Last year, I traveled more than I have ever before, and I'm trying to manifest that same energy for 2024. I love to travel and find going to new places so exciting. You get to experience what it would be like if you chose to live in a different city for a while, you get to leave your problems at home, and you get to wear all of your favorite wardrobe pieces you've been saving for a great vacation. I mean, what's not to love? The key to great trips, however, is planning well and packing strategically. You want to make sure you're bringing the right things and are thinking about what you will actually need and use on your trip, not what you might have a last-minute urge to wear.

With all of the traveling I've done, I have gotten pretty good at packing smart, but that's not without help from some travel essentials from Nordstrom and Amazon that I swear by. Since I want to make sure your travels go as smoothly as possible you save yourself from overpacking unnecessary items, I've rounded up the travel essentials that have changed the game for me.

Keep scrolling to see the Nordstrom and Amazon travel essentials I swear by.

When I'm in a new place, it's sometimes hard for me to sleep the whole night through. These help. 

This year, I'm pledging to journal every trip.

Sometimes, a good belt bag is the best way to go when traveling. 

A packing cube set for those of us who love to stay organized. 

Sometimes when I'm taking a trip, my skin can break out more than it normally would, so I always bring a Dr Jart+ face mask.

Such an easy way to organize and store your beauty products and your jewelry while traveling. 

The perfect fragrance set for when you're on a trip. 

Compression cubes are great for when you want to bring a little more than you can fit in your luggage. 

To save room in your makeup bag, try a travel size palette instead. 

Trust me—once you travel with one of these, you'll never go back. 

You never know what the lighting will be like in a hotel room or wherever you're staying. This mirror makes it easy to find the best light. 

If you don't have time to shave before a trip, bring this instead. 

For when you don't want to leave most of your makeup brushes at home. 

You can't go wrong with Malin+Goetz.
