How to Pack Like a Pro

The Susan Padron Podcast

In this episode, I share my insights into the perpetual stress of packing for a trip, drawing from my frequent experiences helping personal styling clients prepare for their travels. We explore the delicate balance between the desire for wardrobe options and the necessity of packing efficiently, considering factors like limited space, weight restrictions, and the anxiety of lost luggage. I address specific packing challenges, such as the tendency to overpack underwear and unnecessary gym attire, offering practical advice to optimize precious suitcase real estate. I underscore the significance of versatility and introduce the idea of treating your vacation wardrobe as a capsule wardrobe. My approach involves a pre-trip dress rehearsal for each outfit, ensuring seamless coordination and eliminating last-minute wardrobe uncertainties.
