Lay out your stuff, It makes you take less

Bring clothes that are interchangable

Remember clothes can be interchangeable and yes, you can wear that same skirt with two different shirts and a different necklace and it will look completely different. If clothes get wrinkled you can spray something like Downy Wrinkle Release and chances are there will be an iron and ironing board in your room.
