The roll

One of my favorite parts of traveling is packing for the trip. Your probably thinking who actually enjoys packing… but I do! ha! I love going through my closet, trying clothes on and closing my eyes to imagine what the trip would like in that outfit.

The hard part is, I also like to have options. So I have to be able to fit as much in my bag as possible! One very effective way I have found to do this is by rolling my clothes instead of folding them.

I begin by folding the clothes in half and then roll them as tightly as possible. As you can see, I do this with not only shirts, but pants, dresses, my undies, everything! The rolling also prevents my clothes from wrinkling as badly, which is definitely a plus!

I promise, once you try “the roll”, you will never go back to folding your clothes for your travels again.
