Every season, we’re really lucky to feature amazing female-founded brands, and this summer is no exception. So we had to ask them: What’s something you can’t travel without? Check out their must-haves below.
“I spend a lot of time on red-eyes and I need a pair of leggings, sneakers, and a cashmina — that’s the only way I can really sleep! The other thing I can’t travel without is my dog, Simba. She’s a rescue from Mykonos. We think she’s a wheaten poodle mix and she’s got an Instagram account (@ms_simba). She travels with me everywhere — she’s my companion and best friend.” – Suzanne Lerner, President of Michael Stars
“A few super soft t-shirts. They’re comfy on the plane, you can layer them under a sweater or jacket, and they take up no room in your suitcase.” – Kate Cutler, Co-Founder of bkr
“My Big Tutu bkr. I bring it through security empty and fill it on the other side. It helps me stay hydrated so when I get off the plane my skin is still glowing, my lips are still pink, and I know that I can run straight into a meeting and not look like I just got off a plane.” – Tal Winter, Co-Founder of bkr
“It sounds crazy, but I can’t travel without a little journal or a tape runner. I love recording our memories while they are fresh, so I stick memorabilia down or take notes about funny things that I don’t want to forget.” – Amy Tan, Founder of Amy Tangerine
“As someone who travels extensively for work to spread Juice Beauty’s Clean Organic beauty brand ethos, convenience with uncompromising efficiency is the most important consideration in my skin care regimen. I always reach for our top selling Stem Cellular Anti-Wrinkle Solutions Kit. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do and bon voyage!” – Karen Behnke, Founder of Juice Beauty
“I can’t travel without my iPad and headphones, obvi. For any beach vay-k, a cute cover-up is a must (which is why I’m so obsessed with the Michael Stars Ruana!) and a pair of wedges that go from day to night in a flash.” – Katie Ann Rosen Kitchens, Editor-in-Chief and Co-Founder of FabFitFun
“I love to pack as many new items as possible when I’m traveling, even if it’s just a new mascara. When everything feels special, it adds another level of excitement to a vacation. I love traveling overseas, especially to visit my family in Australia so I always keep my passport protected in a cute case as an obvious travel essential.” – Jennifer Kassell, Co-Founder of Understated Leather
“I can’t leave home without a pair of hoop earrings (currently, my fave is our peace hoops). My goal is to not have to check a bag, so I never forget to “travel size” all of my beauty products.” – Kris Nations, Co-Founder of Kris Nations
“I always travel with my Kris Nations delicate gold cuff. It’s like my wedding ring for my wrist — it goes everywhere with me because it’s so simple and doesn’t get in the way.” – Kim Nations, Co-Founder of Kris Nations
