The one thing I get the most requests for are more packing guides, so I am so excited to be bringing one to you guys that I know you will be able to replicate easily on your next trip: my guide to packing 10 chic but cozy outfits in 1 carry-on bag! I made the switch to carry-on only travel about 4 years ago and have never looked back—not only do I never run the risk of losing my luggage, but I feel like I somehow actually like all my outfits more now because thanks to having to apply a bit more strategy and visualization in the planning stage of my trip, my outfits are more well thought-out and there’s not just mindless packing (you know the kind—when you’re frantically throwing anything and everything in “just in case”).
The 10-Day Carry-On Packing Formula
2 pants, 2 jackets, 2 dresses, 2 basic tops, 1 pair of wide-leg pants/culottes, 2 sweaters, 1 oversized cardigan, 3 pairs of shoes, 2 scarves, 2 belts, 3 bags, a few simple accessories

If you’re trying to figure out how to pack a carry-on for 10 days, the biggest shift is to stop thinking in complete outfits and start thinking in a capsule wardrobe: versatile pieces you can mix, layer and rewear in different ways. With a few great basics, two or three jackets or sweaters, comfortable shoes and the right accessories, you can easily create 10 outfits without checking a bag — and honestly, I usually end up liking what I wear more when I pack this way.

Very helpful article, Thank you for sharing. I love you
Love this! A carry-on is always the goal but somehow I always end up lugging a couple giant suitcase around!

Wow! I always pack just in a carry-on for my international trips but I definitely don’t think my outfits look as diverse as yours. I’m usually of the logic that I should go with one jacket and one pair of shoes to make room for more stuff. So interesting to see how many shoes, jackets and other accessories you’re fitting in your bag! I feel like mine is stuffed without most of this stuff.
I was wondering if you could tell what brand of suitcase/carry on you use for your travel. Thanks 🙂
