I learned the second bag trick from you years ago, and it is key. I could never do all carry-on until I got a larger second bag that would fit under the seat in front. One thing to remember is because of the 2 bag limit for carry-on, if you are carrying a purse it has to fit in the second bag for boarding.

@BusbeeStyle 10 дней назад

The second bag is JUST as important as your carry-on! Thanks for watching, Janet! xo

My very first trip to Europe with a friend, 18 years old, I took all the wrong things, including heavy luggage, thin shoes, wrinkling clothes. I literally sent them home the first week, bought a small bag, rubber soled shoes, and learned to travel with two colors, wrinkle free light weight clothes and only carry-ons. I rarely deviate. I hate checking a bag and have found a way to make multiple permutations with the items I can compress into that small bag and personal bag. You have suggested some great items to take. Now I will wear my trench and walking shoes, just use my iPhone camera, simplify my hair, leave the dryer at home, etc. I have had Travel Pro and Tumi bags but am ready for a new hard-shell roller bag, black. We are going to Paris again next year. Your capsule list will be where I start. You are the best, Erin!😘

Hi Erin, This video is perfect timing for me. I am going to Denmark and Sweden next month. I will take all of your tips to heart. Two years ago my husband and I took a three week trip to Italy. It was our first European Vacation without the kids since we had been married and we wanted to be a little more dressed up, but also do a lot of hiking. We overpacked so much and regretted it almost everyday. We stayed mostly in "Old City" centers so we had to leave our car away from our apartments. We often stayed on 5th or 6th floors so that meant we were constantly rooting through our luggage in the car lot to try to bring just essentials. My one additional tip is to pack your toiletries, tech and non clothing items before your clothing. It is amazing how much clothing you can cram in a bag, but then not have room for your other essentials. It just saves time and headaches when you are packing.

@BusbeeStyle 10 дней назад

Perfect timing! You really do learn a lot after the first big trip like that. Have an amazing time in Denmark and Sweden, Anne!! xo

@deborahmichele 10 дней назад

Great tips, Erin!! I packed a carry on for a week in Italy last year and I learned a lot about what to bring/not to bring next time! My biggest wins were a white linen button down from Quince, and a navy, polyester t-back, knee length dress that looks amazing on me, didn't show dirt, and was able to be rinsed out and would dry. One of the worst was actually a cream linen dress which looked grungy after I wore it once and (unlike the Quince blouse), still looked like hell after being washed in the sink (it needed an iron). My biggest dilemma is what to do with my hair next time: After I wear a hat, it looks AWFUL; to the point, last year, that I started wearing my hat back on my head (not shielding my face - Eek !) so I wouldn't feel hideous when I took my hat off! I will definitely keep your tips in mind for my next trip! Happy to see you posting a video! I was just thinking the other day that of the several fashion influences I watch, you have been THE MOST helpful in actually helping me to understand (like the lightbulb came on!) HOW to put a wardrobe together. Thank you!! ♥

Nothing is better than the MZ Wallace for your second bag - trust me it holds as much as my first bag and has been all over the world and fits under every seat. And always looks great.

HAIR CARE...so I learned another hack from traveltipsbylaurie...we don't wash hair daily so pack a few contact lense containers with a squirt of shampoo on one side and conditioner on the other...works for styling creams and gels too, anything with viscosity.

Really helpful travel tips Erin! I used to be an over packer but a few years ago, after struggling with mid sized luggage on trains on Europe, we decided to go carryon only, and after two successful trips with that system, I can attest that it’s worth it! Much less hassle, I had enough for a three week trip to several different cities just by hand washing some tops and undies along the way, three pairs of shoes is perfect, and travel size toiletries including bar soaps were great. I also pack a small backpack that qualifies as a personal item (and I pack my purse inside) and those two pieces held everything. It’s very freeing to plan your wardrobe and live with that for your trip. Scarves and accessories help change things up. Lastly, I’ve learned to pack a cashmere cardigan and scarf to layer with when you need some extra warmth. I travelled on airlines that have carry on dimensions but no weight restrictions, and I’m not sure what I’d do if they weighed my bags. That’s another challenge!

@marykaren7542 10 дней назад

We went to Italy for 2 weeks in February with lots of train rides from city to city. ITA has a smaller carry-on size regulation, so I packed for that trip in a tiny carry-on and one of those backpacks that zips open like a suitcase. Compression bags helped. Leaving Friday for the Abacos in Bahamas. That trip will be a small bag with swim suits, coverups, a big floppy hat and a couple of sundresses. Easy Peasy.

@carolyn8320 10 дней назад

My daughter and I traveled to Scotland last November/ December for over 5 weeks . We switched Airbnb’s 4× , 4 different towns/ villages each with a carry-on + weekender type bags and we dressed well! Totally doable, no overpacking. I found shampoo and conditioner bars that I absolutely love and travel with those, I also bring unscented dissolvable washing machine “papers”. I agree no need for blow dryers or other hair accessories. They always have a blow dryer and other things can be figured out. Definitely a challenge, but also a competitive, who can do it best and do it well, fun!

Hi Erin, Carry on girl here! I also bought some compression cubes last year for a 3 week trip to your country (I'm from Europe) and they were very helful. But thanks to your vid, I can improve my packing skills even further and will put my small pieces in the free spaces the next time. Thank you.

@juliannetrinh1999 10 дней назад

A few years ago, I tried carry-on only on a two week Europe trip. Never again! I was so stressed out during packing, at airports where sometimes they weigh your suitcase, trying to find room to fit souvenirs, getting some food items confiscated because there was some liquid in them (olive oil in antipasto in Venice). I had so much anxiety just trying to save some time, it’s not worth it. Sorry Erin 😅

@BusbeeStyle 10 дней назад

Thank you so much for not making us feel a failure because we don't pack instagrammable carry on cases with everything in a matching beige pouch or packing cube. Absolutely crucial to fill all the little crevices with bits and pieces. I do struggle with bringing my hanging toiletry bag and have tried other smaller pouches but it lies flat on top of all my other stuff and I have all toiletries in one place, I'll keep experimenting though. Thank you for a great vlog, the one that you did a few years ago was invaluable too. x

I've never done carry on only. I always overpack lol. Especially shoes! Just got back from 2 weeks in France and probably could have packed differently but I wanted options for everything. And we were on a tour so they took care of our luggage everywhere so that was awesome. Because my home life is so casual in Florida I love to dress up when I travel. All the jewelry shoes bags etc. I'm hopeless :) Next trip is Spain in October. Never been there. 3 cities in 10 days. So will definitely have to be more strategic in packing! Will check out your lists definitely for that trip. Love all your videos ❤

Keep in mind that toiletries sized items can be a months worth of product sometimes. I use tiny containers for several of my skin care products. Try it at home so you know how much you use in a week then add a little extra just in case you get stuck somewhere during hurricane season.

Hi Erin! Going from Sweden to northern France for a week, this summer! We’re going by coach and stopping (to sleep) once on the way down to France. We 2 adults are quite used to traveling and minimize our packing very hard! Linnen and cotton pants are breathable and comfy, different tops/shirts also in linnen/cotton. Two or three pairs of shoes and one pair of flipp flopps to wear on the bus/plane! The flip flops are good to stroll around at your hotelroom! I always bring a straw hat in the summer! 👒 My own shade/parasoll! 🏖 Earplugs are also a must have! Night mask to cover your eyes in cotton so it breathes! (Compression stocknings for long distence flights! ✈️ You don’t want swollen feet that doesn’t fit your shoes anylonger afterwards!) This is all I can come up with right now… Thank you for sharing your experiences with us! Bye from 🇸🇪🌦🌻

Great video Erin! I’m impressed that you always look so stylish on your trips. I agree that 3 shoe limit and picking a neutral color scheme is key - I like to add a pop of color (favorite summer combo is navy + white with aqua or lime). My downfall for light packing is shopping on vacation.

@ES-hc8bm 8 дней назад

Great suggestions! Many I use, but I finally had to give on hair tools for European vacations. We stay at high end hotels, and I have learned none of them have a high end hairdryer. NONE! I only wash my hair every 3 - 4 days, so on a European trip a wash and dry will be needed. Besides the hairdryers in hotels being cheap, and you will fry your hair using it, the hotels in Europe must have some rule on the power switch not just being turn on and it goes. You actually have to hold the button in the on position. This is nearly impossible when you are round brushing your blowout. I have even had my husband hold the dryer! Sooo, last time in Italy I bought a lightweight high end dryer that is now a must in my suitcase. 😊

I’ve packed with a carry-on and personal item bag for years now. It means being really mindful. Going on a Rhine cruise in a few days and color palate is black, tan, and cream/white. 3 shoes. Walking sneakers, shoes for the ship, and black pointy heeled flats for 2 fancy events. The older I get ( now 62 ) the easier I want my hair style. Compression bags are a must and so is an AirTag, which comes in handy when an Intl flight says your bag is too heavy. My goal is to leave more room for purchases!

For trips when I’m on the go, I pack a bedside cube. It has everything I need next to my bed eg lip balm, kindle, glasses etc. Saves so much time when I arrive in each location, I don’t have to spend fiddly minutes retrieving everything from everywhere. Also good in the morning when my room is going to be serviced, I just pop everything in there so they don’t’t get mixed up in any room servicing activities.

I want to share a bad experience with you guys. My husband and I took a tour to Egypt/Dubai/Abu-Dhabi this year (18 days) and we packed EVERYTHING in our check-in luggages; when we arrived in Cairo my 2 suitcases didn’t arrive, they were lost for 7 days. The stress and the frustration that we experienced were immense especially because we didn’t speak the language. We had to buy pretty much everything including a carry on luggage which was an extra expense. We travelled with that carry on luggage for those 7 days which made me realized that I always over pack and that I can travel with few pieces and mix & match them to get more outfits. From now on for long trips, I am going to pack 3 outfits and my essentials in a carry on just in case my check-in luggage is lost again.

Always love your travel videos Erin, thank you. As an American living in Australia I learned the hard way that American carry ons are larger than the non-US flights allow. It would be very difficult for me to pack for 2 weeks with only 7kg total (including the case) Also, bag dimensions are typically smaller. Bag size max is 56cm long + 36cm wide + 23cm deep - I learned this one the hard way in Dubai 😢 and had to take a LOT out and try to wear as much as I could.

I’ve just returned from a three-week trip to Scotland. My partner and I stayed in eight cities in that time. We took only carry-on. The only problem was that sometimes, when I rinsed my underthings at night, they weren’t dry in the morning. ( I guess the rainy days were the cause.) However, I seemed to have incorporated most of your tips without knowing them from your video. The packing cubes are definitely on my list for the next trip. So, I thank you. Oh- not every hotel had conditioner. Some had that two-in-one, or even three-in-one one the bathroom wall. I’m brining my own next time.

Thanks for the advice. I like to pack my clothes early and then remove a third since historically I never wear everything I pack. Also, refillable travel size toiletries of products I love are totally worth it. I’ve wasted too much product because a label has slipped off or faded. Those cute small generic containers with lotions/serums I swore I’d never forget are totally forgotten 2 weeks after my return and useless.

@BusbeeStyle 4 дня назад

If it is clear you aren't going to have space to bring anything home, you can bring a packable duffle bag, use the duffle as your carry-on when you return home, and check your carry-on suitcase with your extra items in it. It's generally less of an issue to check the bag coming back home. I've also not packed a duffle a time or two and just purchased one on vacation as well. Here's an idea of a packable duffle bag that would take up a small space in your bag but hold enough to work great! rstyle.me/+3xm8t4VxVIqIvl4rb47avw

PS: I actually decanted most of my liquids into plastic "travel pouches" I purchased on Amazon (mind were from Guxacu store). They are like a flat bag that expands when you pour a liquid in, and they have a screw top that pops open to reveal a tiny pour spout. Kept enough shampoo for two weeks, and NO leaking! Not green, :( but they worked FANTASTICALLY.

I love the suitcase expansion as a “compression cube” tip. Genius! Do you find that the Beis carry on is compatible with the size regulations for most international airlines if not expanded? I have heard mixed experiences…

@Good_energy_50 4 дня назад

As someone who travels a lot these are some great tips. I especially agree with the fact you need to use every bit of space carefully. Stuff your shoes with socks if you can. I live in Europe and one thing I always see are tourists who don’t understand the overhead locker space issues on inter Europe flights. This is very different to long haul flying. You want to stand in the queue early and get on that flight as early as possible. Airlines like Lufthansa are a true flight for space. I also see people book discount carriers for these short flights and you have no hope of ever being allowed two pieces of luggage onboard an airline like east jet. Do your research in advance and book accordingly!!

@melpomene65 9 дней назад

Hi Erin I just wonder dont you have shoe bags? You put the shoes without protection in your luggage?

@BusbeeStyle 4 дня назад

You can absolutely use a shoe bag... I don't so that I can easily fit them into tighter spaces separately. I put them in with the soles up, away from my clothes. In a shoe bag you just have less flexibility in where to pack them. Thanks for watching. xo

Good timing! Two travel questions as I’m watching the video came to mind. 1. I’m going with family of 4 to Greece for 3 weeks, 4 hotels, so far first 12 nights those 2 hotels do not have laundry facility at the hotel for guests to use. Any advice as with the heat and sweating it’s harder to rewear tops, definitely cannot rewear athletic wear and undergarments. How do I avoid packing 3x what I would if I had laundry capability? 2. Why is a good daytime show for max comfort, breathability, but also not tourist looking with mesh athletic running shoes? Thanks! Been using your inspo videos to pickup some less costly but on trend pieces to enjoy being more fashionable and updated on vacation.

@mmemiel9795 10 дней назад

Hello, I would recommend clothing from natural fibers like linnen (best for the heat) and cotton. They reduce sweating compared to artificial fibers and you can hang them out in the fresh air, so you don't need to wash after each wear. And your underwear can be washed by hand and will dry quickly in the heat.

@BusbeeStyle 10 дней назад

Packing fabrics that dry FAST (Lightweight, thinner, breathable) will be super helpful. You can wash by hand in the sink - just don't plan on wearing that item the next day in case it's not quite dry yet. But a hair dryer can help speed up drying in a pinch. For sneakers... here's some ideas for you to check out!

Totally agree about the hair care--used to take all the stuff (plus the adapters of course) and now I don't even use those things at home! For medium to long hair, braiding or french-braiding at night while damp is a great trick. For me, cleansing and moisturizing products are hardest because my skin is sensitive--it's hard to pack 'enough' clean product for longer trips in 3oz containers. I'm open to suggestions, but I've found that at least for shampoo/conditioner the Everist brand has very clean ingredients in tiny little packages because they've taken out all the water in their formulations. Does anyone know if the contact lenses that are disposable (dailies) 'count' as liquids? Or can they go with 'medications'?

We don’t have a closet specific company in our area so I designed the layout and had custom cabinet maker execute. The drawback to that is - you don’t have all the inserts for the drawers. I also have SO many windows so that limited the amount of cabinets and hanging space.

How about weight on your carry-on? Some airlines limit weight on carry-on to 10lbs.

I do sometimes run into this on inter-country flights outside the USA. I always check the website ahead of arrival to the airport. For those, I pull out the necessities (what I cannot be without if the bag gets lost) and let them check the bag.

@BusbeeStyle 4 дня назад

Wow! I've never run into this... 10 lbs would be tough. Just double check your particular airline's requirements of course. But I would likely have to check a bag in that case. xo

@BusbeeStyle 10 дней назад

While there can be weight restrictions in certain countries, I haven't ever been asked to weigh my bag...except on small private planes where we knew the restrictions before leaving home and the luggage requirements were very clear. There is a smaller sized carry-on in this luggage set as well, but this larger carry-on meets the TSA requirements for size. When you're traveling internationally, definitely check your specific airline's restrictions for everything first! xo

This was a huge packing challenge for me when we traveled to South Africa last spring!

I'm going to Botswana in less than 3 weeks! 🐘Super excited but also stressed about packing. We have a limit of 26 lbs (12 kg), so that makes it a bit of a challenge, but we will manage 😆Have rewatched your Africa video several times. I wondered about bringing whites as a lot of guides mention that it's a bad idea. Did you have any issues with suncreen stains etc?

I hope that video is helpful for you as you prepare for your trip! The weight limit is definitely a challenge... If you do wear white, I'd opt for a light layer over it still. I think I wore more creams/tans and wore a jacket over any white tops that I did pack. I didn't have any staining issues though. Have an AMAZING trip!! xo

Hmm, so how do we we get our hair looking good while traveling when we don’t bring anything and they don’t offer the same ability to dry out hair that we have in the states. Their hairdryers are weak and you have to press the button while using, makes it difficult to style hair. What about a packing a purse? What about the all the wrinkle clothes from being folded and compressed and they don’t have an iron? All things I am experiencing while currently in Europe staying in 4 star hotels.

@ES-hc8bm 8 дней назад

Totally get you on the hairdryer! There must be an EU rule on the hairdryers in hotels having a hold to on switch. It’s impossible. Europe does have some of the best hairdryers. I bought a lightweight Parlux Alyon Gold last time I was in Italy. It now is a necessity I pack for all trips to Europe.

@BusbeeStyle 6 дней назад

Bring your round brush and blow it out. I know the dryers aren’t always ideal, though. With carry on packing, you’ll always compromise something. If hair is super important to you, pack less clothing or toiletries. My camera is very important to me for the business so I bring that but most people are fine with an iPhone. For you it can be a travel size dryer - maybe the T3.

I am going to Europe for 4 months with my husband, 19 year old son and 11 year old daughter. We are starting in the Mediterranean, Germany, Austria, Switzerland for autumn, Christmas markets and Norway for Christmas, Scotland for New Year plus points in between. What suggestions do you have for packing for a yacht trip in early September to hunting for Northern Lights in December? I’m struggling with getting our winter wear in a carry on. I’m probably going to have to let go of the carry on only idea. I also like to shop when I travel, but I think I’m going to have to send things home periodically throughout the trip.

For this trip, I think I would check bags. Might be okay if you are staying on yacht and not moving every few days. Otherwise, I would wear all your heavy layers and boots on plane and pack rest.

@akliana 10 дней назад

I read in your blog that you take your blazer, sweater and scarf off once on the plane. Where do you store these items once you taken them off? You said that your zipper broke on your personal bag because it was stuffed full so I know you couldn’t put it in there. Where did it go? Once I got to the airport and before I boarded the plane I stuffed my coat and blazer in a compression cube that I planned to use as a pillow once I boarded, but the ticket agent stopped me and said I had too many items so I had to put everything back on. So once again I ask, where did the item you took off go?

@pjalexandra 10 дней назад

I usually take a few new clear plastic bags (about 30 litres size) in my underseat carry-on, roll up outdoor clothes and stick them in a bag once on the plane, just squish it around my 2nd under-seat bag or use as an arm-rest. That way they stay clean and I can take them out and put them on when landing. I also use that bag to put outdoor clothes in when going through security because I hate putting my nice jacket in the bin someone put their dirty shoes in.

@BusbeeStyle 10 дней назад

I did leave enough room to put my blazer into my personal bag (part of what made it too full actually), but most of the time I just left it on my lap or wore it. I run pretty cold most of the time though. Good to think about where you're going to put those "extras" beforehand! xo

One big lesson I learned is try on all your outfits before you pack them. Things might look good together on your bed but not on. Or things that looked great last year might you might not love as much. I like to shop on vacation so I bring a packable tote to hold things I buy. On the way home I check my suitcase and carry on the tote. The other thing I always travel with is a luggage scale especially to Europe. So many of those airlines have strict weight limits.
