Jewelry on the Go? Let’s Pack Like a Pro

With a little planning and the right habits, you can keep your favorite pieces protected, polished, and perfectly paired with your outfits — from takeoff to touchdown.

Before You Pack

• Make a Jewelry Plan
  Match pieces to outfits ahead of time so you don’t overpack. Choose versatile staples that work for both casual and dressy occasions.

• Photograph Your Jewelry Before Traveling
  In case anything goes missing, photos help with claims and recovery.

• Pre-clean Your Jewelry
  Polishing before your trip helps prevent tarnish and buildup, especially for silver and brass.

While Packing

• Use a Hard Case or Jewelry Roll
  A structured jewelry case protects from crushing. Soft rolls are great for space-saving and keeping things separate.

• Layer Cotton or Tissues Between Pieces
  Especially for statement earrings, pendants, or anything with stones — it cushions and prevents scratching.

• Use Silica Gel Packs
  Toss one into your case to absorb moisture and reduce tarnish during humid travel.

• Separate Fine Jewelry from Costume Jewelry
  Costume jewelry may contain materials that can scratch or tarnish finer pieces.

• Pack a Small Polishing Cloth
  Handy for refreshing dull pieces on the go — especially useful for silver, brass, or jewelry worn daily.

While Traveling

• Don’t Leave Jewelry in Hotel Bathrooms
  Moisture and forgetfulness are the enemies. Always store jewelry in your travel case and keep it in your luggage or safe.

• Rotate What You Wear Daily
  Wearing everything once helps reduce risk of loss and lets you enjoy your full collection.

• Watch Out for Sunscreen & Perfume
  Apply these before putting on your jewelry to avoid residue buildup or discoloration.

• Use a Mini Zipper Pouch for On-the-Go Days
  Great for taking off rings before meals, swimming, or visiting sandy spots — keeps them safe in your bag.
