With three-day weekends on the (slightly distant, but just<\/em> within reach) horizon, now\u2019s the perfect time to plan your inaugural summer getaway. Before you do, it\u2019s time to make a silent promise to yourself. Chaotic carry-on and stressful pre-flight deliberations, no more\u2014this is the season you streamline your packing routine. It\u2019s far more enjoyable to book a last-minute weekend trip<\/a> when you have the art of squeezing a travel wardrobe into a roller bag<\/a> down to a science.<\/p>\n Suffice it to say, Vogue<\/em> editors have logged enough time on the go to qualify as seasoned pros\u2014and with those miles, a series of tried-and-true packing tips.<\/p>\n Parallelle The Large check-in toiletry kit<\/p>\n Jump to review<\/a><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Whether it\u2019s deciphering what goes into a travel capsule wardrobe<\/a>, making the most of every available inch in your suitcase<\/a>, or finding a deceptively spacious personal item<\/a> for the plane, our team has opinions. (Rolling or folding? Team travel steamer or team hoping for the best?) And then there are the travel essentials<\/a> our editors rarely travel without\u2014from skincare that fights post-flight dullness to the chic toiletry bags<\/a> that store it all.<\/p>\n Without further ado, read on for the Vogue<\/em> editor\u2019s guide to packing for a warm-weather adventure.<\/p>\n Is it weird that I love packing? I\u2019m not talking about the outfit planning (that\u2019s stressful), but the actual physical act of it: the fitting, the folding, the rolling\u2014it\u2019s like a game of Tetris. Almost everything goes in some kind of designated pouch, especially shoes. They must be stuffed with socks and wrapped in paper before going in their individual cloth dust bags\u2014they cannot touch my clothes! I never travel anywhere without my Alex Mill tote, it\u2019s one giant nesting doll. On any given trip, it\u2019s carrying my lunch, a handbag I can\u2019t fold flat, my ski helmet, all my jewelry (stored in its pouch, of course), and possibly extra shoes I couldn\u2019t fit in my carry-on. I am one of those [insert your own adjective] people who likes to workout on vacation, so I always have to leave room for my running shoes somewhere\u2026<\/p>\nVogue<\/em> Editors\u2019 Go-To Packing Essentials<\/h2>\n
