HERE IS CLEAS 2, 3, 4 PACKING METHOD
FIRST STEP:
From Cleas tutorial: “When I pack I like to think about my daytime and my night-time wear. So daytime that would be shirts, sweaters, jeans, dresses, everything that you want to wear out and about. Then pack for nighttime, that's pajamas. Your daytime and your night-time go into your core packing squares.”
“Then you want to add the layers.
SECOND STEP:
You want to do outerwear, underwear, footwear, okay, think about just the three wears, and underwear does count socks and bras.”
THIRD STEP:
“ Next tech, toiletries, bath, beauty. So to help you remember, it's a 2, 3 and 4 system”.
PACKING CUBES
From Cleas tutorial: “So these are my packing squares, they are very cute, let's be honest, and they hold my core basics.”
STEP 2, 3, 4

THE IMPORTANCE OF LABELS
“In our World, if it is not moving, label it! ”
— THE HOME EDIT
DON’T FORGET YOUR VITAMINS!
Clea on labeling:
”You know we love a label. We label everything and I really like these because, for instance, my vitamins, if I have the bag and it's already labeled, it prompts me to make sure I pack my vitamins. So to me, the label always acts as a set of instructions and it just guides you on what you need to do, where to find things, where to put it away, and in this case how to pack.”
TOOTHBRUSH CASE
Clea:
“Toothbrushes are always the things that get left behind. So if you have a bag that says it, you're more likely to pack it.”
MY PAJAMAS
“ I have my medicine, my toiletries, my vanity case, my pajamas. I'm certainly not going to leave for a trip without my pajamas if I see this little bag, that has pajamas on it, my makeup, my makeup brushes.”
GET YOUR CARRY ON RIGHT
