Summer is right around the corner. That being said, I bet most of you are already planning your summer vacation. So where are you headed this year? Are you ready with all the travel essentials that you must have? Here are some ideas in case you are thinking of what else you need.
We already have some of these items and highly recommended them. Some I still am planning to purchase.
When it comes to backpacks, SwissGear has been our favorite brand. This is actually the second SwissGear backpack that my son owns and he always has it with him when he travels. We like the many compartments and pockets in this backpack. My laptop perfectly fits in it too.
2. Toiletry Bag with Hanging Hook
I have the red one and I like all the things that it can hold.
My son has this one and he likes it a lot too.
I have the same set but minus the design. I got it from HomeGoods years back and have never failed to use it in our travels. Some of the zippers are already damaged so I need a new set and I’m eyeing this one.
5. Stainless Steel Water Bottle
I have the gold color and it’s actually my second purchase. I had to get another one after I left my first one at Chicago O’Hare airport in 2018.
6. Shoe Bags
I used to just pack our slippers or shoes in grocery bags. LOL. Then I came across this and it was such a great purchase. I like that there’s a clear part in the bag where you can see what’s inside.
A must-have for any woman. 🙂 I have a smaller mirror and I’d like a bigger one. I think this would be perfect. Not to mention, it has LED lighting. How about that?
There you have it. Happy shopping!

These are some great travel essentials; I haven’t traveled in a long time, but I would love to have some of these items on hand when I do. I really like the shoe bag
Tara Pittman says
I need those shoe bags. These would be very useful for my packing.

Very helpful, and really the metal water bottle or any reusable water bottle is such a useful tip and makes it easier to hydrate on the go!
Melissa says
I have so many of these. Can’t leave home without the water bottle and now I need a travel led makeup light.
katie C says
A water bottle is always my #1 travel essential! I love that so many airports have water bottle fountains now

These are very helpful tips when you are considering traveling. Don’t forget the water bottle, that is one thing i always forget.

Loads of great travel essentials there. I need a new mirror and a travel mirror. Those do come in handy.
Beth says
Having the right accessories makes traveling much easier. We love our stainless steel water bottles. I could use that hanging toiletry bag.
Catalina says
Now that the travel season is on, these items are perfect!

So many useful things to have for travel! We do a lot of traveling and I will have to grab some of these.
