TRAVEL HACKS: THE 8 ITEMS I SWEAR BY

April 21, 2026

Pants // Shoes // Bag // Sweatshirt (on sale – I also have it in black)

I was on the road quite a bit in early April – NYC on back-to-back trips and then a quick 48 hours in Dallas. Luckily, I am staying put for a bit besides a road trip here and there. Each year as I add more and more travel in the books I think about the pieces that really make traveling easier and more enjoyable. Today I am sharing eight items that are working for me right now.

NEOPRENE CARRYALL BAG

I have carried a lot of travel bags in my day and I have to say this bag has been my favorite so far. I love that it is super easy to clean, literally has pockets for everything (I personally love the exterior hidden phone pocket) and has a sleeve to slip this over your carry on luggage handle. It is lightweight and has two straps with great drop for both shoulder and cross body! I have the large in black.

THE AIRPORT SWEATSHIRT

I posted this and a lot of you seemed to love it as much as I do. It is oversized, but the collar and construction still makes it feel a bit more put together than a crewneck sweatshirt. It comes in so many great colors and is on sale right now here.

THE WOVEN LEATHER FLAT CLUTCH

On every trip I need a pouch of some sort for the various items I need within reach at all times. This pouch is as functional as it is fun. I keep my lipgloss, air pods, bacterial wipes, and a few other must haves inside!
