Two things I would add are flip flops or travel slippers because I hate to walk barefoot in the hotel room, and a packable weekender bag or Longchamp Pliage bag that folds up to bring new purchases home! Luxury goods cost less in Europe, especially when you get back V.A.T.
I truly like the style of your presentations! I dislike it when I'm getting 'entertained" by other you tubers and wasting my time! You're so professional and informative! Thank you!
I do too!
You are so graceful, friendly and informative.
nykka3 thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Thank you 🌻
Thanks 🌼
Audrey, you could have a career reading audiobooks! Your voice is so pleasing. I will be referring back to this video when I go to London next year. Do you take a little folder with your travel paperwork? I must say I couldn’t leave my sneakers behind... while it’s not too chic my feet can’t handle the long days of walking! Thanks for sharing Audrey!
What an amazing compliment, thank you! Also I know what you mean about sneakers and I actually want to do a video styling different travel /sightseeing outfits featuring sneakers that are comfortable but still really cute
I totally agree - what gracefully presence and pleasing voice! I listen to your videos for relaxation:-)
I agree! 😊
It's all perfect. I live in England and you will be just right Have a fun time
Gail Spear yay!! Thank you so much 😊
Hi, Audrey - I wanted to tell you that this is just my favorite video. I have watched it so many times - I love the music, the outfits, your system, your travel capsule. I have been watching it during COVID during this time of travel bans, planning for the day when we can once again explore the world! Also, I think your channel is by far superior to other fashion-focused channels. I especially love your videos on restyling clothing you already own and your focus on sustainability, natural fibers and utilizing responsible brands without breaking the bank. I look forward to your videos every week.
I'm traveling abroad for the first time coming this spring, and I was very anxious about packing for the trip until I was shown this video. You offered some amazing and helpful tips, and I am now so excited to colour coordinate, plan, and pack my travel capsule!
Taking pictures to the outfits is the key.
Loved the music 🎶
❤️ love how specific your content is
🌸Love your visuals ... each clip
Love 🤗 your editing
Love 👍your soft calm voice and perfect pronunciation of each word u speak.
Susan Mathis thank you so much!! ❤️❤️🤗
Visiting a colder climate's a great way to "fall" into fall. Have a great trip!
Audrey, I've been watching your channel regularly and am a subscriber and just realized that I saw this video in November 2018 when I was preparing for a European vacation and wanted to travel carry-on only. I did it and it made all the difference. Watching it again now.
Great tips... When I plan my packing I can pack so much less and love what I bring. If I do it in a hurry, I tend to bring stuff I don't use and forget stuff I need
Darcy L me too!
Darcy, you are so right!!!! Planning the packing is part of the fun. Happy & safe travels.
I am traveling this weekend to Paris and I am definitely using all of your tips to pack. Thank you for the video!
Have fun, Paris is amazing. I'd love to go back there
Me too!! So glad I watched this before my trip to Paris this weekend:)))
Paiz Paiz I will see you there! I will be the one copying Audrey’s look!
This lifetime light packer is crying. Four jackets! Four pairs of pants! For one week! Lol. That said, still fun to watch! And I appreciate the guidance on folding blazers; very helpful.
I'm in awe of the quantity of clothes that went in to the carryon. I have a similar bag, and no way can i fit 3/4 of those! I don't use packing cubes; they must be effective. Your tip on small toiletries rings very familiar. Thanks Audrey for the great strategy of planning the trip wardrobe!
You have a great sense of style. I lived in London for 17 years and the thing I always saw visitors struggling with was stairs! My recommendation would be to make sure you can lift your suitcase comfortably. There are some underground stations with stair-free exits but not all of them so if you want the most flexibility to move around and not have to take taxis, pack lightly.
Putting your carry-on bag on your suitcase handle I have found is a no-no in London because you'll have to keep taking it off to go up and down the stairs on the underground. I would suggest (because I regularly travel with a little dog to London) a belt bag with your essentials credit cards cash change tissues wipes soap leaves hand sanitiser and a small suitcase that you can actually carry up and down stairs. I travelled once with a cross body bag which I presumed would be practical but every time I bent down to pick up my case or my little doggy it swung back and forth. I usually travel with a larger backpack with room so I can fit things in like packets of sandwiches drinks etc or any items that I may buy on my trip. Hands-free is the way to go. London is wonderful and so easy to get around. X
Probably the best packing-for-travel video I've ever seen. Thanks, Audrey!
Have a wonderful trip it's lovely and sunny here in the UK at the moment so a perfect time to visit.
Enjoy London...my home town...
Your outfits look just right...
Years ago there was a saying " Never wear brown in town" only country folk ( Think Lord Grantham in Downton Abbey) would wear tweed but never in London...is what that means. Tweed back then was like "sports wear " is today ...
As to looking at a weather app ....don't bother...our weather changes hourly..
Carry a folding umbrella...and a Pac a mac ...maybe.
😂😂😂 Great tips!
Jacqueline Arnold thank you! We had an amazing time and I was so surprised how similar the weather was to New England (it makes sense why it was called that lol)
Enjoy your time in London! I live in Cambridge UK and London is a fun town to visit! 🕺✨
I always find my way back to your videos, especially when preparing for travel. That large scarf is absolutely beautiful.
I love your capsule! If I were to adapt it for myself, I'd probably exchange one of the black long sleeve tees for a B&W polka dot (or striped) one, and one of the black pants for tan or camel trousers. I'd leave the rust blazer behind and bring a B&W dress with a large print that would go with all the jackets, including the glen check blazer (I like mixing patterns.) All else I'd keep pretty much the same. Thank you for sharing. Have fun in England!
Oh wow u r coming to my hometown!!!! Wishing u a wonderful trip, u have certainly lucked out with the weather!🤗
TheNicoliyah I had an amazing time! ❤️❤️
Fantastic, this is the best video I've seen on packing. Some of these tips I've used myself on previous trips.
Thanks for showing, I have to travel to Texas a lot. My mom and Father in law and sisters still live there. This will make traveling so much easier.
I so appreciate the concrete examples of how to choose clothing for a trip. It is just what I have been looking for. Thank you
I love ur voice id ont care what everyone said if its natural or fake but key is its quiet soothing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This video is aesthetically mindblowing! Have a great trip!
OMG! What a WONDERFUL AND SO WELL MADE video!!! Thank you so much for the tips! I really enjoyed it!! 🙏🙏🙏
Another great video as always. Have a great trip!
You are awesome !!!!!!! This is the classiest and most practical light packing video I've seen. I'm traveling in a few weeks, this is so good. Much love from France, beautiful Audrey :)
You always have the best videos! Love every single one of them 👍😙.... So informative, inspirational! Many hugs from Sweden 🇸🇪
That's just the video I needed! I'm traveling light to London for one week in November, so thank you so much for uploading
Have fun& don't forget foldable umbrella! In England you can experience all 4 seasons in one day so layer up if your spending whole day out exploring xxx
Ania Comerford
Audrey did include an umbrella.
So true😂😀 especially in September/October!
This sounds like the weather in Toronto!
Due to a recommendation you had on a previous video, I purchased a packing cube set and LOVE THEM!! I am surprised how much fits in there. Often, I will pack in a large duffle bag; with thes cubes, I don't need to mess up the folded clothes looking for an item. Have fun in London! Look forward to your video about your trip.
This is the best travel video I've seen in a while. Thanks for sharing!❤
Hope you have a fabulous time! Love your music choices ,and your videos have given me great ideas ,we have a very similar style. I love the tips on cleaning finer fabrics. My friends tell me I sound old when I say I'm taking my clothes to the tailor and shoes to the cobbler. But I believe if you maintain a quality item it will be a lasting investment.Thank you!
After several years of frequent air travel trips I got packing down to an art form but alas I’m out of the habit now. I loved this video. Best wishes from Australia xx
I love packing cubes, will never travel without them again. Enjoy your trip!
Absolutely perfect. Have a smashing good time in London!
Excellent light packing. Pouches for each category is what Im going to do after watching this. Thank you. You are packing light, keeping warm in London and your outfits are gorgeous.
Have a lovely time in London, the weather has been nice here this week!
Have a great trip I live in Yorkshire UK. I hope you will be doing a little filming while your in London so we can see what you think of it. I don't go very often but I enjoy it when I do go. X
Wow! That's a lot of stuff! That's more than I took to Europe for 8 weeks... Having said that, I'll be looking at my combinations of outfits more carefully next trip. I think you have some excellent ideas here!
and yet, she still managed to get it all in her carry-on and bag. Well done Audrey.
mylittlesuitcase 1 thank you!
I know I am very late to the party and we don't get to travel in the near future because of the situation, but I love planing ahead and I will invest in some travel containers. They are not only practical for an airplane but also trains and cars. Thank you so much for the inspiration
I love all your videos , you give very good tips. Thank you. Where can I get that black bag? The size is just right for under the seat while on the plane.
Have a lovely time in London.. It's a shame the forecast is looking a little showery next week as we have had the most glorious Oct weather so far here in the Uk.
Mitch Heywood thank you so much! We lucked out and had mostly gorgeous weather 🤗❤️
Thanks for the great information. I went on Totally Scarves and have purchased four silk scarves so far. Happy to add silk to my scarf collection. I enjoy your RUclips channel.
When I travel it's often for 2-8 weeks, I never take white anythings. Too hard to launder and keep looking fresh and white. Like you, I organize on a rolling rack before making decisions. Scarves are the real wardrobe changers for long travel. Totally agree on using travel-size liquid toiletries that get refilled before each trip, my liquids 3-1-1 pouch is just like yours and it fits a LOT. This is one of the better packing videos I've seen on youtube.
So organized.😍Have a great trip!
I'm traveling to Houston Tx in a few weeks for business thanks for the free printable
Great tips here! Yes, definitely working with a color palette is one of the best packing tips ever. It makes getting dressed while travelling so easy, to be spending a lot more time out and about not trying to figure out what to wear. Also, scarves...yes! I tend to pack either black or dark blue clothing because I'm away from our doggies, so no risk of dog hair! 😁
A great video as always. I love that you give a lot of good information in a smaller amount of time. I love love love my Tieks ballet flats for traveling and always.
Why is Your Voice is so soothing
Audrey, great travel tips. You got it going on, girlfriend! Safe travels to you and your husband. London is a wonderful city!
Another great video, thanks Audrey. A small "heads-up" is to check your airline's carry-on limits (weight and dimensions). US airlines have very generous limits and it would be easy to be caught out changing airlines. Ciao.
Thanks so much for sharing this. I currently still check in bags even for a 7 day trip. But these tips to preplan outfits and using like colours makes so much sense. Do you have any tips on packing with a carry on for 3-4 weeks in Europe?
Watching this in March 2019. Super helpful! Bringing mix and match items, plus limited toiletries and 2 pairs of shoes is definitely ideal. I think I usually bring a pair of walking shoes (sneakers) and a pair of sandals and that is usually fine because I travel in the Summer usually. And don't forget you might want to buy 1-2 items wherever you go.
Have an absolutely wonderful trip! Thank you for sharing, I don't know if you'll have a chance to film while you're on your trip or if you'll be enjoying some time for yourself (as you should!) but I'd love to see how you end up styling all these pieces and for what activities :) I always travel in fall/winter because my husband is in construction management and is always busy during the good times of year to travel, so I only ever travel when a coat and layers are a must. I did 8 days in a carry on when I went to Paris in February a few years ago, and it was a pretty fun challenge!
Need a large suitcase for all the goodies purchased on the trip! Thats part of the fun.
Such a helpful pre travel video. I adore the outfits and autumnal color pallet. Simply classic and beautiful.
I wear ballet flats all the time and find them most comfortable for my tiny size 5 feet. They are certainly a must when I am expecting to do a lot of walking. I also love my white canvas Keds sneakers or Toms for walking as well. Us girls with little feet don’t often get a wide choice of shoes.
omg genius ideas! I am so glad I watched this before my trip to Scotland :)
What a beautiful way to pack !
Your voice is so soothing and graceful. I also love your content. 💕
Great video as usual, I love using the packing cubes I bought in ikea for only 7 dollars, makes a big difference, have fun!
I am so jealous, London is somewhere that I really want to visit. I hope that you share your trip with us, Audrey. Bon Voyage.
This is exactly what I need. I’m a habitual over packer. I come home and didn’t wear 1/2 the stuff I brought. I am going to try to b better at this!
Have a great trip! Love London 🧡
Perfect advises on everything!!! ❤️Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Will you also do a video for summer and spring travels?
I love packing light. Thanks for your tips.👜👢😘
Hi! I was in London as the same time as you! I packed way too much and the weather was sooo warm I could’ve worn my T-shirt’s. Hope you had as nice a time as I did!
A wonderful, structured video, everything so well arranged. Simply a very practical and beautiful to watch packing instructions. Thank you very much and have fun in London. I'm going to Berlin tomorrow to visit my family ... Greetings from Germany by Severin
I love your packing tips. I don't have any packing cubes...maybe I should! Unlike you, I don't like to use a carry on, because I always end up buying this and that at my destination, so there isn't enough room! Have fun in London!
Absolutely love the boots & so pleased to have found a recommendation before our two week trip to Paris & London! They were so comfortable and I had searched for weeks without finding anything appropriate. My daughter and I each managed to squeeze into carry-ons only but I’ll definitely change some things next trip. We were unfortunate to have nearly 80° weather in Paris (and a day at Disneyland) and mid 50’s and rainy our last couple of days in London, so having to pack for multiple climates was rough! Any advice for managing that in a carry on and still having cohesive styling? Love all your videos!
I love watching your fashion videos, Audrey! Thank you for doing helpful and informative videos. By the way, let me share to you what I use for my travel, it's a Nomad Lane b\Bento bag. I like it because it has a lot of compartments and it packs like a suitcase.
Audrey, have a great trip! I was wondering where you got the suitcase organizers? Love your channel!
Hi Audrey :-) hope you enjoy London!
Where is that scarf from that you’re trying on with the outfit in the mirror please?
Great video. Love packing for trips! Have safe travels...
This was a really great video. Very informative. Loved your outfit ideas for London. Enjoy!
Perfection!!!!! Thanks for this video. I hope you are enjoying your stay!
Hope you had a great time in London!! Great outfits as always!!
Great ideas! Must definitely invest in some packing cubes.
So useful. Thank you.💓💥
Yay!!! Have Fun in London!! Packing videos are in my top favorites!! Thanks, Audrey! ;b
Awesome! Great advice! Thanks Audrey! 🤗💕
So much great content in this video. The packing into your carry on was so helpful.
I am impressed. I'm also always worried that my carry on meets the standards of whatever airline I'm taking. They change so often. The Away carryon looks substantial.
I don’t have any upcoming trips planned, but I’ll definitely come back to this video when I do! I love packing videos!! Have a fantastic trip - would love to see the completed outfits you do decide to wear :)
This could not be more timely. Leaving tomorrow morning for a week.
I have just done two weeks over 5 countries(ranging temperature-wise, between(7-24C) on only hand-baggage 25x20x40cm, and a self-added hidden pocket in the lining of my Winnipeg polar extreme jacket, for my tablet and a pair of light trousers.
Could you please do a video like that (with or without the jacket).
With Ryanair, carry-on is not free, so many people would appreciate a hand-luggage only video.
I can not watch it now, later on in the evening I will. Looks interesting and chances are that I will get some tips from you.
I’m IMPRESSED!!!!
I so wanna travel but due to the covid situation. Don't think it's a good idea to travel now, even though the restrictions have lifted slightly. But your vids keep me entertained until it's safe for travel. Thank you x
Hi Audrey, could you link your checked Black/white coat please? Looooove your style!
Are you planning on writing a book? It would be great to have all these tips in one place. I take notes on your videos, and my notes are everywhere! Thank you! Love your videos!
Perfect outfits but that's a lot! But yes I couldn't travel with less than that. Beautiful clothes!
New subscriber!! Do you have a video of you styling/combining your capsule items into outfits?
I just returned from Europe (10 days). I thought I packed light, but now realize that I could have done better. I did use packing cubes. Your video gave me some great ideas. As for the white shirt, do you recommend Brooks Bros or any others? I need to replace mine.
Great video!
Curious where you get all your nice t-shirts? I love the simple, scoop neck kind, but have a hard time finding...
