You booked your trip. You found a ‘grammable hotel. You ordered all your vacation outfits. The only thing left to do is pack. That’s the fun part, right? Kidding–we all dread packing. One way to reduce packing panic is to have a strategy. Today, we’re sharing the items the FLEETSTREET team swears by for a getaway. Take a peek inside our suitcases below.
Essential packing: Carry-On Luggage
Prefer to keep your luggage with you, even as you travel? Same. This carry-on makes running through the airport a total breeze with its extra quiet wheels and ultra-sturdy telescopic handle. Also, can we take a moment for the beautiful Saje colour?
Essential packing: Noise Canceling Headphones
Ever tried out-shouting plane engines with your music? Less than ideal, right? That’s where wireless headphones shine! Designed for travellers facing noise-rich environments, they’ll help you create a tranquil, cord-free bubble, no matter your surroundings. So go on, replace the cacophony with tranquillity – even at 35,000 feet in the air.
Essential packing: Compact Hair Dryer
Travelling doesn’t mean bidding farewell to fabulous hair days. The shark flex style hair dryer folds into a regular hair dryer but also can be completely straight sliding into bags easily. Delivering the power of a full-size model, this hair styling maestro is small enough to slip into your carry-on, ensuring great hair is always part of your journey.

Essential packing: A Chic Bather
We’ve all wrestled with finding the right swimwear, especially when packing for a getaway. But this cap-sleeve bikini top from Knix is a game-changer: sleek, supportive, and refreshingly different from your typical string bikini. With built-in sleeves and sculpting fabric, it’s made to move with you. Plus, it’s great for days when you’ve gotten a little too much sun and need to protect your shoulders. Love that!
Essential packing: 2-metre Charge Cord
Need we really say more? Quickly charge your phone, AirPods, or iPad with this extra-long charging cord. Plus, with this, you won’t have to avoid having to sit awkwardly on the floor next to an outlet at the airport or in the hotel waiting for check-in.
Essential Packing: Travel-Sized Skincare Duo
Let’s face it–travel isn’t always kind to your skin. Long flights, altitude changes, unfamiliar water, lack of sleep, and even forgetting to drink enough water (it happens!) can all contribute to dullness, dryness, or the dreaded travel breakout. That’s why we never leave without a few skincare staples that keep our skin in check, no matter where we land. The Instant Glow Serum and Great Skin Moisturizer minis from Merit are perfect for this. Hydrating yet lightweight, these new travel-sized companions are designed to combat dry cabin air and restore your skin’s glow without taking up precious space in your carry-on.
Essential packing: Travel Capsules
We get it, traveling can be a little chaotic. Especially when you’ve got a bag brimming with those tiny travel-sized toiletries. It’s like they’ve got a mind of their own, right? Always vanish when you need them most or worse, leak all over your clothes. Well, not anymore. Enter our game-changing magnetic capsules. These little lifesavers can house everything from your revitalizing face serums to your precious jewelry. Misplaced or leaked items can now be a thing of your travel past. Who knew organization could be so satisfying and leak-free!
Essential packing: Bucket Hat
Bucket hats have been a streetwear trend for years now. If you plan on spending the majority of your break in the sun, a bucket hat is a fashionable way to help protect you from ultraviolet (UV) rays.
Essential packing: Non-Liquid Beauty Essentials
No room for liquids? No problem. This cooling serum stick glides on like a dream—no spills, no stress. Whether you’re poolside or got a little too much sun, the refreshing gel helps soothe and hydrate on the go.
Yes, you need a facial oil: It’s part beauty booster, part brain booster.
Essential packing: Travel Sized Electrolyte Packets
Stay effortlessly refreshed on your trip by packing some electrolyte packets. These Hydralyte packets are portable, easy to use, and perfect for on-the-go. Keep the vacay vibes going with the new passion fruit flavour and start soaking up those health benefits. Plus, great if you’ve maybe drank one too many pina coladas, am I right? No more dry, dull, or fatigued skin; these electrolyte packets from Hydralite rehydrate faster than water alone!
