Holiday Travel Inspiration

Traveling during the holidays can be hectic, but it doesn’t always have to be. Remember to book flights in advance and try to take afternoon flights to avoid long lines and delays.  To ensure a smooth flight, also check out some of my travel necessities I always bring along when I go home for the holidays.

• Make sure to write down everything so you don’t forget anything important before you go.  Here’s a great personal organizer from Kate Spade for all of your last minute thoughts.
• Since it’s a hassle to check bags, I always try to get small gifts like these great earrings at Bloomingdales to save space.
• Another light and cute gift can be a set of personalized stationary, like these cute airplane cards from Cardstore.com.
• Look for a good travel bag that isn’t too big for carry-on and can fit under the seat by your feet (in case they run out of room in the cabin).  Here are just some of the many travel bags in different colors and prints at Longchamp.
• Pack blouses that can work for both dressy and casual occasions, like this festive top from Anthropologie.
• Finally, for ear pressure, don’t forget a pack of gum, a bottle of water, and straws to drink out of to equalize the pressure.
