A professional organizer and stylist, known for running with celebrities like Madison Beer, has highlighted a common mistake many travelers make when packing.
As many of us know, improper packaging can lead to overpacking, which can lead to additional charges if an airline’s baggage weight limits are exceeded. In her informative video, CaitlinJaymes, also known as @caitlin_jaymes, shows 3 packing tips she advises her consumers to keep when traveling in the summer.
She explains, “The key to being a smart packer and an over-packer is to locate pieces that you can dress up for the evening, and then wear them again and dress more casually for the day. “an example of her wearing a beautiful and colorful long skirt, explains: “For example, I just came back from Cabo and this is the skirt I used to wear at night.
“I wore it with a white heel and the next day I simply wore it as a sarong with a white bikini. Versatile, it didn’t take up any space, it’s a success. “
In his second tip, he says travelers can look for packing materials that they “really like when they pack and unpack. “Pointing to small, clear bags, she continued, “These are bikini-type garage bags. They’re a way to organize your swimsuits, but I also wear them when I travel.
“The most productive component is that after I’m done on the beach, I put this bikini back here [the bag], even though it’s wet, it doesn’t fit anything in my suitcase. It’s embarrassing, I know, but I just got back from Cabo. ” Three weeks ago my suit is still there because I have to wash it. It doesn’t smell, it hasn’t been molded, nothing. “
In her last piece of advice for travelers looking to save space and money, the third point is that you should take into account the events you are going to attend and prepare your clothes for them. And he concludes: “Look at the occasions you have and choose outfits for each event. I like to take photos of all my outfits,” he says because that way he had his outfits in a position to go through without rummaging through his bags.
In the comments, one of them said, “Good advice!” Another added: “You are my secret weapon. “
Meanwhile, a third asked: “I’m going to Europe, to 3 countries. Lots of walking, hiking and it’s going to be hot! In response, the expert said, “Lots of light dresses that you can wear to dinner or during the day. Skirts with ribbed straps and then repurpose the ribbed tank for your hiking outfit. “
