Summer is the perfect time of year to take road trips! Whether you want to make a couple short weekend trips or you have plans to go across the country, there are a few must-haves that you need no matter the distance you plan to travel!
1! Reusable Water Bottle
One of the easiest things to do in the car is not drink enough water. Time passes and before you know it, you have hardly drunk any water throughout the day. One of the best ways to keep up with your hydration is to find a reusable water bottle that encourages you to drink. Maybe you want one that has times listed on it to keep you on track or you prefer one that has a straw. Either way, a reusable water bottle will be one of the items you use most on your trip!
2) Sunglasses
When you are traveling, it is important to protect your eyes while you are driving in the sun all day long. A great pair of sunglasses not only provides the protection for your eyes, but it is a fun and stylish accessory that you can wear throughout the summer. Find a pair that is flattering to your face shape, whether that is an oversized pair or a small pair with oval shaped lenses.
3) Loungewear
We get it, it’s summer. Thinking about loungewear may not be the first thing on your mind for a a road trip. However, there is plenty of loungewear that will not only leave you comfortable in the car, but also looking on trend. Find a sweatsuit that will allow you to sit in the car for hours and not be feeling miserable and ready to change clothes the second you arrive to your destination.
4) Phone Mount and Charger
If you plan to be in the car for an extended amount of time, a phone mount and phone charger are must-haves! You do not want to risk your phone dying mid trip, especially if you are using your phone for navigation. A phone mount is the perfect way to have your phone in front of you if you need to look at directions to your destination.
These essentials will help you be prepared for any road trip you have coming up so that you can enjoy your time in your car without any added stress. After all, road trips are supposed to be fun! Happy travels!
