check the weather forecast
Please remember to check the weather forecast for your destination, even though it may seem obvious. It's easy to forget about changes in weather or conditions when getting ready for a weekend trip. This is especially important during the transition seasons of spring and fall, when the weather can vary dramatically from day to day.
pack versatile pieces
The key to packing effectively is to bring pieces that can be combined and matched to create a variety of looks. You should be able to match all of your tops and bottoms. If you pack just the right items, it’s possible to create endless different outfits while keeping your suitcase nice and light.
roll your clothes
Whether you’re packing in a weekender bag or a suitcase, the best way to pack a suitcase is to roll your clothes instead of folding them to save space and prevent wrinkles.
Pro tips: If you have any delicate items to pack, such as a top with lace or embroidering, place the item using our round lingerie case. This will help protect your delicate pieces.
use packing cubes
If you choose to pack in a traditional suitcase, using packing cubes helps keep ypur items organized and maximize space you have. Our set of packing cubes will work perfectly for both weekend trips and longer trips, too!
pack heavy items on the bottom
As soon as you start packing, be sure to put your shoes and other heavy belongings in the bottom of your case to evenly distribute the weight. In addition to preventing your luggage from tumbling over, keeping the heavier stuff at the bottom of your bag will safeguard your lighter items.
leave room for souvenirs
Another benefit of packing light for a weekend trip is that you can leave room in your suitcase for any souvenirs or items you might buy during the trip.
