The city break is booked, the countdown is on, and now comes the tricky part — packing your suitcase. Planning what to bring for that weekend getaway can be surprisingly complicated, especially when there’s only room for one carry-on case. That’s exactly why our END. Weekend Getaway edit exists: think curated essentials for packing light, from smart travel toiletries to style-focused short break outfits that make the whole process smoother.
Keep it fresh and functional with small toiletries and Malin + Goetz travel kits. From zesty grapefruit face cleanser to cooling peppermint shampoo, these compact essentials — housed in travel-ready tubes — are your go-to for freshening up after a flight and getting ready to explore a new city, all without worrying about the dreaded luggage weight allowance dilemma.
Short breaks can be the trickiest to pack for, cramming everything into just one carry-on is no small feat. Perfecting packing starts with mastering a minimalist mindset and curating a capsule wardrobe. Discover versatile city break outfits that work effortlessly no matter the destination.
When figuring out which items to pack in your carry-on, the golden rule is: travel light.
