THE PERFECT PLUS SIZE TRAVEL CAPSULE WARDROBE 2024
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 06. 2024
- This is my capsule wardrobe experiment for traveling. I am a self proclaimed over-packer and am trying to see what I can do to dwindle down what I take so that I can have a lighter and more efficient wardrobe.
I will be traveling to Italy in the Fall and this exercise is in preparation for that trip. I hope this video helps my fellow Plus Size over packers and regular over packers alike!

Thank you so much for this! As a plus size girl who does not want to pay to check my luggage, I searched high and low for packing tips. I went through the smaller girls' videos and kind of worked my packing from there but it was so hit and miss. There just isn't enough out there for us girls! This is so much appreciated--thank you again!!!
That is one of the reasons I made this! It’s one thing to fly carry-on only when you’re very thin. But it is much more difficult being plus size as our clothing takes up a lot more room. I’m so glad you found this video helpful!
Great capsule from an over packer. Dont forget pjs.
Good call! I could easily fit it in the remaining room in the luggage or the personal item.
Great video! Plus size packing in a carry-on is a challenge, but I just did it for a trip to Canada. With a cpap!
WOW! It's tough but even harder with bringing a Cpap with you!
I forgot about the versatility of a little black dress. Thank you.
No problem, they are an amazing piece to have in any wardrobe!
I'm not plus size but this is a great plan for everyone!! l'm going to Italy mid-October to mid- November and am facing some shifts in the weather. Challenging! 😊 Subscribed!!
Yay! Thank you! I am going to Italy in October too, have you been before?
I loved the try on! I loved how you put everything together
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Finally, a real woman with good taste giving advice!!
Awe thank you!
From one over packer to another, you did an awesome job with that. 👍 I can't wait to see your trip video.
Awe thank you 😊
This is one of the best videos I've seen for plus size packing and capsule wardrobe. Thank you for putting the outfits together - it was so helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow, what a great capsule! Was happy to see you included a lot of items with personality, but they really all went great together!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video
I’m really glad to see this video. Excellent job! There are a few plus size carry-on only travel capsule YTers with similar videos, but they are “smaller fats” and their options tend to be functional vs styled. Im a 3x/4x carry-on only traveler, and it took a lot of trial and error for me to finally get 30+ unique outfits into a single carry on, which I just recently packed for a 3-month trip. And the trick is exactly what you showed: a capsule with a color scheme, being sure to include layering pieces like cardigans or jacks or button-up shirts, ensuring every top or top+layer combo matches every bottom, and ROLLING your items to pack. My other packing “secret” is to only pack clothes, pjs, and shoes in the suitcase and put everything else in the personal item (including bras and panties, which can be hard to find in large sizes in brick and mortar stores outside of the US, in the event your carry on gets gate checked and lost/delayed). So your video isn’t just theoretical, it’s 100% practical and doable, even for larger fats. Thanks again for the great content!
Thank you so much! That is why I made this video, all other carry-on capsule wardrobes are done by much smaller people. I was pleasantly surprised that it all fit in the carry on with quite a bit of room left and I also had the personal item bag that was empty. Where did you travel over the 3 month trip?
@ThickGirlzGuide yes! DN Danie and It's The Kelly's do great fat packing videos too. I'm headed to Portugal and Canada!
@@_brandixx awesome! I will check them out and you trip sounds like two great places to visit!
This was very helpful! I’m heading to London in a little more than a week and trying carryon only. You’re the only plus size person I’ve found! Thanks again!
So glad you found it helpful!
Thanks for calling 16 "on the brink"! I just found you and I love your content ❤️
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you for putting together a video like this. As a plus size girl this makes me feel 100% confident I can do this for my European trip next year!!
Awesome! So glad you found it helpful!
This was so helpful! I am also a true plus size girl and I've always been an over-packer, so it was great to see that it is possible. Would you be willing to do one for winter travel, since cold weather clothing is bulkier? Thank you again!
I’m so glad it was helpful! I am planning to do a winter capsule video later this year 😊
This is probably the best video I've watched on this topic, so thank you! I would also love to see a winter version on this!!
I'm amazed you could fit all that in. Im going to Europe for 6 weeks soon and can't get quite that much in my suitcase, so well done! Lovely capsule wardrobe, super cute outfits.
I was shocked too! Have fun on your trip!
Thank the Lord. Finally a truly plus size lady who's my size. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I just found you. New subscriber here.
Love, love, love pouchette matise, I have it in 4 colour ways. Great choice of bag.
Welcome to the Thick Girl Gang! I'm glad you found me too! The Pochette Metis is such a fantastic bag! It's big enough to hold everything you need and so chic!
The try on was amazing!!! Your style is so cute! I NEED a denim shirt and that handbag!!
Thank you so much!!
Loved this wardrobe you put together. You look so cute in all of them. And i love the packaging footage as well.
Glad you liked it!!
Use a baby wipe it works till it can be washed and use ivory bar soap it wash it out but the best soap for is old fashion lye soap cold water wash on folded fabrics. Hot water on wholes.
Interesting, I did not know Baby wipes are good for preventing stains!
The outfits look great on you.
I’m an overpacker for sure.
Thank you! It's so hard because I love having options when I'm traveling lol
Love the outfits! The skirt is awesome! Beautiful lady!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video!
I think you made excellent choices. Being a curvy girl as well, I am always trying to get a good balance of pants, dresses and tops and sweaters. Also great color combinations as well. I also pack a packable duffel for your clothes and souvenirs go in your hard case. You can check your bag on the way home if you have too. I did 2 weeks in carry on only in Italy 2 times so far and it is pretty easy. Hope you have a great trip.
That's awesome! My trip will be a little over 2 weeks so it's good to know that you easily did it with a carry on only! What areas did you visit?
You did an awesome job coordinating your outfits. You have good taste!
Awe thank you!
Looks great!!
Thank you
This was great! You have inspired me to try this on my next trip!!! Thank you!
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
I needed this so much. As I'll be traveling overseas this October 2024. I'm very tall but I Carry my weight in my stomach. Yet I need to be comfortable at all times. Plus I don't want to over pack. Great video 🎉
Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful!
Absolutely love the fashion show. Thank you.
Glad you enjoy it!
Thank you so much for making this video! Interesting and super helpful!
No problem! I'm glad it was helpful!
Wow! Thank you! You gave me so many awesome ideas!!
I'm so glad!
Fantastic video!!!!
Thank you very much!
Oh how I miss Charming Charlie!!! I wish something like it would come back! In my youth it was Accessory Lady. We have Francesca’s but I’ve never been impressed with them. However that said I usually stick to a silver or gold necklace with a heart pendant and huggy hoop earrings when traveling. Thanks for the video!
Me too!! I damn near lived at Charming Charlie! It was my favorite store
Great outfit ideas!
Thank you! Glad you like them
Outfits are so cute! Love the looks!
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Awesome!
Thank you!
I'd be so curious to also see outfit ideas for a winter/cold weather, 3-5 day trip in a carryon!
I am planning to do a winter capsule wardrobe video later this year! That one is going to be even more of a challenge as the clothing and shoes are extra bulky
I wonder if the 5-4-3-2-1 method would help? I am a smaller sized plus, but have done 3 bottoms (1 worn on the plane) and 4 tops = 12 possible outfits. Add 2 layering pieces and you have 24 outfits & wear one layer on the plane and dress in layers… wearing the warm layers on the plane? It has helped me really narrow down and pack super small in an underseat. I wear my boots & take a pair of tennis shoes. You may already know of this method, but I just thought I would mention it for the winter packing as that is what has helped me. It is hard to figure out what to take at times & still have style. This is pretty minimal but I have done it for two weeks - when visiting my folks so I could wash and wear. It is harder when one has no way to wash clothes easily though & that might be the biggest challenge actually. 🤔 I am going to get to test this out for myself soon for 2 weeks & a roadtrip and trying to wash on the way 😬 So hoping I can make it work! 🤞🏻
Great video. You put together so many outfits
Thank you!! 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow this video is amazing. This help me out a whole lot. Thank you.
I'm so glad!
Pack your socks inside the cross body! And the orange long drapey piece is called a duster
Great tip!
Thank you for this video, going to the UK in April.
Hope you enjoy it and found it helpful!
Yes thank you so much for sharing. I just might go too my friends place in Florida.
Glad you found it helpful! And yesssss go to Florida and have a great time!
I love the burnt orange@🎉
It's such a great universal piece!
This is perfect! Thank you so much just what I was looking for. I love you tried the outfits on and showed us how to mix and match not just the pieces. I subscribed 😊
Glad it was helpful! Welcome to the Thick Girl Gang!
Great video!! Your strategy and outfit ideas are great for any size woman! I’m doing a similar capsule for 10 days in Europe, even though I’m checking a bag I want room for the goodies I buy there!! …wish me luck! 😉 Thank you! PS, I have the same backpack as you! I’m hoping it’ll work well as my carryon with a cross body purse as my personal item.
Awesome! That is probably what I will do when I travel to Italy later this year, I also want room for bringing back stuff. I love the Lovevook backpack, I hope you do too!
Thank you for not self tanning and talking about some imaginary weight loss journey! Acceptance is the key and it starts within us.
Haha, oh I tried self-tanning one time and it went terrible...never again! And you have to pack and have clothing for the size you are now. It's important to dress for your current body not the body you wish you had. Travel will not be enjoyable if you're in uncomfortable clothing/shoes etc the entire time.
Great video! Can you link that burnt orange jacket? Its amazing!
Thank you so much. That orange jacket was from Torrid from like two years ago so unfortunately it’s no longer available. I hope they bring something similar to it out this year.
Thank you for making this video! It seems that all the capsule wardrobe creators are a size zero, how does that relate to real people?
You're so welcome! Glad it was helpful!
While traveling you can ship home souvenirs. It’s usually not that pricey. Hotels can help with shipping
Yes! That's a great idea!
You have nice tastes in clothes 😍
Awe thank you
Good job! I'm going to Italy in April and was looking for packing ideas. Hope you have a good trip!
Thank you! You too! What cities are you visiting?
I lived in Italy for 3 years. I have a few tips. Be prepared that the water is not fit to drink. Plan for cold and hot. The weather changes like crazy. Also, bug spray! Enjoy your trip!!!
@@paisleyhunter thanks for the tips!
@@ThickGirlzGuidewe will be going to the Amalfi Coast, Rome, Florence and Venice. It’s 16 days long. Can’t wait! 😊
I hate to be "that person" but with everything that's going on over there, you really might be safer staying at home. At least keep that as an option just in case full blown war breaks out overseas. You don't want to get caught out there like that.
Great video thank you. I would like to know which brand your carry on case is please
It's Martha Stewart brand. I found the set at TJMaxx but can not find it anywhere online to link it for you. Sorry!
Hhheeeeyyyyyyy girlie ❤ long time!
Hey Lady! How have you been?
Thank you for the inspiration. May I ask you what brand your green carry-on luggage is?
It's Martha Stewart luggage and I found it at TJMaxx. I have never seen it again and I cannot find any Martha Stewart luggage anywhere online either. I was trying to find a link to it for you but it's nowhere.
Thank you for your effort. I just love the look of your luggage. It is a good size and does look very nice. @@ThickGirlzGuide
Excellent clip. Can you please tell me what the filled bag weighed. In Australia, carry is usually on 7kg total? If it's heavier, how about a challenge of packing in 7kg total? Thanks
I didn't weigh it, but I will have to look into making a video with carry on weight limits.
Where did you purchase the black and white stripped tank?
I think it was from Target, I got it a few years ago
I liked the visual of making the capsule wardrobe. Unfortunately, for me, I'm usually too smelly to wear a shirt more than once! Good job tho
Got it, that does make carry-on only even harder. Especially in the Summer months.
Where is the denim shirt from?
It’s from Torrid, I think they still have it too
What about sleepwear?
Looks like we will be going commando lol. J/k, there was definitely room in the carry on for an additional tank and sleep shorts. Or you could absolutely fit it in the personal item bag too.
Nice haul, what about socks, underwear, bras, swimsuit fitting into suitcase?
Thank you and there was about half the other side of the suitcase that you could fit all of that in easily, plus the entire personal item that could be used as well. So definitely more than enough space.
First
Yay! 🎉
Tents can be bought anywhere.
Relevance?
You're so basiccccccc. Nobody cares what you have to say.
