Packing is no joke! For most of us, packing a suitcase is the epitome of Judgement Day. Think of it as a struggle between trying to fit what you’ll actually need, and everything else you think you may wear during those 4 days.

With the trip already booked, there’s no sense in spending an additional $150 just for a piece of luggage that’ll be tossed around and end up spending its days in a dark hotel room. Thankfully, Netflix gave us Japanese, packing guru Marie Kondo, who will be our saviour in fitting at least a weeks’ worth of looks into a standard carry-on for a 4-day weekend turn up. While packing it’s important to remember; advance weather check-ins, planned outfits, folding your clothes versus rolling them, compartmentalization, and lastly leaving space for things you’ll buy on the trip. 

In the words of famous drag queen superstar Chi Chi DeVayne “I don’t get ready, I stay ready” —  Our quick picks will have you always ready to experience a trip in no time.
