It's time to pack the little things, all of your accessories. Small items like jewelry,
makeup, belts, and hair brushes can snag on other clothes. Invest in a jewelry roll with
clear plastic windows, or use small zipper bags for items such as earrings, bracelets,
necklaces, and watches so they are easy to see and won't get tangled. Pack valuable jewelry
in your carry on bag. Place carry on liquids such as shampoo, foundation, and body wash
in travel containers following TSA rules. For daily makeup, place everything you use,
including powder, blush, and eye shadow into a cosmetics bag. If products slip, the spill
is contained. Secure your phone, tablet, or laptop cords with a cable clip or a rubber
band and place them in a clear, sealable bag. Slip items such as belts and socks into your
shoes. If you're packing a hairdryer, simply loop the cord and secure with a hair tie or
rubber band. Place a hair brush and comb into their own bag so they don't snag your clothing.
Then, pack the bag in an inside pocket of the suitcase so the bristles aren't crushed.
To pack an evening bag or fancy clutch, first place the handle or chain inside the bag so
it doesn't get tangled. You can also slip a scarf, belt or extra socks inside if you
need the space. Now, your suitcase is packed and you're ready to go.
