Nothing says amateur like struggling with an overstuffed suitcase. The sophisticated traveler moves through the world with one bag and no regrets.
The Formula: 3-2-1
Three tops, two bottoms, one dress. Everything in a cohesive color palette so every combination works. Add one layering piece (blazer or cardigan), one pair of comfortable walking shoes, and one pair for evening.
Roll, Don’t Fold
Rolling clothes prevents wrinkles and saves space. Use packing cubes to keep categories organized. Shoes go in a dust bag at the bottom of the bag. Toiletries in a separate waterproof pouch.
Wear Your Bulkiest Items
Your coat, your boots, your heaviest sweater — wear them on the plane or train. They don’t count as luggage and they’ll keep you warm in the aggressive air conditioning.
