\u00a0I never knew how much I&#8217;d like\u00a0having such a small detail.<\/p>\n<p>.03 | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.loandsons.com\/the-pearl\" target=\"_blank\">Cross-Body Bag<\/a><br \/>\nI wear this bag everyday\u00a0and it happens to be what I also prefer for\u00a0travel. \u00a0It&#8217;s small enough to not be annoying but big enough to fit essentials and a little more. \u00a0The zipper compartments\u00a0divide the whole thing into three sections, which keeps things way more organized than any other compact bag I&#8217;ve had, it&#8217;s fantastic.<\/p>\n<p>.04 | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B016CMD9MU\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B016CMD9MU&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=hoohmy-20&amp;linkId=2a907aa64089e4208277f4113fb48be1\" target=\"_blank\">Water Bottle<\/a><br \/>\nThis\u00a0is a design + function dream. \u00a0The slim shape makes it really easy to carry around without adding bulk to a bag oh and hey, it fits perfectly into the middle compartment of the cross-body bag, how nice! \u00a0I also carry this around almost everyday. \u00a0It has saved me during many parched emergencies.<\/p>\n<p>.05 | <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/n\/bwhczmb6uzf\" target=\"_blank\">Amenity Kit<\/a><br \/>\nA really bomb non-oily day cream, hand cream, and lip balm set that&#8217;s compact and easy to travel with. \u00a0My favorite is the vanilla and watermelon lip balm SMELLS SO GOOD.<\/p>\n<p>.06 | <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/n\/bwhc49b6uzf\" target=\"_blank\">Makeup Remover<\/a><br \/>\nBecause this remover is a no-rinse micellar cleanser that works <em>so<\/em> well, I don&#8217;t find it necessary to use face wash after (the toner I use after takes care of any residue), which is one less thing to pack and less is always good. \u00a0This one&#8217;s a cute travel size, even better.<\/p>\n<p>.07 | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B012DZFSQK\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B012DZFSQK&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=hoohmy-20&amp;linkId=524f702102b0565ec6b90f7b5a110fff\" target=\"_blank\">Clear Quart Bag<\/a><br \/>\nI&#8217;m done carrying liquids in cute bags that will get ruined if something leaks. \u00a0I use this bag for toiletries\/skincare products, which is nice that it&#8217;s see-through so I can easily find\u00a0what&#8217;s inside, plus it&#8217;s also TSA compliant.<\/p>\n<p>.08 | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B015S59XAY\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B015S59XAY&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=hoohmy-20&amp;linkId=8599aef54db0aed9acc8028770820a9d\" target=\"_blank\">Clear Makeup Bag<\/a><br \/>\nI&#8217;m done carrying makeup in cute bags that will get ruined if something leaks or powders break. \u00a0This one&#8217;s larger than the previous quart bag and the way it zips open makes it really convenient to sift through everything inside like it&#8217;s all in a tray.<\/p>\n<p>.09 | <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/n\/bwhdk6b6uzf\" target=\"_blank\">Leather Pouch<\/a><br \/>\nThis is an example of a cute\u00a0bag I won&#8217;t use for previous purposes. \u00a0I&#8217;ll use this for things like chargers, headphones, and any knick-knacks I might need quick access to. \u00a0I also fantasize about how if I needed it to, this could convert into a clutch. \u00a0All about\u00a0that dual purpose. \u00a0I need to mention as well that this nude-y pink is my everything lately.<\/p>\n<p>.10 | <a href=\"http:\/\/rstyle.me\/~8HxhV\" target=\"_blank\">Sneakers<\/a><br \/>\nI used to always think that slip-on sandals were the best thing to wear to the airport because they&#8217;re fuss-free to take off at security check, but then when I&#8217;m walking barefoot on a floor where everyone else is walking barefoot I think maybe it&#8217;s not worth it ha! \u00a0So shoes and socks it is from now on. \u00a0These sneakers are my go-to comfy shoes I can walk around in all day and still look put together (I adore the heather gray). \u00a0Packing the sandals instead of these saves more room, too! \u00a0I pray the sneaker trend never\u00a0dies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Are you into any of these, or subscribe to the same concepts?
