Being able to minimize your luggage but still carry the obligatory essentials to look elegant is every traveler’s dream. Below, are tips to travel light and dress elegantly at the same time.

Accessorize

Accessories can help change your entire outfit, making you look stylish and diverse even with the same outfit. Using the travel jewelry case can ease the burden of packaging them. Using this case, you can carry your valuable earrings and rings while keeping organized. Another advantage of wrapping your accessories together is, you can retrieve them whenever you want and can fit them in any of your briefcases.

Carry a Few Shoes

On any journey you are going, do not carry shoes in more than three pairs. For women, carry one heeled shoe for evenings’, a sneaker, and sandals. This will ensure you can get along at different events. Carrying a lot of shoes will increase your luggage, and you might not end up wearing all of them. However, for men, get a sneaker and a loafer, and you are good to go. Don’t forget to carry high-quality shoes to sustain you during your expedition. Sneakers are easy to fold and pack hence saving some space to save other accessories.
