Best Travel Gear

A super light weight suitcase that is easy to maneuver by a high quality brand. This is always my carry on when I travel for work or leisure. Cannot say enough about this luggage.

My personal item on all flights. It fits perfectly underneath the seat in front of me and has many useful pockets, there is a place for everything. Soft, not bulky and easy to maneuver over your luggage handle.

We are hooked on this bag for family trips! It is our one check-in bag if we decide that we need extra space beyond our carry-on bags. It is our go-to. This bag is durable, spacious and sturdy! A well-built bag that will last.

I have used many brands of packing cubes and they tend to tear easily at the seams and zipper. Do yourself a favor and don’t buy any packing cubes. These are built to last, high quality and durable. Each of us have our own packing cube – it usually takes 2-3 per person for 7 days of clothes. The cubes fit easily into a suitcase and do not add weight to your luggage. Help yourself stay organized. I use the big one to store dirty clothes.

This is the best makeup bag to use for travel and to easily find what you need. The only question is, “Why did I wait so long to buy one?!”

What we like most about the Yeti Hopper M20 backpack soft cooler is the fact that you can comfortably wear it on your back to carry it. This is essential when trekking through the airport with luggage, fishing rods, etc. When the Yeti Hopper arrived at our house, I immediately took it out of the box and tried it on to see how it felt. I was pleasantly surprised at how the cooler was form fitting to my back and the straps felt good on my shoulders.

We have several of these splash-prooof bags for travel. Reversible, waterproof, light weight, actually weighs nothing, and always with the cutest patterns!

We love to travel with this tent. It is compact and easily fits in our checked bag. Our Shibumi has traveled with us everywhere. We cannot say enough about it – it is light, easy to carry, and simple to set up. If you are a beach goer, you’ll need this tent!

The #1 beach bag. Easily packable in my luggage to take on all your beach vacations. It is light, mesh material and sand does not stick to the bottom. After returning from vacation, you can toss it in the wash, and it comes out as good as new. And, it is super cute!

I’ve bought this mesh beach bag three times—each in a different color—because it’s just that good. Fair warning: it has a weird smell right out of the packaging, but let it air out for a day and you’re good to go. With tons of pockets, there’s a spot for everything you’re hauling to the beach—from sunscreen to snacks to that one random toy someone had to bring. And when the day’s done, just give it a shake to ditch the sand. It’s our go-to beach bag for the whole family!

This always comes in handy before we take off for the airport, to ensure checked bags are under 50 lbs. It has saved us many times from getting to the airport and having to re-arrange luggage contents at the ticket counter. Weight has always been accurate. Simple and reduces stress level.

Another must-have portable phone charger that easily slips into your purse or travel bag. My kids love these—they toss them in their backpacks before we even leave for the airport. Bonus: they come in super cute colors, so no one’s fighting over whose is whose!

Between my phone, laptop, AirPods, speaker, and camera, we’ve got a lot of devices to keep charged—just like you, I’m sure. This compact case keeps all our cords and chargers organized in one place and zips up neatly for easy packing. Total game-changer for travel days!

I’m always picking up these cords to make sure we have plenty while traveling.

We love this charging station for keeping all our portable chargers powered up. Hotel rooms rarely have enough outlets for everything—especially when you’re trying to charge multiple devices overnight. This little setup solves that problem perfectly!

I discovered this sunscreen recently in Key West at Saltwater Angler. Now, it is a go-to for us when we go on vacation, pool, beach, etc. And it is reef safe, so that very important for me. It goes on CLEAR with not much of a scent and no greasy feel, which my children love. This can be hard to find, so I’ve been buying it directly from Amazon.

Medicine and prescription bottles can take up way too much space, but this cute, compact case lets me keep everything in one spot—easy to pack, easy to find when I need it!

I’ve collected my share of international adapters over the years, but this one does it all in one compact design. It features two standard plugs and two USB ports, so you can charge up to four devices at once—and it comes with interchangeable plugs for different countries. I usually pack two, so the kids have one for their gadgets too. Just a heads-up: this is a plug adapter only, not a voltage converter. If you need voltage conversion, I recommend going with this one .

This silicone brush case is a great addition to my travel essentials list, and I am hooked!  Protect your makeup brushes by keeping them separated from the rest of your makeup – they’ll stay clean with no ruined bristles in this cute compact case that fits in the nook of any bag.

You never really know what you’re walking into when it comes to hotel or Airbnb lighting—and mirrors are hit or miss. This compact light-up mirror has been a total lifesaver, giving us the perfect lighting wherever we’re getting ready. We use it all the time when traveling for my daughter’s dance competitions too. It never lets us down!

I’ve tested my fair share of hat clips over the years—and let’s be honest, most magnetic ones either can’t hold a hat to save their life or come with a price tag that’s hard to justify. This one hits the sweet spot: affordable, reliable, and makes it super easy to pack multiple hats without squishing them. Total win!

These TSA-approved bottles are a travel must! The wide mouth makes them easy to fill without the usual mess, and the soft silicone lets you squeeze out every last drop—no product (or patience) wasted!

The cutest travel bag and bottles—my daughter absolutely loves these and uses them every time we travel!

These are perfect for packing face soap, moisturizers, foundation, and any other creams you need on your travels. I use these every trip!

We’re a family that needs white noise to sleep—no fan, no sleep! This compact speaker is a total game-changer for us. I simply turn on the fan app on my iPhone, connect it to the speaker, and voilà—instant white noise. It’s a speaker and a noise machine all in one, and it travels with us everywhere.

These are the earbuds I always pick up for my kids—they’re their go-to for everything! They’re budget-friendly, perform well, and the best part? I don’t have to panic when they “lose” them the night before a flight!

My kids swear by this neck pillow when we’re traveling internationally—it’s their must-have for long flights!

I never leave for international travel without this—it makes sleeping on long flights so much easier and more comfortable!

A friend recommended this stain remover bar, and now we’re hooked on Ethique! We bring it along on every trip to help us pack light with just a carry-on. It’s perfect for hand washing clothes in the hotel sink and hanging them to dry. And don’t forget to try Ethique’s Shampoo and Conditioner Bars—my hair feels amazing even after long travels!

My daughter and I swear by these washcloths and never travel without them. You never really know where hotel washcloths have been, so we use these to wash our faces and bodies while on the go.

Always prioritize safety when sleeping in an unfamiliar location—this carbon monoxide detector gives you peace of mind, no matter where you are.

Once we’ve arrived at our destination, this bag is perfect for sightseeing.

Cute and compact, this is easy to toss in your beach bag and take with you to the sand.

Cute and affordable, especially since you don’t wear it for long!

We take them on every vacation and always toss them in our travel cooler for the plane ride.

When heading to a cold destination, these always make it into our travel bags.

We always bring this along on our summer vacations to stay cool.

This is a must to ensure we don’t lose our bag when checking it.

Definitely a must-have travel essential. These AirPod Pros are so much better! The noise canceling is amazing and sound quality is great. If you have not upgraded your earbuds yet, these are worth it!
