You have worked all week, now it’s Friday and you are going out of town for the weekend. Definitely, you need to go along with luggage which consists of clothing and essentials. As most of us can attest to especially the women folk, we end up tugging along an overloaded bag, filled with things we end up never using.
Packing for a weekend trip means packing light and packing items that will serve double duty.
Below you’ll find tips on what and how to pack for your weekend trips.
- Take three pairs of underwear and two pairs of socks for the weekend. This can be washed, hung to dry and re worn.
- Your favorite pair of blue jeans
- Pack clothing that is wrinkle resistant like polyester. Read labels when purchasing your clothes.
- Fold your clothes then roll into cylinders; this reduces wrinkle and space used.
- Take one pair of sleep clothes.
- Wear a pair of comfortable casual shoes to travel and pack a dress shoe.
For women:
- Pack a neutral clothing (black, brown, gray) that can be teemed with bright colors; the trick is to pack a few items of clothing that work together and can be interchanged.
- Purchase a space saving travel bag with compartments
- Wear one pair of earrings that go with everything and only pack additional accessories if you are planning an outing and need to dress up an outfit.
- Leave expensive jewelry at home
Travel Essentials
- Toiletry bag with essentials – toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, hairbrush, moisturizer. Pack travel size toiletries if possible.
- Makeup Kit

So what are you waiting for, get packing!
