I'm Traveling This Fall and Packing Light—32 Beauty and Fashion Essentials That Made the Cut
Most Wanted is a weekly series in which oneBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing team member or friend of the brand will share the top 30 fashion and beauty finds on their current wish list.
Don't get me wrong. I love traveling but loathe packing. I'm a notorious overpacker, and you know that's no good when it comes to things like airline weight limits. My solution? It's simple. I'm trying to pack lighter—emphasis on trying. I'll be traveling to Hawaii in a month and have no interest in paying a ton of money because my bag is overweight, so I'm whittling down my options and luggage size. Mostly, the issue is my beauty products. Those always end up being extremely heavy, but I've narrowed it down to the absolute essentials. For everything I'm packing, from shoes and clothes to beauty items and accessories, keep scrolling.
The Luggage
I love July luggage. It's so well-made and durable. This particular suitcase is a bit smaller than what I would normally bring, but don't let that fool you. It's so roomy and expandable—perfect for overpackers like me. I know it isn't cheap by any means, but it's my favorite suitcase and totally worth the investment IMO.
The Bodycare
The Skincare
I've waxed poetic about this retinoid from Medik8 because it delivers serious results in record time. It also does so with no irritation or dryness for me.
The Fragrances
The Haircare
The Accessories
This is actually a diaper bag (it's great for all the parents out there), but I've been using it as a regular bag to take on trips, and I'm obsessed. It has a lot of pockets, and it's so roomy despite being a bit smaller. The brand also has a backpack in dusty rose that I'm into—you can't go wrong with her.
This little camera-style bag from Poppy Lissiman is a recent favorite—especially for traveling. It has so many pockets and I can't wait to add a bag charm or two to it.
The Clothes and Shoes
