3 must-have travel accessories

Hi everyone! Today we're talking about travel accessories! Yesterday I booked a long weekend away with my best friend. We live apart, and I hadn't had the chance to see her for three years in a row. So, this year we managed to save a long weekend just for the two of us. How amazing is that? I'll travel just with the backpack, so I'm on the market for great travel accessories to make this new experience as smooth as possible! And what perfect occasion than this to share my 3 must-have travel accessories?

THE backpack

I have on top of my mind the hunt for a great backpack for now. So, let's start from here. I need a functional bag that I can put under the seat on the plane but also with enough capacity for a long weekend. I'm utterly obsessed with the Beis backpack. It's viral on TikTok, but it's unbelievable how roomy is it and how practical it is to organize it. Of course, it's some kind of an investment piece for me now, but I think it's something that I could use forever! What do you think? I'm so tempted to buy it. Have you seen how pretty it is? Love it so much!

Another great option I found on Amazon is this Metz backpack. It's not as cute as the Beis one, but it's definitely at a lower price.

The third solution I found on Amazon is compromising the Beis and the Metz backpack. The third solution comes in a pretty lilac shade, compact, practical, and roomy.

With a lovely surprise, I found a cool backpack on H&M that is also water-repellent and perfect for the under-seat of an airplane.

I'll keep you posted with my research, but these four options are the best I found for now. 

Travel pillow and mask

I started using the travel pillow and mask when I traveled to New York in 2018. Let me tell you that they are game-changers even with the shortest flights. Even if you don't sleep, the travel pillow gives you extra comfort for your neck and head. The mask is perfect when you want to protect yourself from all the light sources in the airplane. I hate when I want some peace during my flight, and the lights hit me. Usually, these sets come with earplugs. Have you ever experienced a flight with crying babies, snoring people, or advertising announcements? Well, I have pretty often. The earplugs are one of my favorite travel accessories. I can rest, read, or isolate myself from the noise to enjoy a beautiful flight. I found a great set like the one I have on Amazon if you're interested in purchasing it. 

Hair clips

Last but not least, my third must-have travel accessory is the hair clip. I'm so glad that claw clips are trendy because I've been using them since I was a kid. They are easy but cool hair accessories to recreate an effortless look, practical when you can't wash your hair or don't want your hair down. I've built a collection of scrunchies because I still love them, but I think the hair clips create less traction on my hair roots. So, I'm trying to find a balance between scrunchies, braids, and hair clips when I want to put my hair back. At the moment, my favorites are from H&M because they are so stylish and cute.

When traveling, I tend to pinch the crossbody strap or a bag handle with the clip to have it always with me.
