Pack a Better Carry on Tote

Pack a Better Carry on Tote

Traveling takes preparation. If you are anything like me, you probably hate to go somewhere and find yourself without something you rely on. I have traveled a little this year and have found some things that were ultra useful. I daydream of getting this monogrammed Speedy with a handy shoulder strap too!

I will start with a few beauty items I found that really worked for me. I just ordered this jam colored Glossier lip stain. The color is perfect and it doesn’t require a liner to stay put. It shipped in this adorable bubble wrap pouch. The pouch is quart sized and perfect for the airport. This Marc Jacobs eyeliner can do double duty for eyes and brows. Tata Harper’s lip and cheek tint is great for a healthy flush. These lavender towelettes do just about everything and smell heavenly.

We all know that finding a snack or a drink while traveling is not always ideal. I like these Curate bars for a snack because they have fun flavors like dark chocolate hazelnut and balsamic mission fig. These Pique tea crystals are ideal for having a relaxing ritual while going places. I like to take these little containers from MUJI and fill them with tea and Stevia packets.

Having tech at hand is an essential and these three finds have been helpful. This Grid It tech organizer is a lifesaver for organizing your tote. The stretchy bands hold all of your charger cords and gadgets in place. A backup charger is a must and this one can charge two gadgets at once! I also am a fan of this cute charging cable.
