Road Trip Essentials: How to Pack for a Long Weekend Like a Pro

For a 3-day road trip, your weekender bag is your MVP. The Borsali Weekender is the perfect pick—structured enough to look polished, roomy enough to fit all your essentials, and includes custom size packing cubes to keep your things organized. Plus, it slides perfectly into the back seat or trunk.

• Borsali Weekender

• Shoe Caps - Included with Weekender

Pro tip: Use the included shoe caps to separate your footwear from your clean clothes—goodbye, plastic bags.

• Hanging Toiletry Bag
• Clear TSA Bag with Handle
• Clear TSA Approved Liquids Bag
• Flat TSA Approved Travel Bottles

Instead of lugging your entire bathroom, opt for a compact toiletry solution. The Borsali Clear TSA Bag with Handle it holds more than meets the eye and slips right into your weekender. If you want more pockets and packing options go for the hanging toiletry bag gift set.

• Jeans
• White Eyelet Top
• Brown Jacket
• Jumpsuit
• Cole Haan Loafers
• Sandals

Think mix-and-match:

• 1 pair of jeans or comfy trousers
• 2-3 tops (one dressy, one casual, one layering piece)
• 1 pair of walking shoes + 1 pair of slip-ons or sandals
• 1 day-to-night dress or jumpsuit
• A lightweight jacket or cardigan

Roll your clothes instead of folding to save space and reduce wrinkles or use packing cubes.

1. Pack a small pouch for:
   • Phone chargers
   • Car adapter and extra cord
   • AirPods or headphones
   • Portable phone battery

   The Clear TSA bag is a great option because you can totally see all of the contents in the bag!

2. Items such as printed hotel reservations, excursion tickets, AAA card and other trip documents can be kept neat and tidy in a folder or the Borsali Travel Wallet (incl. with Weekender Bag).

Long drives = hunger + boredom. Pack your favorite snacks (think protein bars, fruit, or trail mix) and a reusable water bottle. Load up on audiobooks or podcasts for the ride.

Hello, I’m Lauryn,

I have been traveling since I was a little girl, my first International trip was in college. I am an “overpacker” by nature and on my first trip to Italy, everything that could go wrong, luggage wise, went wrong. From my carryon being too big for the overhead compartment to not being able to ’drag’ my BIG suitcase over the Venice bridges and cobblestones - I started thinking there has to be a better way! I want to share with you great products and other tips I have learned along the way.
