By now I am sure all of you know how much I LOVE travelling. I have been constantly updating all of you with my visits to small cities or big ones in India or abroad. Today I am leaving for United Sates and this happens to be my first visit to the states. I am pretty excited about seeing a new country and sharing all my experiences with all my readers.
Well I am just carrying one suitcase and a handbag and the idea is not to travel light but to carry less so that I can shop more there 😉
While packing for next 20 days I wanted to be very careful as I did not want to carry stuff that I will not need. So I thought why not share some simple packing rules with all of you who are planning to travel.
- For your outfit:
# One most comfortable pair of jeans and one flattering pair of skinny pants/jeans/trouser
# A dress for a special evening
# 2 pair of shoes one that is very comfortable for long walks and one that enhances the look of your outfit
# 1 Jacket which has a great cut and goes with most of your clothes
# Tops with a mix of stripes, prints, solids so that your look does not become mundane - Make-up
# A sunscreen or a moisturizer with sunscreen
# Lip gloss
# Kohl stick & Linear
# Concealer
#Make-up remover
Go with bare minimum make up kit but if you are heavily into make-up you can carry two additional items
#Eye Shadow
#Cheek color
3. Accessories
# Take a nice pair of sunglasses and make sure you wear them
# Carry one neutral belt that can do with you jeans, dress and even jackets if you planning to layer
# A scarf is a versatile accessory , can be used to cover skin from sun, keep you from cold and can totally transform your outfit
# Gloves if you are going to a cold place
4. Emergency kit
# Basic medicines
# Tissues/Face wipes
# Hand sanitizer
# Band-Aids
5. Miscellaneous YET important stuff:
# A book to read during your travel
# Extra hair elastics, if you also lose them all the time like me 😉
# A nice perfume
# Keep cash & cards in two different places.
# A notepad & pen
# Camera & the charger
