping Your Luggage
    UPS

  Many people don’t know this, but you can actually have your luggage shipped directly to wherever your destination is! With the increasing reports of travel delays and lost luggage, this is a great option to provide you peace of mind knowing that your things will be at your hotel safe and sound. Most luggage companies use DHL or UPS, and pick-up is about a week before your flight! 

6. Packing Cubes : Amazon

  If you have ever thought that there was no possible way you can fit more things in your luggage, you are wrong! Packing cubes, by some sort of magic, make it possible to fit even more things in your bag. This is probably because it helps you fold your items neatly and tightly in each cube. Not only does it help create space, but you’ll have all of your things perfectly organized for when you land!

7. Toiletry Bag : Amazon

  You never want to be seen without one of these when traveling. This toiletry bag is not only useful, thanks to the TSA-approved clear windows, but it’s way prettier than most toiletry bags you’ll find online. You can store your makeup, lotions, perfumes, and even jewelry if you have any!

8. A Caftan
   Natori

   Packing a Caftan is a great choice when traveling because it’s so versatile and incredibly lightweight. It won’t take up much space in your bag, but it has so many uses! You can wear it as a simple cover-up at the beach, add a belt and turn it into a dress, or if you find a shorter one, you can wear it as a loose top over your favorite shorts. It’s flowy, comfortable, and begging to be packed into your luggage for your next tropical vacation.

9. Face Towels : Amazon

  These towels are great for everyday use but especially helpful while traveling. After hours of traveling around in public trying to get to your destination, you’ll want to wash your face of any pollutants you may have encountered. These are great for removing makeup when you wet them and add your cleanser, or are great to use as simple towels to wipe the sweat and gunk off your face. 

Don’t let the upcoming winter blues keep you from going on that trip you’ve been dreaming about! It’s never too late in the year to go somewhere new, and with this list, you’ll have everything you need to keep yourself stress-free and excited for your next adventure.
