You book your flights, hire a car, decide where to stay and what to do. The holiday excitement is building. But somehow, when it comes down to it, you don’t want to pack.

As a firm believer that packing is the worst task of the holiday (especially when you’ve made some misguided purchases you have to squeeze into your luggage coming home) I always put it off until the last minute.

Unsurprisingly, this has often resulted in being completely underprepared for any realistic situation I might find myself in (and overprepared for the imaginary scenarios in my head). Most often, I end up so overpacked it’s impossible to unravel anything I need without sprinkling a generous layer of sand over everything I own.

But watch out, summer: this year, I’m a whole new person. Thanks to packing cubes I no longer have to spend hours folding and rearranging my belongings in a criminally undersized suitcase. 

Now, I can group each category of clothes into one packing cube, and easily see what I’ve overdone it on. 

Whether you’re a chronic overpacker or simply chuck a few bikinis in a bag and call it a day, don’t skip on these packing cubes to put your mind at ease that you haven’t forgotten the essentials.
