I like to pack like items together and having them color-coded makes the easy to find what I need quickly without having to tear up my bag.

2. Luggage Strap

Carrying more than one bag can be difficult.

These luggage straps take the fear out of juggling your luggage or dropping a bag when you are in a hurry.

3. Travel Document Holder

When you are traveling overseas, you are going to need to keep all your travel documents safe and organized.

This travel document holder can fit your Kindle, passport, tickets, and all other travel papers you might need to access quickly..

4. Shampoo & Conditioner Bars

When it comes to traveling with shampoo, the one thing I will tell you is to avoid liquids. Shampoo bars are a great alternative because they last forever and won’t leak in your luggage!

One of my favorite travel accessories for women is this shampoo bar that comes in a convenient travel tin!

5. Kindle Fire

A Kindle Fire is more than just for reading books.

No products found.

You can store documents, send emails, watch movies and play games. They are lightweight and easy to pack.

6. Backpack for Day Travel

The best bag for carrying all your gear for a trip seeing all the sites is a backpack so that your hands are free.

No products found.

Choose one that is lightweight, but also tamper-resistant. We think the Travelon Active Tour bag is just the right size for women.

7. Travel Towel

One item you might not know you need until you need it is a travel towel.

Travel towels are great for a number of things. You might use them on a trip to the beach, a visit to a thermal spa or even if you have to spend the night at the airport due to an unexpected layover.

No products found.

Choose one that is microfiber and lightweight. We love this travel towel that you can pack in a convenient bag (that doesn’t take much room in your luggage!).

8. Hanging Toiletry Bag

Do yourself a favor and get a toiletry bag that can be hung instead of having to sit on a counter.

No products found.

Counterspace is pretty valuable and having a bag that can be attached to a towel holder will keep all the items you need close by without having to worry about taking up space.

9. Scarf

Bring a scarf that can be used in a few different ways.

No products found.

A scarf can be worn over bare shoulders to keep an outfit acceptable when entering a church.

A scarf can be tied around the waist and fashioned into a sarong when going to the beach. While on the place you can use the scarf as a blanket.

10. Crossbody Bag

There are going to be times when you won’t need to carry your backpack, but still need to make sure you have what you need. Use a small crossbody bag that is travel-safe.

No products found.

Our pick is the Travelon Anti-Theft Heritage crossbody purse. It has an RFID-blocking pocket and is slash-resistant!
