Here’s how I packed for a 12 day trip to Southeast Asia in only a carry-on and a backpack! There are a few secret sauces to making this happen. First, you have to be mindful of the clothes you are packing. I only took the absolute essentials and I did take things I could easily wear again. Second, you need vacuum bags to condense everything down. Tap the orange shopping cart. Third, you have to condense your toiletries down to travel size bottles, and you need this collapsible toiletry bag. Listen, some of my most stressful travel experiences have been due to delayed or loss luggage. If you can make the system work and carry on a bag, I promise it will make your life so much easier less stressful!

I’m honestly not sure if this TT is about styling my porch swing or if it’s about my bum! 😂😂 but nonetheless, here is my fall porch swing reveal! Head to my LIB, then Amazon, for sources for most everything seen here, including all of these adorable pillows, my Main Street rug from my @simplysoutherncottage collection with @orianrugs and a similar bedswing. Styling my porches for fall is one of my favorite things to do. I love creating spaces for the “drivebyers” to see (yes I see you 😂) and also relaxing spaces to come home to. Everything in this reel is completely affordable. And these pillows are all new this year. Last I looked there were plenty in stock and I highly recommend all. #fallporchdecor #fallporch #falldecor #falldecorations #falldecorating #falldecoratingideas #fallpillows #pillowdecor #autumndecor #autumndecorations #amazonfinds Do you decorate your porch for fall?
