Always pack a hat. In the winter, a knit hat will keep you warm and take up little room. In the summer, a brimmed hat will keep the sun off your face. In either case, it will save you when your straightening iron doesn’t work in the trapezoidal electrical socket you found in your hotel room.
Bring a travel first aid kit with the following: ibuprofen (or other pain killer), decongestant, NyQuil, bandages, hydrocortisone cream. You will not believe how often it will come in handy.
You will never wear that second dressy outfit, so stop packing it. Most trips, you won’t even wear the first dressy outfit (but you should still pack that one).
Never pack something that you haven’t worn before. Otherwise you’ll find your new shoes too uncomfortable, your new jacket too flimsy, your new underwear too wedgie-prone.
If you hate wearing something at home, you will hate wearing it even more on a trip.
Pack those god-awful tennis shoes you only wear “jogging” (a.k.a., “to the store to buy ice cream”) At some point during your trip, you won’t care what you look like. You will only care about being comfortable.
Never carry your wallet in your back pocket, and never carry your purse on just your shoulder.
Stuffing socks into your shoes can help you save space and ensure your loafers retain their shape
Dryer sheets remove static from your hair and clothing and make your suitcase smell awesome while taking up virtually no room.
Suffer from motion sickness? Ask for a drink that is half ginger ale and half club soda. It will help alleviate nausea without putting you into diabetic shock.
Wear sunscreen anytime you will be outside, regardless of the temperature or weather.
Rolling non-wrinkable items before shoving them into your suitcase really does save space.
