“My oversized Nanushka bag is the perfect carry-on – it fits everything without feeling bulky – and my new Yaitte cap and Jacquemus x Linda Farrow sunglasses are the perfect combo for relaxed airport style. I like to keep my beauty essentials to a minimum: a Medik8 sheet mask  and my signature scent, Mojave Ghost by Byredo. It’s light, fresh, and instantly makes me feel like myself. My Burga power bank is always fully charged – the bold prints add a fun twist. Finally, I find a silk scarf tied to my bag elevates my airport style.”

"I never travel without a sweater and this lobster one is fun and playful. There’s a claw clip in my bag at all times too  and eye patches  are a must, especially on long-haul flights. I cannot recommend the Inde Wild Lip Balms enough, particularly the ‘Caffeine Addict’ shade. It always makes me feel that bit more put together, especially after travelling. A pair of flip flops is always a good idea and I throw everything into this trusty woven oversized tote – practical but still elevated."

My tote of choice this summer is this canvas style from Longchamp – I love the little bamboo detail. My hand luggage is always quite similar to my everyday bag essentials, and this includes a Beauty Pie clear make-up case with all my beauty must-haves. I always like to carry a hand sanitiser and this Aesop one feels a little more luxe. I also have a mini hair brush with me, like this one from Minimalista The Label. Other pieces I always have are this red Smythson passport holder, a pair of glasses, plenty of Slip scrunchies and a cosy sweatshirt.

Whether it’s a long or short-haul flight, my hand luggage essentials never change. I always travel with a basket bag – perfect for both beach days and city exploring. I never leave the house without a pair of sunglasses and some form of lip gloss – the Fenty Lip Mask is my go-to. My skincare must-haves are non-negotiable: 111SKIN Cryo Eye Masks and REN Skincare Eye Cream come with me every time. It’s super handy having them in the clear Space NK travel bag. Finally, no trip is complete without my  journal – there’s something grounding about capturing the little moments along the way.

I don't really go anywhere without my Kosas Cloud Set Powder or Caudalie Beauty Elixir – including the plane. Alongside my Kindle and several lip balms, I’ll also bring a collection of sunnies. These H&M ones are the perfect indoor-outdoor style thanks to their lighter tint and oversized shape. When it comes to the bag itself, Dragon Diffusion’s woven styles are a year-round staple. Spacious but chic, it makes a joggers-and-sweatshirt look ten times cooler.
