Must-Have Travel Items

Traveling can be a job in and of itself, from packing to managing trip details and everything in between. Most travelers remember the big stuff, but what about the little things that make travel easier? It’s nearly impossible to think of everything.
To help save you from the headache, we’ve compiled a list of must-have travel items.

No need to unpack with the hanging cosmetic bag. There are separate compartments for makeup, shampoo, face cleanser, jewelry, perfume/cologne and more. Lightweight, durable fabrics make the bag easily foldable and great for long- or short-term travel.

Shoes on the Fly shoe bags help you quickly find your shoes in your luggage. The personalized bags for your flats, heels, flip flops or sneakers leave you from stressing about your dirty soles mingling among your clothes. Purchase a functional, nylon or cotton artfully designed bag starting at $23. You’ll never leave your sneakers on a hotel balcony again.

The USB roll-up travel charger from Restoration Hardware is a necessity for travelers with multiple devices. The portable charger minimizes cable clutter and space in your bag by placing multiple charging outlets on a single bar that rolls up into a canvas mat. You can occupy a single wall outlet and charge up to four devices at one time.

Travel document holders allow you to stay organized with all of your travel documents in one place — your passport, boarding pass, hotel confirmation, itinerary, license and any credit cards or cash. Instead of pulling out all necessary travel documents from your bag one by one, the holders allow you to have the documents handy.

The $22 self-seal dry bag is the latest innovation in dry bags. Their unique static seal ensures a water- and air-tight seal. The bag is not only a dry bag, but can also be used as a float bag or a compression bag. The eight-liter capacity bags are available in three styles: small, medium or large. Travel easier and lighter with the travel dry bags, perfect for any traveler.
