Few things excite us more than spontaneously booking a weekend away. Somehow these quick, whirlwind trips manage to pack in twice the amount of fun in half the time than a full vacation. Having all of the right travel gear is essential, especially for these short, impromptu trips. So we put together a list of 9 weekend getaway accessories to grab before you go.
Weekend Bag
The perfect bag keeps all of your gear organized. We like Paravel for their chic luggage/duffle bag hybrid factor. Their signature main line duffel bags easily fit everything you need for a few days away from home. They make an assortment of styles and sizes, including ones that easily tuck into the overhead compartment of an airplane (pro tip: Don’t ever check a bag for a weekend getaway; you don’t need one!).

Travel Kit
We might be biased, but our Merino Travel Kit is the perfect getaway companion. It includes a yummy throw to keep you cozy in transit (and can be used as a picnic blanket should the opportunity arise). Also featured in the kit are an eye mask to help you sleep anywhere and a lined carrying case that doubles as an airplane pillow cover (how clever). Toss the kit into your bag and pull it out on the plane, train or when you arrive at your destination.

Headphones
Never leave home without a good pair of headphones. Even when hopping in the car for a road trip, you’ll be thankful for headphones when winding down at night or when heading out on a morning run. Our pick: Beats by Dre wireless headphones. They may be large, but most importantly, they’re super comfortable.

Speaking of skincare, travel is notoriously tough on your skin and a face mist is recommended. Try Caudalie Beauty Elixir.

It amplifies the benefits of your skincare ritual while nourishing, smoothing and brightening. Use your face mist several times throughout the day when you need a pick me up.

Audible Membership
As a bedding brand, it’s no surprise that we are huge fans of Audible at bedtime. For road trips, listen to a book with your travel buddy or family. Audio books also help you relax when stuck at the airport, on a train or falling asleep at night in unfamiliar surroundings.

Who knew that water bottles could be so darn stylish? A glass bottle from Bkr might not seem practical for travel, but the rubber cover actually ensures that your H2O stays safe and sound at all times – plus it’s better for the environment. Staying hydrated never looked so good.
