In Canada, that hat is called a toque. This is really useful, I find it much harder to pack carry on only in winter. Silk PJs are not within my budget, but I pack silky polyester long undies (from Lands End) instead of pajamas. They take up less space, and can double as a base layer on a cold day. A couple of pairs of long undies take up less space than heavier slacks and tops - I can alternate the two pairs, and then I can pack lighter weight tops and slacks. Silk scarves are a travel essential for me. I bring quite a few in various colours for every trip, and styled in different ways they can make completely different looks out of the same clothes.
Very cool (pun intended) tips! I use scarves to change the entire look of an outfit. I can go from casual to classy to dressy in seconds, and I never look like a slob.
If you want a good lip conditioner/healing balm, try the Avene Cicalfate lip balm. It’s the best I’ve found for cracked, chapped lips. Vaseline makes a big stick of body balm now. It’s not goopy or messy. I’ve honestly been using it under my eyes and on my nose, and I love it!
We love toques and shorts in winter. There will always be a Canadian in shorts in winter, the moment it gets up to zero Celsius in Winter, or anywhere near there. Especially in Alberta where it gets miserably cold often. 😂 Although right now this week it’ll be great above zero temps!
I wanted to thank you for all your help! My trip to San Diego from Orlando went great! I did pack in a carry-on. I got through TSA quickly. Funny thing in San Diego to come home back to Orlando, in the TSA they have dogs running in between all the people, then I did not have to takeoff my jacket or my shoes or any of that stuff. Did not have to pull out even my liquid bag. just walked through an old fashion metal detector. And pushed everything through the TSA screening. You gave me so much confidence and ease as I went through everything. I have not flown for 20 years. Thank you for making this a joyful experience! My only bummer, my carry-on ended up getting checked anyway, because there was too much carry-on baggage, and I chose the cheap seats, so by the time I got up there, it had to get checked. Murphy’s Law! But thanks again so much for your help. It was absolutely terrific.
I love my hat with the lining. My sick pillow case has traveled with me for 10+ years, Royal Caribbean ended up with my pillow case. Time for a New one. As a woman of color I’m picky about my hair and what I wear on it.
I use a 12x20 travel pillow with a silk pillow case (I ordered a king size zipper silk pillow case, cut it in half and added a second zipper, have 1 pillow on my bed & 1 in my travel bag.)
I live in MN but grew up in ND. Cold winter weather my whole life. I would recommend a coat that goes down past your rear end for traveling. You will stay warmer especially if there is a wind. This suggestion is for sightseeing travel, not skiing, sporty-type winter travel.
My packing hack: I use shower caps for my shoes. I collect them from the hotel rooms. I like them because I can cover shoes individually and tuck them around the perimeter of my suitcase .
Your videos are so great. You r eye mask photo on the plane was hysterical and adorable. Thank you for your tips! I'm getting so excited about an upcoming trip to Alaska in March and I'm try out a travel capsule now to figure out what I will bring 😊.
Two words: wool socks. I went to Russia during March and I was shocked how many in my tour group didn't pack wool socks. My feet were toasty warm, but to be fair, I'm a knitter so my socks are all hand knit and when you know, you know. My feet are definitely spoiled, still... wool socks. They don't have to be thick boot socks, you can wear thinner wool socks with regular shoes. I find when your feet are warm you can endure the cold longer. I'm thinking about adding backpack straps to my winter coats, I'm so intrigued by that coat you've featured before!! Where did you film this? I'm drooling over the Deruta vase in the bottom of the table under that mirror! (look at 14:20 for example)
They do; did you see the other 20 items to keep you warm? Sometimes when people know a brand sponsors, they do not look at the other items. Anyway, hope they help you pack this winter.
I didn’t see it on this video, but I cannot thank you enough for the recommendation of the Bernardo down jacket you recommended in a previous video. It’s the one with the backpack straps. What a great find! I used it recently on a 3 week trip to New York City, Toronto and New Jersey. From the freezing cold outside air to the overheated air in museums, art galleries and an aquarium, to be able to take my coat off and wear it like a backpack was a life saver! I had three people stop me and ask about it! With a belt bag and my coat on my shoulders, I was hands free! Thank you so much for an awesome recommendation!!
I just went to Canada and NY and I brought thermacare with the Velcro strap. You can wear it under anything, and if you get too hot, you can take it off and put it in a pocket or backpack.
Brilliant, cashmere and merino are the best. They can often be found in resale + charity shops of new is too costly. I love the duct tape on the packing cube!!
I’ve recently started using castor oil for dry eye, thicker eyelashes and eyebrows, face oil, and moisturizer. Last weekend I was with my 5 year old granddaughter who had severely chapped lips and chin. After her bath, we slathered it with oil, and it was 95% healed the next morning.
That Cable Knit Hoodie is to die for! ❤️ My birthday is this month, I might tell Hubby he doesn’t need to guess what to buy me. I can pick out my birthday gift myself! 😂
I'm going to Sweden to see my daughter, we're cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the Swedes (who really love our holiday!), and she warned me it's getting really cold and to be prepared. This will be my 4th trip to see her, but until now I've never really known what to pack that isn't too bulky and heavy. Thanks for some great recommendations!
Yes if you stick to a base thermal layer for extreme temps and thin effective fabrics like, wool, 100% silk and cashmere, you’ll be set. But you could be quite warm inside ahhhh!
Laurie, I have watched your very entertaining, thoughtful and practical videos for quite some time! Saying hello now from Duluth, GA, but actually from the last day of a Panama Canal cruise. We will fly home to very cold weather, from San Diego. As a chronic overpacker (what if) this video is going to finally instruct me to cut way back! When home I will use the list to order for a Northern European cruise in June, with days in Amsterdam. Thanks for your time and effort in making these videos for us! ❤ Sylvia
I bought this jacket on your review. It's really lightweight and has stretch material on the sides for movement. It's a really great jacket. FYI, I found it ran tight in the chest, so order size accordingly. I got the navy. Love it!
As always, lovely and practical recommendations for travel. I am glad you try to dispel the myth of 'winter packing pain'. I managed very nicely with a carryon in February to Seoul. I am looking forward to buying those silk PJ's for my next trip!

Hey Laurie! I love all your tips! I have been using them and I am successfully working on not overpacking. I do have a tip to share I started many years ago. I purchased a thin packable down vest from Eddie Bauer...it is 800 count down but packs into its pocket. It's very warm but not a puffy!
Hi Laurie. I have started taking a small humidifier with me. Hotels always seem dry to me regardless of the season. I got the little, round humidifier from Amazon. It has a diameter of 2” and just sits in a glass of water. It has helped so much with dry eyes and dry nose. I couldn’t find the humidifier I bought, but I found flower shaped ones by Triifon.
I watched many of your videos before a trip to Mallorca last month. Thank you!!! I traveled with a carry on and a backpack (purchased the one your recommended!) and it was great.
We call them “stocking caps” in Coastal SC cause they look like Christmas stocking cable knit. 😂 Great tips just for the winter in general, Laurie! Thank you!
I'm headed to Minnesota from Colorado next week, this is perfect timing, thank you. So many little things I haden't though of. Eye drops for Colorado are essential (native Colorado) it is the head but the thin cold air dries your eyes out.
As a add on to your list, I would recommend a packable down jacket. You can stuff it into one of it’s pockets and is lightweight if weight is an issue. Also, I didn’t know you went to school in the little apple. My parents went to school there.
I just wanted to say Laurie your travel tips are phenomenal and you are so fun to watch, thank you! I’m going to Vienna soon so this was very helpful 🌸
Please always test your travel shoes before you go. My test is for zero foot pain for the plane trip and walking tours. I have slip on patent leather for short treks to the restaurant/theater
I'm binge-watching all your carryon packing vids for an upcoming trip - thank you for the great tips! What is your best tip for labeling your small containers after you decant into them? Once out of their packaging they all look alike to me and I can't tell what's what - lol
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie walked around the yard (I live on six acres so it was a good walk!) and took it on and off several times an tugged on them! Really good solid clips!
Like the idiot I can be, I threw out my little light weight pouch to fold up my down jacket when moving to HI. Found that I can stuff it into a sandwich size Heafty freezer bag that zips. Saves so much space.
Try telling that to scotland! We have that humid cold which makes it feel colder to the bone. But for the rest of the planet yeah that it generally true haha
Another tip for winter travel is to wear a light coloured jacket. Mine is black, but today I bought a light grey wind and water resistant warm winter jacket for my upcoming UK and Brussels trip. It had occurred to me that walking around in winter in cities, crossing busy roads and getting dark early now in winter….it’s better to be visible!
That’s a fantastic tip! Have you seen my what to pack for a Christmas market trip? The light color will reflect those lights beautifully! As would the light colored hoodie.
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie : Yes I have. I’m going to Scotland after the Brussels 🎄markets…… my friend’s house I’m staying at there can be chilly🥶…..packing many layers and a hot water bottle!
Hello Laurie, Now that I am 59 I can’t tolerate my beautiful silk pillow case- too warm. I have found a company called Sleepletics. They use Celliant to make their cases. It is COOLING. Feels like silk. I turn my pillow around at night to get even cooler.. I will look for ECCO shoes. Thank you
Hi, I have not been there but would love to go! The LILYSILK one is amazing and never hot. I was worried since we are in hot Houston but it has been cool and so smooth!
😊I'm glad you are doing this video. Can you tell us more ideas about how you can package in a small backpack so Frontier doesn't charge me more money please? 😂 I'm going to spend Thanksgiving with my family 😅
Hi, I would pack as much as you can in your carry-on suitcase. Or leave more things at home, shop for things when you arrive, borrow some of their outerwear...
I bring fingerless gloves so I could use my smartphone for fingerprint. Bring a couple silk eye masks. Helps you sleep on plane and in hotel. My facial muscles relax wearing these when dark.
A question, any/all input appreciated! It’s probably a dumb question, but: I live in hot, way-far-south Florida, so boots and many “closed” shoes aren’t a big wardrobe staple. But what about socks? My feet and chicken legs want knee socks for warmth, but the socks stretch out my shoes sooo much. The old “Trouser socks” are thin, but not warm. This is a great video regardless-especially as another Deep South native who grew up with the idea that all sweaters are big and bulky. How did we do that? Laurie makes the huge point that layers can be as warm, and far easier to carry on-while wearing the coat, of course 😉 All the tips on packable clothes for cold weather are greatly needed and appreciated! Thank you!!
Hi! You may want to invest in one pair of waterproof boots like the black one. They have room for socks and maybe a pad? I highly recommend Hot Chillys but they can be thick. Maybe try Amazon so you can return them for free? These boots are free shipping and returns: rstyle.me/+VAr0XtHWIwNP4nYAlU2fcg
I love your travel tips and have used several in the past. We’re flying to Germany in 29 days to enjoy the Christmas markets! My son is stationed there and we’ll be enjoying 10 days with our new DIL and her lovely family. We’ve been warned about the cold temperatures but most wool blends make me itch 😕 Any suggestions for an alternative?
Okay I would try merino wool-or cashmere. But remember the tip from this video about getting hot-you will probably want to wear a t-shirt under a sweater. Here is a plain cashmere I own: rstyle.me/+YRlFyfxGQaB1o5eEDaqctA I bought two “cashmere” sweaters in September from M-‘s and they were super scratchy. But this gray one from the video is like a silky cashmere too.
Yeah, I'm allergic to any wool at all. Polyester is our friend. There are some very warm fleeces available, which work well, and are usually more economic.
Hey Laurie, I was researching carry on bags and on one channel a commentator said that "it's not an expansion zipper it's a COMPRESSION zipper". A light bulb went off.
In Canada, that hat is called a toque. This is really useful, I find it much harder to pack carry on only in winter. Silk PJs are not within my budget, but I pack silky polyester long undies (from Lands End) instead of pajamas. They take up less space, and can double as a base layer on a cold day.

Silk scarves are a travel essential for me. I bring quite a few in various colours for every trip, and styled in different ways they can make completely different looks out of the same clothes.
Those scarves really help travel outfits be versatile and keep you warm.
Very cool (pun intended) tips! I use scarves to change the entire look of an outfit. I can go from casual to classy to dressy in seconds, and I never look like a slob.
I love and appreciate good puns. Yes scarves can totally change the look of an outfit.@@huskeyfosterfail4980
My family has always called these type of hats toboggans.
If you want a good lip conditioner/healing balm, try the Avene Cicalfate lip balm. It’s the best I’ve found for cracked, chapped lips. Vaseline makes a big stick of body balm now. It’s not goopy or messy. I’ve honestly been using it under my eyes and on my nose, and I love it!
Backpack straps on the jacket 😲 thats brilliant.
Isn't it?! I ordered the thick long one, and it did not have straps. But mine in the video has them.
In Canada it's called a 'touque'😆
We love toques and shorts in winter. There will always be a Canadian in shorts in winter, the moment it gets up to zero Celsius in Winter, or anywhere near there. Especially in Alberta where it gets miserably cold often. 😂 Although right now this week it’ll be great above zero temps!
Was just going to say that. 😁
Texans aren't breaking out shorts until it hits near the 15c mark as long as it isn't windy.
@@KunaiKrazy 😂 I see neighbors in Canada breaking out shorts in -10 Celsius.
Ahhh, yay Canada! Beautiful country!

Oh I’m so glad your first time back flying was a success. That is a bummer for the bag.
My dad was in the US navy in WWII. He always called it a watch cap. Worn during chilly nights on watch.
Oh wow! Now we know.
I love the idea of taking a grocery bag to shove your jacket in so it's more compact and doesn't get dirty!!! I'm stealing that idea!!!!
The best ideas are shared or stolen😂😂
I like the hack where you put a grocerybag in the pocket of your coat, and then stuff your coat into it on the plane.👌
Yes, may use that that #hack this month!
I love my hat with the lining. My sick pillow case has traveled with me for 10+ years, Royal Caribbean ended up with my pillow case. Time for a New one. As a woman of color I’m picky about my hair and what I wear on it.
Yes, I highly recommend 100% silk. Someone on board was super happy to get your pillow case! I left my light yellow one in LA.
I use a 12x20 travel pillow with a silk pillow case (I ordered a king size zipper silk pillow case, cut it in half and added a second zipper, have 1 pillow on my bed & 1 in my travel bag.)
That works!
I live in MN but grew up in ND. Cold winter weather my whole life. I would recommend a coat that goes down past your rear end for traveling. You will stay warmer especially if there is a wind. This suggestion is for sightseeing travel, not skiing, sporty-type winter travel.
My packing hack: I use shower caps for my shoes. I collect them from the hotel rooms. I like them because I can cover shoes individually and tuck them around the perimeter of my suitcase .
Great idea!
Your videos are so great. You r eye mask photo on the plane was hysterical and adorable. Thank you for your tips! I'm getting so excited about an upcoming trip to Alaska in March and I'm try out a travel capsule now to figure out what I will bring 😊.
Yay have fun planning! Yep thankfully no one else saw that sleep facial expression
Two words: wool socks. I went to Russia during March and I was shocked how many in my tour group didn't pack wool socks. My feet were toasty warm, but to be fair, I'm a knitter so my socks are all hand knit and when you know, you know. My feet are definitely spoiled, still... wool socks. They don't have to be thick boot socks, you can wear thinner wool socks with regular shoes. I find when your feet are warm you can endure the cold longer.
I'm thinking about adding backpack straps to my winter coats, I'm so intrigued by that coat you've featured before!!
Where did you film this? I'm drooling over the Deruta vase in the bottom of the table under that mirror! (look at 14:20 for example)
I forgot to mention wool socks-I only like Hot Chillys brand.
Do you make them for others?
But isn't wool itchy? I could barely do a thin sheet blanket with a wool blanket in Perú
You would be surprised espeically if it is good quality wool. Merino wool is super soft most of the time. @@jclyntoledo
I had no idea about removable Poofs. And that blue silk shirt is beautiful!
I love how bright it is. Once I iron it it is good for a couple of wears.
Love LilySilk…. Especially their pillowcases
I love mine for everyday in the real.
Good morning 🦋 Thank you as always for sharing. You help a bunch.💞
Enjoy your journey in life and do what you love..
Hope you got some inspo-packing was near the end.
Awesome tips! Thank you for sharing with us! LilySilk has beautiful items!
They do; did you see the other 20 items to keep you warm? Sometimes when people know a brand sponsors, they do not look at the other items. Anyway, hope they help you pack this winter.

YES! So glad to know. I wore mine in Kohls in the men's department when it was super hot the other night.
I just went to Canada and NY and I brought thermacare with the Velcro strap. You can wear it under anything, and if you get too hot, you can take it off and put it in a pocket or backpack.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Just bought the jacket you recommended ❤❤❤❤BEST! JACKET! EVER! Going to Paris in March and this is going to be amazing!!!! TY!!!❤❤❤
Stocking capiswhat i grew up calling it. Beenie is new thing.
Wow!
Great tips! Thanks so much. I’ll be bringing my silk pillowcase with me from here on. 🌹🌹
My hair is never flat because of my 100% silk pillowcase. And no wrinkles on my face from pillows.
Brilliant, cashmere and merino are the best. They can often be found in resale + charity shops of new is too costly.
I love the duct tape on the packing cube!!
Yes, blue tape for covering clock and microwave lights in the hotel room too!
I always travel with my travel size humidifier. It's a total lifesaver for me because I have serious sinus issues.
I just found this one and it looks amazing too. Great add.
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie yes, especially for those dryer states you might travel too that you are not used to. I found mine on Amazon.
I’ve recently started using castor oil for dry eye, thicker eyelashes and eyebrows, face oil, and moisturizer. Last weekend I was with my 5 year old granddaughter who had severely chapped lips and chin. After her bath, we slathered it with oil, and it was 95% healed the next morning.
Oh my, that is wonderful! Thx for sharing.
years ago, I found sunscreen towelettes, and they are wonderfully handy to have on hand as a just-in-case item.
Oh I need to find them!
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie Sun-X currently sells at least a couple varieties.
Ooooh thanks for the tip!
That Cable Knit Hoodie is to die for! ❤️ My birthday is this month, I might tell Hubby he doesn’t need to guess what to buy me. I can pick out my birthday gift myself! 😂
I cannot tell you how warm it was in 38° temps going for coffee that weekend!
Sorry to be a stalker. 😅 Can you please tell me about the green top that you are wearing in this video! I love that color. 😊
I fall in love with that glove 😍
I'm going to Sweden to see my daughter, we're cooking Thanksgiving dinner for the Swedes (who really love our holiday!), and she warned me it's getting really cold and to be prepared.

Hi , thx for the great video . In England those hats are often known as "bobble hats"
Oh wow, I have never heard of that term Thanks!!
Thanks for the helpful tips. I live in Dallas and we are going to the Poconos in February. This will be my first trip to that type of climate.

An option is Avr saline nasal gel instead of vasaline. This was a suggestion I received from an allergy doctor.
Is this the Ayr product?
Ooh thank you!
Love all your tips, have traveled a bit and always learn something new from you.
Awesome! Thank you!
I bought this jacket on your review. It's really lightweight and has stretch material on the sides for movement. It's a really great jacket. FYI, I found it ran tight in the chest, so order size accordingly. I got the navy. Love it!

And with layers, so many of your outfit pieces stay clean-ish.
In Canada we call it a "toque." Definitely need it in Canada during the winter 😍
For sure!
Those are pretty silk and wool pieces. I've been meaning to add some silk to my travel wardrobe at some point. 🌺Heidi
Hi Heidi, do not miss the other 20 winter tips and essentials.

Coming back to this for ski season trips! Great tips as always, Laurie!
Opening day was this weekend. Thanks for watching and making high quality gear!
Great video as always! Love your tips and tricks. 😉
Thank you so much!
Watching this from Los Angeles where it's still in the mid 70s during the day (:
Same in Houston!! haha
Hi , love your tips on travel. Have found them most helpful…🤗
I am so glad the tips help Rebecca.
Hey Laurie! I love all your tips!

My family call those toboggans
Oh yes, I forgot about that term.
Hat can also be called a toboggan
I watched many of your videos before a trip to Mallorca last month. Thank you!!! I traveled with a carry on and a backpack (purchased the one your recommended!) and it was great.
I am so glad! Thank you.
We call them “stocking caps” in Coastal SC cause they look like Christmas stocking cable knit. 😂 Great tips just for the winter in general, Laurie! Thank you!
Like South Carolina??? I am so surprised.
I'm headed to Minnesota from Colorado next week, this is perfect timing, thank you. So many little things I haden't though of. Eye drops for Colorado are essential (native Colorado) it is the head but the thin cold air dries your eyes out.
Those little winter essentials are truly necessary! And those fit easily into a carry-on! Have a great trip too.
Once again an AUsome video. Love the grey sweater..wish they’d put that on a half off sale. Thanks for sharing!😎💖🛬💥
I hugged my mom at church last week, and she said, "Ooh that sweater is so soft." And today we are sweating in shorts. It is definitely an investment.
Thank you for the reminder of the hat, heading to North Carolina and then Chicago so I will need one 👍🏼
Yes and so easy to pack even in the pocket of a jacket.
I will be flying to NJ next month (January). I really appreciate this video!
Ooh have a beautiful trip!!
As a add on to your list, I would recommend a packable down jacket. You can stuff it into one of it’s pockets and is lightweight if weight is an issue.
Also, I didn’t know you went to school in the little apple. My parents went to school there.
I did add the waterproof jacket at the end. Great tip! Our teen is a freshman in Manhattan!
LOVE your Kansas State shirt💜💜💜
Awww, he was home when I made that part of the video.
We've always called those hats stocking caps. A beanie is a totally different thing to me.
Oh wow!
Right? I always thought of a beanie as one of those hats with a little propeller on top, ha!
I always traveled with mine. I think I left on my last trip. I’m looking for new ones.
I just wanted to say Laurie your travel tips are phenomenal and you are so fun to watch, thank you! I’m going to Vienna soon so this was very helpful 🌸
I am so glad you found the tips helpful. I tried not to sound salesy.
Please always test your travel shoes before you go. My test is for zero foot pain for the plane trip and walking tours. I have slip on patent leather for short treks to the restaurant/theater
Such an important travel tip!
I'm binge-watching all your carryon packing vids for an upcoming trip - thank you for the great tips! What is your best tip for labeling your small containers after you decant into them? Once out of their packaging they all look alike to me and I can't tell what's what - lol
Get a little labelmaker! I recently had all sorts of fun making labels for all my travel containers 🙂
I like washi tape from Michael’s or a dot of fingernail polish for a different way.
Thank you! @@TravelTipsbyLaurie
Love your teaching 🎉😂❤
Thank you! 😃
Beanie in Australia 😆
When I was growing up we used to call them stocking caps, but now I just call them "warm hats". 🙂
So many names.
So glad the puff is removable. I think they look silly. 😂
Oh, I love them lol.
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie The hat looks adorable on you as do your outfits!
Canada we call the first the hat a toque
I always wear a scarf traveling, season appropriate of course. My sister teases me. Guess who now travels with a scarf😂
Ha!
I bought the straps for my Columbia 3 in 1 jacket on Etsy! They have clips!
Yay, please let me know if they work.
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie walked around the yard (I live on six acres so it was a good walk!) and took it on and off several times an tugged on them! Really good solid clips!
Like the idiot I can be, I threw out my little light weight pouch to fold up my down jacket when moving to HI. Found that I can stuff it into a sandwich size Heafty freezer bag that zips. Saves so much space.
Wow so good to know. Hind sight is 20/20
I’m horrible about throwing stuff out that I’ll need later. @@TravelTipsbyLaurie.
Me too! @@kimcarroll1129
Re: dry air in the winter. Cold air does not hold moisture. That's why it's only humid when it's warm or hot. 😊
Try telling that to scotland! We have that humid cold which makes it feel colder to the bone. But for the rest of the planet yeah that it generally true haha
@@fishy527same in New Zealand
Another tip for winter travel is to wear a light coloured jacket.
Mine is black, but today I bought a light grey wind and water resistant warm winter jacket for my upcoming UK and Brussels trip.
It had occurred to me that walking around in winter in cities, crossing busy roads and getting dark early now in winter….it’s better to be visible!
That’s a fantastic tip! Have you seen my what to pack for a Christmas market trip? The light color will reflect those lights beautifully! As would the light colored hoodie.
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie : Yes I have.
I’m going to Scotland after the Brussels 🎄markets…… my friend’s house I’m staying at there can be chilly🥶…..packing many layers and a hot water bottle!
Smart add to the winter trip. I will be in Brussels. @@shelaghjackson9577
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie : I’ll keep an eye out for you…..I’ll be the one in the light grey jacket!😂
Image stuff for your lips is the best!!! I discovered that years ago. :)
I loved it!
I love a cute hat
They are so fun! The fleece-lined one was too hot during early Fall.
When i was in Germany, id wear panty hose all the time. It definitely kept my legs warm.
Don’t forget a scarf! You loose a lot of heat fro your neck - nice tips and video
Yes, a scarf is in this video too.
Yeah Kansas State!
We are so sad; because of a girl, he has quit and moved back home. We are escaping to an island next week so we can empty nest again.
Hello Laurie,
Now that I am 59 I can’t tolerate my beautiful silk pillow case- too warm.
I have found a company called Sleepletics. They use Celliant to make their cases. It is COOLING. Feels like silk. I turn my pillow around at night to get even cooler..
I will look for ECCO shoes. Thank you
Have you ever been to Iceland? I’m planning a trip there. If so, would love your input.
Hi, I have not been there but would love to go! The LILYSILK one is amazing and never hot. I was worried since we are in hot Houston but it has been cool and so smooth!
😊I'm glad you are doing this video. Can you tell us more ideas about how you can package in a small backpack so Frontier doesn't charge me more money please? 😂 I'm going to spend Thanksgiving with my family 😅
Hi, I would pack as much as you can in your carry-on suitcase. Or leave more things at home, shop for things when you arrive, borrow some of their outerwear...
I bring fingerless gloves so I could use my smartphone for fingerprint. Bring a couple silk eye masks. Helps you sleep on plane and in hotel. My facial muscles relax wearing these when dark.
Did you see the ones in this video? Love them.
A question, any/all input appreciated! It’s probably a dumb question, but: I live in hot, way-far-south Florida, so boots and many “closed” shoes aren’t a big wardrobe staple.
But what about socks? My feet and chicken legs want knee socks for warmth, but the socks stretch out my shoes sooo much. The old “Trouser socks” are thin, but not warm.
This is a great video regardless-especially as another Deep South native who grew up with the idea that all sweaters are big and bulky. How did we do that? Laurie makes the huge point that layers can be as warm, and far easier to carry on-while wearing the coat, of course 😉
All the tips on packable clothes for cold weather are greatly needed and appreciated!
Thank you!!
Hi! You may want to invest in one pair of waterproof boots like the black one. They have room for socks and maybe a pad? I highly recommend Hot Chillys but they can be thick. Maybe try Amazon so you can return them for free? These boots are free shipping and returns: rstyle.me/+VAr0XtHWIwNP4nYAlU2fcg
I call a winter hat a toque
Oh wow, and from what state or country is that?
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie Canada
In Canada your hat is called a toque!
Yes so funny. But true
I love your travel tips and have used several in the past. We’re flying to Germany in 29 days to enjoy the Christmas markets! My son is stationed there and we’ll be enjoying 10 days with our new DIL and her lovely family. We’ve been warned about the cold temperatures but most wool blends make me itch 😕 Any suggestions for an alternative?
Okay I would try merino wool-or cashmere. But remember the tip from this video about getting hot-you will probably want to wear a t-shirt under a sweater. Here is a plain cashmere I own: rstyle.me/+YRlFyfxGQaB1o5eEDaqctA I bought two “cashmere” sweaters in September from M-‘s and they were super scratchy. But this gray one from the video is like a silky cashmere too.
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie thank you for the link! I just purchased one in Taupe. 🙂
I have a red one and a blue one.@@cheric4739
stocking cap or beanie
Wish I could wear wool!!! 🥺
I break out in hives like I’ve been rolling around in a red ant hill 😳
Ha! It is usually itchy for me too.
Yeah, I'm allergic to any wool at all. Polyester is our friend. There are some very warm fleeces available, which work well, and are usually more economic.
@@pamgasking736 I LOVE fleece’s!! 😻
Have you tried alpaca wool instead of merino?
Oh, so that is why I like your accent. I am from GA too. The Texas accent grates on my nerves.
Hey Laurie, I was researching carry on bags and on one channel a commentator said that "it's not an expansion zipper it's a COMPRESSION zipper". A light bulb went off.
I am not following you. Why did the light bulb go off? What did it help you do?
@@TravelTipsbyLaurie you expand the suitcase, pack, close, THEN shut the expansion zipper. I always thought you opened it to get more stuff in. 😅
Love it! @@lynnkihara2323
Aquafor is a great substitute for Vaseline. Just an FYI.
Thanks our son has it from his first tattoo. It's huge and will take me forever to use lol.
next video, please include the link for the cute puppy. I want to order a couple of them. 😊
SOOO cute and helpful!
Stocking cap😊
Which country is that word used? Cute! Sounds like Christmas.
Bennie, in new orleans
Really??? I’m surprised.
Hi ❤
Hello 😊
I just call that a winter hat or a stocking cap/hat. If I am talking to one of my younger friends, I may call it a beanie as to not age me. 😅
Yep, my hubby is from Arizona and called it a beanie like some Massachusett friends.
