Plan your outfits
Planning outfits is so important to not overpacking. If you don’t plan what you will wear each day, you will most likely end up packing way too many clothes.
Take a look at your schedule for your vacation, and plan out what you will wear each day. Consider weather (look at the forecast a few days ahead), any attractions you are going to that may have dress codes, and any activities you will be doing.
I lay my clothes out on my bed, in piles for each day of the trip. Put a sticky note on each pile and label what day it is for. Then, pack a couple of extra outfits, just in case.
Make sure each pile has everything you will need to wear that day: socks, undergarments, camis, etc.
Try to plan for only 2-3 pairs of shoes that will match with most of your outfits.
Take a picture once your clothes are laid out, so you can remember what outfit was for what day, in cause they get mixed up in your suitcase.
Once you have your piles completed, continue to the next tip!
