With the stress of finals already starting to weigh us down, there is no need to stress over Thanksgiving packing! Â Packing for Thanksgiving always feels overwhelming but a short five days at home only requires a light carry on. Whether you’re spending the week with family or friends, just a few key items can spruce up the limited clothes we’ve left behind in our empty home closets.Â
Â
1. A Cozy Sweater
Thanksgiving break is all about R&R, so wear your comfiest sweater on the plane that you can also wear when lounging around the house.Â
Â
2. Your favorite pair of jeans
Dress them up for Thanksgiving dinner with the family or dress them down for movie marathons with friends.Â
Â
3. Your cutest going-out topÂ
Show off your newest, favorite top to old friends! Think flowy and simple.Â
Â
4. Warm Jacket
Let’s face it: unless you’re from Florida, it’s gonna get chilly.Â
Â
5. Booties/ Moto BootsÂ
Comfy enough to wear on the plane but stylish enough for going out with your high school friends.
Â
6. Leggings
Easy to pack and go perfectly with all of the above.Â
Â
Happy Thanksgiving!
