Hi everyone,

Trip details

I am starting a month-long trip at the end of the week hitting five continents over a span of four weeks - mainly hitting corporate meetings & conferences. Because I will be taking 18 flights during that time, I am trying to avoid checking bags (30 min wait * 18, no thank you).

The coldest part of the trip will be 49F (9C) and the hottest part of the trip will be 80F (27C).

What I am packing (for a carry-on)
- 7 work dresses
- 3 casual dresses
- 1 black blazer for a more formal occasion
- 2 neutral color cardigans
- 2 t-shirts
- 1 jeans
- 2 flats - one black, one nude color
- 1 sandals
- 1 gym outfit (mainly hotel gyms)
- 1 sneakers
- 1 bathing suit (mainly hotel pools)
- 5 bras & underwear
- 4 socks
- 1 crossbody
- 1 clutch
- makeup bag that fits in 3-1-1
- 1 large kate spade tote that can be used to move stuffs in between cities, and used as a day-to-day purse.
- 1 surface pro

Plan of action
- laundry once a week
- stick with dresses when possible to minimize space
.......

Any advice on my list of items / how to pack for a long trip in a most effective way?
