When travelling it can be really difficult to keep looking good on the road as there’s a limited amount of space in your luggage that sets a natural limit on how many beauty products and accessories you can take with you.
With people travelling more and more, and for longer and longer due to the trend in remote working and lifestyle travel where rather than go to a traditional college and attend in person they are migrating to digital education to advance their careers or master lean manufacturing online. The benefit being that today you can travel anywhere in the world presuming you have a laptop and internet connection yet still be productive in terms of work and education.
It can however, be hard to maintain your style standard and beauty regime whilst traveling, which is where these four suggestions can help.
SUITCASE
The first thing you need before packing for your stylish trip is something to put your items in. Choose a hard case which is easy to spot on the airport conveyor belt. If you can get away with not having to check in your luggage then make sure it conforms to airline regulations. Make sure it has a good handle and wheels that can cope with different types of surfaces. No-one likes to be dragging a case who’s wheels do not want to turn.
CAPSULE WARDROBE
A capsule wardrobe is ideally a small number of items of clothing which are easy to wash, quick to dry and easily mix and match with each other. This would mean that by using a layering technique and rotating tops with bottoms, six items of clothings could provide you more than nine outfits, which is more than enough for a week long break.
As for your shoes, make sure you take a couple of comfortable pairs as when travelling, even in the most luxurious city setting, you’ll often crave comfort after a day spend on your feet; as heels are no good when you are spending the day sightseeing. Try and choose outfits that look good with flat shoes. But depending what the reason for your trip is, bring just one pair of heels that can match all sorts of outfits from you capsule wardrobe can fit in your bag.
BEAUTY PRODUCTS
Even if you have luggage you can check in, you are not going to want to travel with full bottles of all your beauty products. However some beauty products are not available in travel size containers, but don’t despair. Purchase some mini tubs and bottles so that you can carefully decanter the products you would like to use into them, in a handy portable travel friendly delivery mechanism.
In summary, it can be hard to keep on top of your style and beauty when travelling to faraway countries but sometimes we underestimate how easy it is to find similar if not the same, brands on our travels – particularly at airport duty free shops. Meaning, there’s no need to overload your suitcase with beauty products and outfits… as it’s not like you’re going to the moon.
Until next time,

I totally agree! Love your point on a capsule wardrobe. It can get tough to stay stylish when traveling, especially when space is limited! One thing that helps me is I try to think of a colour theme or a vibe I want to go with and go from there. Depending where you go, re: beauty, they might have some super cool drugstores with new beauty brands to discover! Great post girl 🙂 xx Shannon || http://www.champagneatshannons.com
