Nothing beats having the least number of items in my suitcase when I’m traveling. The less baggage I bring, the better it is. Here are some tips I learned over the years to help you travel light on your next trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A good way to travel light is by simply planning a few days. Once you plan your trip, you can make a list of the essential items to bring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose pieces in three matching colors so you can mix and match to create multiple outfits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neutrals (black, white, navy, tan, denim) will tie your wardrobe together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few great basics are a pair of jeans, a white tee, a pair of shorts, a casual coat or cardigan, comfy sneakers, and sandals or booties. Don\u2019t forget the little black dress!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Packing a few thin layers. Layers take up less space\u00a0and offer much more flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a weekend trip pack about 10-15 pieces and for a 2-week trip: pack 15-20 pieces. Bring no more than two pairs of shoes and don\u2019t bring heels! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having one carry-on during your trip makes it much easier. Not only do you have little to carry with you, but your trip will also be more convenient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You do not have to worry about losing checked-in luggage if you only have a carry-on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of the time we pack too many clothes and shoes. Suitcase space is precious. Don\u2019t waste it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
