Dom Reilly Bag

Step 1: Draw up a holiday diary. Assign a minimum of two outfits per day.

Most of us require beach, day tripping and evening outfits.

Step 2: Lay out on your bed your clothes, shoes, accessories, grooming and toiletries products and miscellaneous items (travel adaptors, books, iPod speakers etc.) that you wish to take. If they don't all fit on your bed then they won't fit in your hand luggage.

Step 3: Lay flat the heaviest items at the bottom (i.e. a beach towel)

Step 4: Roll all other clothing and pack.

Step 5: Place shoes in a plastic bag first and slip into the sides. Socks can be rolled into shoes. This also helps keep the shape.

Step 6: Secure toiletries in clear see through plastic and secure lids with sellotape.

Step 7: Pack all other miscellaneous items in and around.
