No Kids, No Chaos: How to Pack for Just Yourself
Every now and then, Zach and I get the chance to sneak away without the girls — and let me tell you, packing feels like a breeze compared to our usual chaos! No diapers, no toys, no last-minute meltdowns over which stuffed animal makes the cut. Just me, Zach, and a suitcase I can actually fill with cute outfits. It’s honestly such a treat! When it’s just the two of us, I get to be a little more intentional with what I pack — think versatile pieces, elevated basics, and a few fun looks for date nights or adventures. Here’s exactly how I break down my packing list to keep things simple, stylish, and stress-free!
Travel Day Looks + Essentials – A matching set or comfortable romper is the ultimate pick for comfort and style on travel days. Cozy leggings paired with a soft hoodie are also perfect for long airport waits or a comfy car ride, offering both warmth and flexibility. Cute chunky tennis shoes are a travel day must-have, combining comfort with a sporty edge that’s perfect for walking through airports or exploring new destinations. These outfits prioritize both style and practicality, ensuring you’re ready for a long travel day with ease. A silk travel pillow and sleep mask are essential for staying cozy and getting rest while traveling, ensuring you’re ready to go when you arrive. A portable charger keeps your devices powered up, and an insulated water bottle helps you stay hydrated throughout your day. Headphones are a must for enjoying music or blocking out noise during flights, while hand sanitizer keeps your hands clean on the go. Don’t forget yummy snacks like trail mix to keep you fueled and happy while you travel — these essentials will make your trip smoother and more enjoyable from start to finish.
Getaway Looks – It’s vacation… so obviously a few new outfits are a must, right?? I love pieces that feel effortless but still pulled together. A flowy coverup is my go-to for easy transitions from beach to brunch — just throw it on and go. Add a chic floppy hat for sun protection and a woven purse to complete that laid-back, elevated vibe. I’m leaning into soft neutrals this trip — think beige, taupe, and ivory — for a palette that feels both timeless and polished. Slingback heels add just the right amount of sophistication without trying too hard. And I can’t forget a classic black swimsuit with a delicate floral detail — simple, elegant, and so flattering. Of course, no look is complete without layers of gold jewelry to catch the light and add a little sparkle. These pieces are all about easy vacation style that still makes a statement. Here’s a few things I’ve ordered recently!
