Booking:
No matterwhere you go : Domestic or International always have prior ticket and visa bookings to avoid last minute cancellations or stress...
Everything is online now so do your booking at least 15 days prior.
Hotels can be booked thru Tripadvisor.com for best rates and a hassle-free booking

Planning:
Planning a trip is quintessential given that the moment you go somewhere there are so many things to do and so less time, even 15 days, forget 4 days is less time to truly explore...
Read destination Travel Guides, blogs, newspaper articles or magazine City Reviews, and then list out the things you want to do and then plan accordingly as to what you'll do when.


Packing:
Honestly, not meaning to boast, but I'm a packing pro! I flew the first time when I was five months old, and since then I have had the opportunity to pack at least once a year!


So, first thing first, the main purpose of packing is clothes...I always count the places I go to and accordingly make outfits. Like it wont be 4 days 4 outfits, it may be 10 or 3...
So make outfits, these denims those jackets and these heels. Pack for beach, cold, sport, party and casual! You never know what change of plans may occur. So fold all your clothes neatly without spoiling the ironing and arrange a base layer and so on in your suitcase.

Suitcase: buy chic yet spacey suitcases, usually 16kg ones do good for 7 day trips, bigger one is 20-22kg for more days. I bought the skybags by VIP at the cost of 5,000 and its just so pretty in blue and white!

Don't forget to pack nightwear! Been there! I was so excited I forgot :P repeating nightwear is fine so dint take too many, I usually just take 2 pairs for 4 days..

Always pack few accessories that will go allng with modt of your outfits... Scarfs, jackets, handbags, take as few as possible and light weight ones.

Lingerie: essentials according to events, camisoles, tubes and tights no matter what. Pack extras and neutral onesthat would go along all your outfits

Travel kit: well everyone has their own customisations but yet here are some basics to carry:
Tissues, wet wipes , cotton clouds, band aid, face wash, moisturiser, hair ties, comb, mints, perfume, hand sanitizer, basic medications.

Makeup: always carry light unless you're going for a fashion show or something. I cary my CC cream, compact powder, lipsticks, lip balm, eye liner.
Buy travel pouches or just any zipper pouch would do. The blue aztec one is from F-21 and the orange one is from ginger and the cheetah print is a pouch I got along with lipglosses ( check the gift guide to know more)


Footwear: carry one pair of heels, one pair of flats and one pair of bellies. Pack them separately in plastic bags or shoe bags...



Before leaving: 
Check and reconfirm if you've kept your Passport, tickets, visa
Online Check-in: do it ALWAYS, check- in starts 24 hours prior to boarding.
Mobile Charger: forgetting that would be a mess
head phones: travelling would be a bore without earphones 
Novel: for crazy readers like me the hours spent in the flight and at the terminal are blissfully meant for novels...
