Travel<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n<p>First things first: consider the <a href=\"https:\/\/gogreentravelgreen.com\/best-travel-accessories-for-women\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">accessories<\/a> you\u2019ll be bringing along.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, humans judge other humans by what they adorn their bodies with; that is something we find ourselves guilty of time and time again.<\/p>\n<p>Trappings like bags, shoes, clothes, belts, scarves, and jewelry are just some of the things that our eyes zero in on when someone walks into a room.<\/p>\n<p>As banal as this may sound, how much money we make is directly reflected in the size of our diamonds and the number of designer brands decorating our person.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get us wrong, though; not everybody thinks this way.<\/p>\n<p>Not all of us treat jewelry as if it\u2019s the be-all and end-all of life.<\/p>\n<p>What you can\u2019t argue with, however, is that owning expensive jewelry does add to your worry.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s a family heirloom or something you bought with your own money, you\u2019re concerned about how it\u2019s taken care of, where it\u2019s stored, or how it\u2019s packed.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s so easy to forget that your pile of irreplaceable rings was left next to the sink but, if you\u2019re lucky enough, you ended up leaving those rings right next to the sink of your own bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the problem here is when you leave your jewelry next to the sink of a hotel room thousands of miles away.<\/p>\n<p>As if owning jewelry isn\u2019t problematic enough, it\u2019s even more troublesome when you have to travel.<\/p>\n<p>So, what do you do?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pack_the_Right_Jewelry_for_Travel\"><\/span>Pack the Right Jewelry for Travel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Not all types of jewelry are fit for travel.<\/p>\n<p>Hoop earrings, for instance, can potentially get you in a lot of trouble on the road.<\/p>\n<p>As stunning as these pieces may look, they could easily get caught on things like your carry-on, another person\u2019s travel bag, or worse, a thief\u2019s determined fingers.<\/p>\n<p>There are pieces that are so easy to lose in the chaos of airports and hotel lobbies.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the time, you don\u2019t even notice that you\u2019ve lost something until hours later when you\u2019re miles away from where your valuables were likely to have been left behind or stolen.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, these situations are stressful and something you\u2019d rather not be experiencing in another country where there is no loved one in sight to bring you comfort.<\/p>\n<p>When <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsa.gov\/travel\/security-screening\/whatcanibring\/items\/jewelry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">traveling with jewelry<\/a>, keep these must-follow rules in mind:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bring jewellery that doesn\u2019t hurt to lose<\/li>\n<li>Keep the jewelry you pack at a minimum<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A simple white gold band is sometimes enough.<\/p>\n<p>After all, you don\u2019t have to don too much jewelry to look sophisticated; you just need to choose the right style.<\/p>\n<p>A minimalist approach to the whole thing can potentially save you from a whole lot of stress.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jewelry_You_Shouldnt_Pack\"><\/span>Jewelry You Shouldn\u2019t Pack<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

way to pack jewelry is simply to leave them at home.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, jewelry is necessary for some of those important trips you\u2019ll be taking, but, for the most part, they\u2019re just too much trouble.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, we\u2019re not saying that you completely forego bringing any jewelry along with you, but what we\u2019re trying to get across is that you pack only the pieces that you don\u2019t mind losing.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t happen to have any of those, then it\u2019s better to have a jewelry-free trip.<\/p>\n<p>If you do happen to own jewelry that won\u2019t hurt you too much to lose, then <a href=\"https:\/\/gogreentravelgreen.com\/how-to-pack-a-suitcase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pack some of those pieces inside your suitcase<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s possible that you haven\u2019t actually thought about this yet, so we\u2019ll give you time.<\/p>\n<p>Go over the items inside your jewelry box and ask yourself the following questions as you consider each piece:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Would it break my heart if I lost this?<\/li>\n<li>Is it even possible to replace this piece?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If your answers are somewhere along the lines of \u201cyes\u201d and \u201cno\u201d respectively, then make sure those pieces stay right where they are.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if your answers are \u201cmeh\u201d or \u201cdon\u2019t care\u201d, then go ahead and throw those pieces into your travel bag this instant.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Actual_Packing\"><\/span>The Actual Packing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now, for the part you\u2019ve been waiting for, the packing.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re going to be honest: packing jewelry is not the most pleasant experience.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s necessary, sure, but it\u2019s not likely something you\u2019re going to enjoy doing.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine handling all those tiny parts that, when lost, could easily render your pieces useless.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, you have those really long chains that so easily get knotted together\u2014not fun at all.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some tips on how to pack jewellery for travel that should help you handle the situation a whole lot better:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Necklaces\"><\/span>Necklaces<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Necklaces are a pure nightmare to deal with when traveling.<\/p>\n<p>These pieces seem like they\u2019re hell-bent on making you lose all of your hair.<\/p>\n<p>As tough as your stunning necklaces are to deal with when you\u2019re not traveling, it\u2019s not even close to how mad they can make you on the road.<\/p>\n<p>When packing necklaces, it\u2019s best to keep things at a minimum.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll want to bring, at most, two necklaces for your trip, including one that you can wear every day and a slightly fancier one that\u2019s perfect for a wedding or any other official event you\u2019ve been invited to.<\/p>\n<p>Ideally, you should pack your necklaces inside any of these three options: a plastic bag, straws, or a silk jewelry bag.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rings\"><\/span>Rings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As for your rings, you can tuck them inside a small plastic bag or a silk jewelry bag.<\/p>\n<p>Before you do, however, make sure they\u2019re well organized in a jewelry roll or organizer.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bracelets\"><\/span>Bracelets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For bracelets, you\u2019ll need either a rolled-up hand towel or washcloth to serve as the organizer.<\/p>\n<p>Then, tuck these towels, with your bracelets, inside a ziplock to keep any of the pieces from wandering about.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Earrings\"><\/span>Earrings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Earrings are simple enough to pack, but if you\u2019re not bringing an organizer, here\u2019s what you should do:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use buttons<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using one button per pair, insert each earring into a buttonhole.<\/p>\n<p>Then, gather all these buttons with earrings and place them inside a jewelry bag.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use cardboard<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Using a pen, punch tiny holes grouped together by pairs into a piece of cardboard and then insert your earrings through the holes.<\/p>\n<p>Place the cardboard inside a plastic bag to prevent any earrings from falling off and getting lost.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_Jewellery_Bag\"><\/span>Your Jewellery Bag<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Your jewelry becomes a lot of less of hassle to pack when you take advantage of these great organizers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jewelry box<\/li>\n<li>Pill
