Hey guys! What bag do you guys use on a weekend trip? Thanks for watching!

A Longchamp tote and a Uniqlo pouch are about the most useful things you can own. I've pretty much abandoned all my other purses for everyday and use them just to dress up.

Never apologize for being "that person". As a nurse, I have been wiping down airplane, bus, and train seats/trays as well as hotels rooms and cruise cabins for over 30 years. For a 3-day weekend, I take a Lovevook 17 inch backpack, for a week, I have a rolling under seat bag. I use the long tube shaped compression bags - they fit well laying in the bottom of my backpack or on end in my under seat bag.

Since you are flying don't forget the gum.
I was a minimalist packer before minimalism was a thing. From a very young age my mom taught me if I brought it, I had to carry it.
I just recently purchased my first Longchamp bag, the medium size it was perfect for the one weekend trip I used it for.
If you are staying in a hotel 99% of the time they have sample sized soap, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. Using the shampoo and conditioner for one or two nights doesn't hurt my hair.

I use the Large Le Pliage for my weekday work bag/purse and I've used it as my carry on for business trips. But wow, now I'm inspired to try to pack it for a weekend trip! (I'm generally an over packer)

Great video on minimal packing. This would be perfect on a budget airline 👏🏾

[JustBonnie]

Glad that you actually did pack minimally as a lot of videos show excess things

I have two of those Uniqlo bags in faux leather and used them both during my Japan trip a few weeks ago. Love how lightweight they are. Simple yet still stylish.

Small tip for you: If you use a packing cube you'll probably close more easily & have room to fit even more ;)

Love longchamp I own a couple. A slightly different fold would allow those items to tuck nicely without putting any strain on the zipper. Marie Kondo fold for the win

Packing minimally is just not in my nature. I am the over prepared person. For 3 days and 2 nights, I took a medium sized suitcase, my purse, a good sized bag for toiletries, and a backpack that i call the " mom in case bag". We went by car. Plus a tote of snacks. 😂

Thanks for sharing, I like the bag ! I, too, am a Zicam user-both allergies and cold formulas! Wonderful product! Packing-cubes really change how we pack fora trip!

The Large size Le Pliage is a tad too small for a weekend bag for me, but I have a custom XL with long handles that is just perfect to use for a 2 night getaway. I usually downsize everything I can, from shoes (Toms over Vans), socks (invisible ones instead of tennis socks), and makeup (have a mini palette for my entire face) to clothes. I pack things in thinner fabrics and form fitting cuts, for warmth I have a scarf plus a windproof jacket or a packable puffer jacket etc.
The total effect of cutting off a tiny bit on everything is really big,

I love an organized bag so lots of pockets I need

[rachellemini]

Omg where did you get that cute Chanel case? Lovely !! 🥰

[yagooch]

Not bad. However I've found I save a lot of space for a "weekend trip" by transferring just a weekends worth of my face grooming products into a smaller containers. Also, I personally find a compression packing cube helps squish to a lot of that space eating poofiness out of my clothes as well as keeps things organized. I also use an e-reader app on my phone or an 8 inch tablet instead of bringing an actual book. The 8 inch tablet also doubles as my in-flight entertainment (pre-downloaded movies and music).

I always use a beis weekender (for weeklong) but I haven’t been loving it. I have a week trip coming up I’m going to try out my lesportsac weekender and I just purchased a sling similar to the Uniqlo one so I’m hoping that will fit all outfits, snacks and my laptop. ❤️

Everyone’s minimal pack is different but thank you for sharing yours.
