Carry-on Essentials for Holiday Travel on Daytime Chicago

It’s almost time to pack your bags for the holiday travel season! ✈️☀️ Whether you’re craving a solo escape with your besties or a family adventure, STG is back on Daytime Chicago with some of our favorite packable essentials to take right on board! 

Let’s start with the bag! It needs to be lightweight so we can stuff it, and multi-pocketed to keep us organized. Lo & Son’s won us over! 

Lo & Sons Catalina Deluxe
PRICE: $215
SHOP: @loandsons.com
Our OG best-selling weekender bag that’s available in eco-friendly sustainable materials, and is extremely versatile and durable. It comes with helpful features to keep your travels seamless—a bottom shoe compartment for dirty shoes, multiple interior pockets, and a luggage sleeve. Designed for travel, but can work well as a gym bag or in any situation where you have a lot to carry. It’s hard to keep your beauty routine in check when you don’t want to check a bag! I have seriously tested these next two brands, and I have even started using this fabulous bar on my son at HOME! 

These next two brands have made life easier when trying to stay glam while on the go! I’m so obsessed with the shampoo bars that I now even use them at home.
