When I have a trip coming, I create some sort of a travel clothing plan so it’s convenient and quick for me to determine what I need to get when the packing time comes. In fact, I usually recycle or update my list from a previous trip, that that makes it even easier and quicker to plan for what I need to pack.
Even if I don’t have the time (or the space) to set aside beforehand the clothes I need to travel, the clothing plan (or schedule) will essentially quickly guide me on what clothes and apparel to bring out of the closet just in case I really need to pack my clothes in a rush.
