It's the night before the flight for your big trip to the beach. Your alarm is set, your tickets are booked and you're ready to go.

Crap! You forgot to pack your suitcase!

Mom has been on you all week, reminding you to pack everything you will need for two weeks away from home. Now, what all did she say to remember? Bathing suit? Sunscreen? Underwear? Think! Didn't she say you were taking family photos on the beach? Did she say white shirt or baby blue? Or maybe she said red. It's already past midnight and you have to be up in five hours to head to the airport.

What do you do?

First open up the biggest suitcase you have. There will be no time for folding clothing and trying to save space. Grab every pair of flip flops you own. It's the beach after all, you need choices. Well, maybe throw in your running shoes just in case you decide to workout. Oh who are we kidding, you're not going to work out. Make sure to throw a pair of heels in as well; you never know when those will come in handy.

Now on to swimwear. You want options. But you don't want to pack anything that will give you weird tan lines so don't even bother packing any halter tops. You might want to mix and match so make sure to bring lots of styles of bottoms to mix with your tops. Throw in a one piece, maybe a tank-kini and you're ready to soak up the rays! Oh, don't forget that cute hipster-chic cover-up you bought at H&M!

You will probably need some non-beachwear outfits as well. Just throw anything and everything, that isn't long-sleeve or velvet, into your suitcase. Even that old cut-up t-shirt. Maybe you'll wear to bed or something. The more options the better.

At this point, it's getting pretty late and you're tired, but you still haven't packed your toilet trees or carry on bag.

Run to your bathroom. Throw all of your shampoo and conditioner into a giant plastic bag. Throw in extra hair ties, a toothbrush and heck, even some mouthwash, then throw it all in your bag. Some suitcases even have a special compartment in the top lid for such things. Use that if you'd like. Or don't. Everybody has their own packing style.

Zip that baby up! You may have to jump on it a few times to make it close all the way, but it will be worth it)

Finally, your carry-on bag. Snacks! Snacks are imperative to any good flight. Without them, we get grumpy and bored. Don't forget to throw your phone charger in there as well, you'll probably end up charging your phone as you wait to board the plane. And don't forget your travel buddy, Mr.Snuggles, he's the best stuffed bunny rabbit there is!

Now you are finally ready to hit the beach and have a fun vacation

Good job! You did it!

Just cross your fingers and hope you didn't forget anything this time...
