I Hate Packing...

I'm leaving for vacation soon and packing is always such a daunting task so I decided to have a little fun with it and share how I pack my jewelry. Since this is a more casual trip I didn't have to pack that much jewelry so I went with what I think is the easiest way to cover all of my bases.

First I started with hoops, in both silver and gold.  In my first Fab 5 post I said that hoops are extremely versatile so these must go in the suitcase.  Next, I packed full sets of bangles in silver and gold.  This way you can mix them up and wear as many or as little as you would like.  


After my basic pieces are taken care of, I add earrings that are a little more fun and rings. I always make sure that I add a pair of earrings with a little bit of color like the turquoise disks. As far as rings go I stick with a plain ring in each metal color and add some fun rings and pops of color.  


As if that weren't enough, I like to throw a couple of cuffs in there!  


Finally, I think the easiest way to pack everything up is to separate the jewelry in pouches by type. This way you aren't fumbling through a big bag of jewelry. See, those jewelry pouches you get when you shop do come in handy!  


And don't forget your sunglasses!

    1. Hi! I usually keep jewelry bags from my jewelry purchases. But you can find them at places like Michael's or anywhere that sells jewelry making materials.
