WEST COAST KINDA GIRL

TRAVELLING ESSENTIALS + TIPS

I'll be travelling somewhere very hot soon, and it couldn't come any sooner... I'm so excited that I've already starting my packing process. Too early? Nah.

In today's post I'm going to be sharing with you my packing essentials + tips. I've travelled quite a bit in my day so I think I can share a tip or two and some advice for first-timers or for people who don't travel often.

First off, the plane. Now I know I'm not the only one who plans out their plane outfit!

I always want to stay as comfortable as possible so I usually grab my Brandy Melville go-to hoodie and some comfy Brandy shorts.If I'm going somewhere cold, i'll wear leggings or sweats. I usually just re-wear the same outfit on the way back home to save room in my suitcase (for all my bikinis). For shoes I stick with Nike slides or sneakers.

Packing tip: Roll your clothes in your suitcase don't fold them, it saves so much room!

Always pack versatile clothing pieces, keep it minimal colour + pattern so you can re-use and re-style pieces and no one will ever know!

Outfit tip: Always pack clothing pieces you can layer!

Always pack your favourite swimwear, of course! But, make sure to pack a basic triangle bather for those tanning days.

Also sunglasses, sunscreen, tanning oil and a baseball hat are key while beaching it.

Tanning tip: For tanning oil use Balibody, it really works! (read all about my Balibody experience here)

Pool/beach wear is a necessity! I always pack an easy bathing suit cover-up and slip on sandals to make going to and from the pool a whole lot easier.

Cover up tip: Your cover up will most likely get wet from the pool or your swimsuit so keep it a light and breathable fabric to it dries faster!

I hope this helped you out! I always love feedback, so if you have any questions, comments or suggestions for my next post you can contact me here!
