If you live in the Midwest, summer means weekends at cabins and on lakes! Since I was a little girl, we always packed for the lake for the weekend in laundry baskets and threw them in the back of the station wagon. The vehicle has changed, but the laundry baskets remained a staple for packing up until I discovered this bag from Calpak.
This bag folds down to smaller than the size of a grocery bag, has 3 main compartments for spacious organization, is water-resistant interior/exterior to protect messes inside and out, has a carrying handle for easy transporting to and from the car, has 6 internal and 2 external pockets, and is your new best friend for travel. It is advertised as a car organizer, which it is wonderful for, but I absolutely love using it in place if the old laundry basket. If you ask anyone I clearly have an over packing problem, but putting that aside, this is an EXACT list of what I packed in this bag for a weekend away…
- 2 pair of underwear and 2 bras
- 2 pair of pajamas
- 2 workout outfits
- 3 swimsuits and 2 cover ups
- 2 jogger sets
- 2 pair of jeans and 2 pair of jean shorts
- 4 tops
- 1 dress
- 3 pair of shoes
- 2 ball caps and 1 beach hat
- My travel toiletry case and 2 brushes
- Blow dryer and curling Iron
This ALL fits in this bag, I am literally amazed! This bag would also be amazing for sports, packing to go out on a boat or to a pool, or for a bbq or other summer event. It is compact, organized, and fits a TON, an over packers dream.
I also use love this bag from Calpak as a gym bag or weekender bag. It is made from quilted fabric, is lightweight, has 9 pockets, including one for your shoes, and fits a ton. It is perfect for the gym, work, and travel giving this bag endless possibilities.
