But, I&#8217;m already thinking ahead for summer trips. I like to plan my outfit long before I have to travel. This way, I will be able to pack up my stuff immediately. Since I have 3 little ones that I need to pack for as well, I don&#8217;t have the luxury of staring in my closet for hours when packing.<\/p>\n<p>For a traveling outfit, I usually pick my outfit after I decide on the bags and shoes. Fist, I will decide on the comfortable walking shoes or sandal (preferably something neutral that goes with everything because I like to travel light).<\/p>\n<p>My criteria for picking my traveling bags are:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Light: \u00a0No chunky clunky hardware because chances are we will be doing a lot of walking and the last thing I want is to drag heavy hardware during the whole trip.<\/li>\n<li>Not too small: It has to be able to fit at least a pair of sunglasses, small make up bag, wallet, and cell phone with a little more room to spare.<\/li>\n<li>Crossbody strap: This is a definite must. I&#8217;m already short one hand since I have 3 little kids. Naturally, I can&#8217;t spare another hand to hold a bag.<\/li>\n<li>Pop of color: I tend to gravitate toward neutral color clothes and just play with textures. \u00a0Therefore, adding a pop of color will add interest to my otherwise boring outfit.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I usually go shopping before a trip (during the trip, after the trip, who&#8217;s counting right?), that&#8217;s probably why my closet is full to the brim. This year, I decided not to do that and just use things that I already have. So, I decided that my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.joygryson.com\/collections\/sale-1\/products\/849119012166\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'http:\/\/www.joygryson.com\/collections\/sale-1\/products\/849119012166', 'IIIbeca Murray Street Crosbody');\">IIIbeca Murray Street Crosbody<\/a> fits the bill.<\/p>\n<p>I like the fact that it has a simple and modern design that won&#8217;t clash with any outfit. It is also easy to open and close, which I can do it without looking. (some bags require your undivided attention just to open and close it; yeah it&#8217;s supposed to be fancy like that! I have several bags like that but they&#8217;re not coming with me on the trip)<\/p>\n<p>Since I&#8217;m not planning on buying new things, I&#8217;m probably going to bring my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zappos.com\/sam-edelman-trina\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'http:\/\/www.zappos.com\/sam-edelman-trina', 'Sam Edelman Trina');\">Sam Edelman Trina<\/a> from last year for footwear.
