If You're Going on a Fall Trip, These 29 Items Will Make Packing Easier
Summer trips are lovely, but I tend to find that fall trips are the most magical trips of the year. The air is crisp, we're still excited to be wearing cozy clothes, and the scenery is lovely. That being said, fall is also a typically busy time of year, and I, for one, am always finding myself in a rush when I need to pack for a trip. Having the right essentials on hand makes this easier, so I made a shopping list of travel-friendly items for fall trips. I can say from experience that having great versatile pieces on hand truly makes packing easier.
Below, you'll find clothing and accessories that are great for the airport, trekking around the city, going out to dinner, or just lounging in the Airbnb. And if you don't have any trips planned, I'd still recommend many of these easy items for staying local. Scroll to shop my selections before things inevitably get busy.
