How I pack my Suitcase

 In this post I thought I would show you how I pack my Suitcase, how I fold the clothes, and how I make everything fit!


Let's start with how I fold/roll Shorts...


1.) Start with them folded in half, and laid out with the waistband in front of you
2.) Begin to roll making sure to smooth out any wrinkles as you go
3.) And that is how I do my shorts!

Collared Shirts, T-Shirts, and Button-ups


 1.) Start with them folded in half, and laid out with the neck in front of you
2.) Begin to roll making sure to smooth out any wrinkles as you go, this is especially important if it is a dressy-er shirt
3.) And that is how I do my shirts!

Camis and Tank-Tops


 1.) Start with them folded in half, and laid out with the neck in front of you
2.) Fold down the straps and begin to roll making sure to smooth out any wrinkles as you go
3.) And that is how I do my camis and Tank-Tops!

Dresses


1.) Start with them folded in half, and laid out with the neck in front of you. Is you have a dress with more volume at the bottom, fold the excess fabric diagonally like I did in the first picture.
2.) Begin to roll making sure to smooth out any wrinkles as you go. Like I said with the dressy shirts, it is very important to get out as many of the wrinkles as you possibly can.
3.) And that is how I do my Dresses!

The last this I want to show you is my Pajamas

I don't feel like it matters as much if your PJ's get wrinkled or not, so I always roll the shirt and pants together.
1.) Start with both the shirt and pants folded in half, with the bigger one on the bottom. With these Pajamas the pants were longer, but if you had shorts and a Tank-Top you might have to do it opposite...
^^ Like This ^^
2.) Begin to roll them together making sure not to let them fall apart
3.) And that is how I do my Pajamas!

I pack all of my Bags into this one purse so they stay together and are more compact 

 And here is the inside of my Suitcase!
On the top right I have all of my bathing suits
On the top left I have all of my shorts
On the bottom right I have my PJ's
On the bottom left I have my shirts, camis, tank-tops, and vests
In the middle I have my purse, beach mat, and shoes
In the mesh pocket I have my belt and socks
In the front pocket (that you can't see) I have all of my bras and underwear

And that is how I pack my Suitcase!
If you would like to see a more in depth post about what is actually in my suitcase, it will be up day after tomorrow!
Love you all!
:) <3 (:

College Countdown: Basic College Packing List

In this list I'm not going to go over every single thing.  Throughout this week I will do separate posts on Clothing and Makeup etc.  On Saturday of this week I will post a concise version of this including everything mentioned.  For now I would just like to go over basics such as kitchen items, "school supplies" and other items you may not have thought of! Kitchen These are basics that you might need if you are in a dorm and do not necessarily have a kitchen.  I will have a sink, so it will be doable for me to wash dishes as needed.  If you do not have a sink you might consider buying disposable silverware and dishes so you won't have to wash them in the bathroom. Plastic Bowls Plastic Cups Tumblers or Reusable Water Bottles - I recommend this regardless of if you have a sink. Brita Pitcher - The water will probably be different from what you are used to, and this will make the transition easier Ice Cube Trays Plastic Ice Cubes - If the water is jus...

College Countdown: Packing Clothing and Cleaning Out

Let's tackle the packing part first... Instead of folding or rolling all of the clothes which needed to be hung up and carting them to college in a suitcase, I left them on hangers and wrapped a trash bag around them.  Once arriving in my dorm I hung them up, cut off the bags, and everything was great!  Also, if you can guarantee that you won't need your warm winter kind of clothing until after Fall Break, then don't bring it!  Take home summer clothes over Spring Break and bring back any fall clothes (which I'll mark on this list with a * for convenience). Many people on the Internet strictly recommend the thin felt hangers, I have used cheap Walmart hangers and haven't had a problem, so I guess it's personal preference! Dresses Little Black Dress Versatile Skirt "Party" Dress Sunday Dress Shirts Button Downs - Can be worn as light jackets in the spring and fall, or more formally if needed.  I suggest bringing: Denim/Chambr...

Bulu Box: February

So I saw a coupon on this Subscription box which would make every box you ever ordered $5 instead of $10, which sounds great right?  Not so my friends... I figured this would be a nice health subscription box with healthy food and workout tips, maybe with a few supplements... It is almost entirely supplements, and I am not a big enough health nut to buy into it all... So needless to say, I canceled, but thought I'd let you know what I received and a couple of the small highlights! The first thing I pulled out was the Vital 4U Fiber Drink which is: "Packed with soluble prebiotic fiber...to promote better gut health and digestion."  These are $12.00 for a 12 pack, and I received two, so basically a $2 value.  I gave these to my mom to add into our smoothies she makes for an added boost, because I didn't want to drink them straight. There were the only things I was SUPER excited about! I love gummy vitamins!  These were the best I had ever tried, with a g...
