I never go away without…

Even with the tightest luggage restrictions, we all have our own non-negotiables when it comes to packing. We asked some of our favourite journalists, content creators and experts to let us in on the one thing they always make sure to take with them…

Oversized sunglasses

“As a beauty editor, I feel obliged to say my SPF50, which, of course, I am never without home or away. But the truth is I can’t go anywhere without sunglasses. They epitomise holiday for me – and the larger, the better.”

Jessica Diner, beauty expert

Comfortable sandals

“A pair of comfortable sandals. I’m not the type to sit on my sun lounger for hours — even if my kids would let me — and I love to explore everywhere on foot (I can’t drive!). So, footwear is the most important thing I pack – especially if it’s a short trip, I’ll only bring one pair of shoes.”

Katherine Ormerod, fashion and décor journalist

A versatile shirt

“A crisp white shirt and SPF, always have SPF!”

Thandi Maqubela, legal director and content creator
