It's Ann; welcome back to my channel.

We are going to do some packing and organizing.

I just realized, like, looking through my playlist of stuff, that I really enjoy making travel videos.

Like, I just... I love travel videos.

I think it just makes me look forward to going somewhere and also organizing.

I feel like every time I go on a trip, my packing has gotten better, so, you guys are definitely going to find this video helpful.

And if you want to share anything with me or anybody else watching, make sure to leave a comment or leave your suggestions on the bottom of this video.

So, let's get started.

First, I want to show you the organizers I use that help me hold all my essentials.

I will make sure to add links of where I bought all these items from below this video.

To hold all my clothing, I found these cubes in three different sizes.

The set also comes with a shoe bag, an all-purpose bag to hold your essentials, a laundry bag for your clothing and undergarments, and lastly, a little accessory bag.

I bought two extra waterproof shoe bags, a new toiletry bag, and lastly, a makeup pouch⏤you'll be so surprised how much this can hold.

Alright, so, it's time to pack.

I like to start with the bottoms because they're typically more bulky.

So, I often like to also mix and match a lot, and when I select my pieces, I make sure that they're versatile in design.

For casual outfits, I'm packing a pair of relaxed jeans, a flowy skirt for when I'm feeling whimsical,

a tailored pants for those put-together days, leggings for comfort, and shorts on hot days.

Having a hoodie is a must for me, just in case I feel chilly⏤indoors or outdoors.

It's always good to pack something cozy just in case.

When it comes to packing, I like to start with the heavier pieces, and then I go in with the lighter pieces that are easy to squeeze in-between small spaces.

For this second clothing bag, we're going to pack a dress, a romper, two tank tops, and four T-shirts.

If you want to maximize your outfit options without over packing, choose lighter weight clothing that can easily roll up.

Also, select versatile colors and prints that you can coordinate with your bottoms.

It's amazing how many outfit options I can pack into these two cubes.

After I roll everything, I'm now going to put it into my bag, and I'm putting the romper in as the last item because it's a weird shape.

A feature that I really love about these bags is that they come with buckles to prevent your clothes from unraveling.

Moving on to bag number three; this is where I store my sleeping clothes, underwear, socks, and swimsuit.

All the items that I'm showing you are just the basic, general items that you can bring with you.

But, of course, can improvise and pack other things depending on your trip.

For instance, if you're traveling during the wintertime, you can pack an extra sweater instead of a swimsuit.

Step four for packing essentials are shoes.

Depending on where you will be going and what you will be doing, think about the shoes that you want to bring with you.

Do you want to bring hiking boots, flats for you to switch into if your sneakers feel uncomfortable, or high heels when you feel like you want to dress up for a night out?

I like to bring a couple of different shoes with me just in case my feet swell up while walking⏤I can always switch into another pair.

Aside from that, having more variety can give you more options when it comes to mixing and matching your outfits.

I needed to upgrade to a smaller and more compact toiletry bag.

The last one I had was double the size of this one.

I ended up packing things that I didn't really need and it just made my bag heavier.

This bag actually holds a lot more than I thought it could.

Now I don't have to scramble, looking for things⏤everything I need, all my essentials are in here.

Number six on my list of things to pack: hair tools and an emergency kit.

Over on your right, I am packing my curling iron, a brush, and also a body brush.

A couple of other hair products that I am not packing with my hair bag is my gel and heat-protective spray, which I usually store with my other beauty products.

Over on the left, I'm packing other necessities that I will probably need on the trip.

You should definitely set a bag aside for your emergency first-aid kit or any other necessities you probably will need.

It drives me crazy whenever I go on a trip and I forgot something, then I would have to go to different stores and look for these items.

So, this definitely saves money and time.

Number seven is a combination of fashion and power accessories.

This can be your electronics or whatever it is⏤I like to just keep them together in one compartment.

The headphones will most likely move into my carry-on bag, but for now, I'm just putting this in here.

Other items that I'm going to fit into here is my hard drive and extension cord.

I'm really excited about using this new makeup bag.

It can also be used as a toiletry bag.

It comes with a smaller zip bag inside, where you can store small items.

The way I use this is that I just flip the top down, and then I place all the bigger, bulkier items in the middle.

After that, I would place my makeup brushes, my lip gloss in the inside pocket.

The reason why I like this bag so much is that all your makeup is in one compartment, and you can place this on top of the table where you can see everything you need in front of you.

To close this up, all you have to do is flip the bag up and pull the string.

Okay, we're all done.

Now let's pack everything together.

This is a medium-sized luggage I am using here.

I'm going to start with the large and medium cube, followed by the toiletry bag on the side.

The smaller cube bag is going on top of the medium, and then the laundry bag is going on top of the larger cube.

Over on your left, I'm placing the shoe bags, accessory bag, hair bag, makeup bag, and then, I'm going to buckle and zip everything together inside the luggage.

Alright, so we have about two weeks' worth of clothing that you can mix and match style into different outfits.

I'm really happy with this whole new method of packing.

I feel like it's going to make my travels so much easier.

Sometimes, when you have things all over the place, it just feels overwhelming.

So, by simplifying your life and just packing the essentials you need for a trip can really make a huge difference to your overall experience.
