Travelista Tip for the Day {Wordless Wednesday} {Linky}

October 9, 2013 By Deb B. 24 Comments

Travel is essential in our family’s itinerary. Whether it’s to visit the extended family up north, or attending Kid’s Fashion Week back east – we are almost always finding ourselves packing, unpacking, lining up at security, or running for our lives from one gate to the next. Because of this – we have decided collectively as a family unit – to travel in style. (Coincidentally, finding our luggage at the end of the stretch is never an issue)…

Leopard Family

And with this fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants lifestyle… we have learned to roll with the punches. Quite literally.

  Thank you Elizabeth! Sets are always the best – as long as the style matches our personality. Ha!

Ooh, totally forgot about rolling clothes to keep ’em wrinkle-free. Thanks for the reminder! Sweet luggage too – it’ll definitely stand out on the carousel!

  Yes! The rolling is the only way for us! And YES – it stands out on the conveyor belt. Almost embarrassingly so… hahah!

What beautiful luggage Debbie, it is awesome! Rolling up your clothes is tried and true method I use as well!

  It is the only way to pack isn’t it? I even tend to fold my clothes in somewhat of a rolling fashion in the drawers. Makes room for more 🙂

I have heard about the rolled luggage before but never tried it. I really need to see how it works!

  Rolling is the easiest way. It’s fast to pack, and unpack, and there’s rarely the need to re-iron! Also (and most importantly), makes room for more 🙂

  Awww! Thank you! Love being organized! I’m not necessarily organized elsewhere – so I at least try during travel. Haha

Love your luggage set. Very stylish and yes, I can’t see you not being able to find everything at the baggage claim.

  Exactly. I spot our luggage set a million miles away. Helps a lot at the international gates!

  Yes – we used to have Navy Blue – and it was always such a headache looking for our luggage. That was the argument I used upon begging my husband to agree to the set. Ha!

My suitcase is usually about 75% shoes so rolling – not so much 🙂

  Hahah! It doesn’t look like it here – but I have a few more pairs of shoes as well. So I roll the clothes as seen in the picture, and in the zipper area, my shoes go in there. Yikes – as far as weight is concerned!

Great question! There are pockets on the other side of the luggage where the zippers are. There's a TON of room on both sides of the luggage because it's a hard case. However, the challenge is making sure I'm less than 50lbs! Ha!
