Have you started counting down the number of weeks until your summer holiday? If you're like us, you will already be dreading the packing. Fear not, we have taken the time to write you a handy guide including all our favourite packing hacks. From intimates to cables we’ve got you covered on how to pack smart this summer!
The best way to pack lingerie is an age-old debate, but one thing's for certain; when travelling, you want to get underwear to your destination safely and securely and by this we mean not shoving them in the top compartment of your suitcase.
We suggest stacking your bras together and lay them flat in your suitcase to avoid misshaping them and to keep any wires safe.
You can also stuff your briefs inside your bras or bikini tops to protect their shape whilst travelling.
One of our best tips for saving suitcase space is to stack your briefs, then roll them and then use them to fill in any spaces between clothing. This tip will also work with bralettes.
Now, onto our favourite non-lingerie related packing tips.
Our favourite way to prevent our earphones from tangling or snapping is by slipping them into our sunglasses case.

These sunglasses are the Bardot sunglasses from our sister brand Taylor & Jackson.
Always roll your clothes! We avoid folding at all costs, rolling takes up less space than folding. Additionally, it prevents your clothes from creasing.
Take a large scarf or sarong in your hand luggage. They’re extremely light and handy whilst on all kinds of holidays. You can use a sarong or a large scarf as a blanket whilst on the plane, or as a beach cover up. If you’re travelling around Southeast Asia, they are extremely handy as you’re often required to cover your shoulders and legs to enter temples. The same rules apply for entering other places of worship such as the big cathedrals in Europe.
Below are some of our favourites from our sister brand Taylor & Jackson.
Our final tip is taking a small bottle of Soak wash, not only is it 90ml (under the hand luggage liquid allowance) but it may save your favourite garments whilst on holiday. It is perfect for quickly washing your laciest lingerie and favourite swimwear meaning you’ll have to pack less anyway! Soak is an eco-friendly, rinse-free washing agent that cleans wonderfully, and is ideal for hand washing.
Check out the video below on how to use Soak Wash for your swimwear and why you should take it with you on all your future trips!
