Take a peek at my top 5 Essence Fest moments, including stellar performances that blew me away and how I scored a unique purse for just $20.

travel guide, traveling on a dime{my trust Target carry-on I've had for eight years}

I have a confession to make: I've never checked a bag while flying. Besides not wanting to deal with the hassle of retrieving my luggage and paying ridiculous fees, I have fears of an airline losing my beloved property. This means that I'm a bit of a pro when it comes to packing a carry on bag. Of course we all know to roll and tuck clothes tightly so you can fit more, but what to bring is just as important.All clothes, accessories and even beauty products should pull double or even triple duty so you can switch up your look without overloading your bag.
