Next week, I will be ‘traveling with my friends and of course there are a few essentials that I need to travel in style. I will be visiting the sunny side of Miami with a few of my close friends and here’s a list of some of the things I will be packing or bringing on my trip

A Comfy Travel outfit- My travel outfits usually things I can slip on with ease at an early time in the morning. Personally, I usually go for slouchy jumpsuits, or sweat sets.

Sandals- Block, strappy sandals, are essentials to dress up a day look and are also great for a night out.

Camera- A camera is a definite essential to capture the special moments and memories. The camera that I use is the Nikon D5500. However, for vlogging purposes I will be trying out the super affordable Canon Powershot Elph 180.

Crossbody or Fanny Pack– A fanny pack or crossbody are much needed to place all of your essentials such as your cell phone, id, passport or any important items into a convenient and hands-free location.

Sunscreen– You can’t go into vacation without sunscreen for protection. A great brand to try for the brown girls is Unsun which will give protection without leaving a white film on the skin.

Cute Suitcase- A compact and stylish suitcase is important for the seasoned jet-setter. A Trendy and affordable suitcase line is the Calpak.

Travel Size Perfume Scent– A dash of perfume will add punctuation to any outfit. The roll on that I will bring on this trip will be the Victor Rolf Flowerbomb scent.
