Stacey Solomon is one of our favourite sources for family-friendly advice, and she’s just shared another brilliant hack on Instagram. The Loose Women panellist revealed how she manages to pack two weeks’ worth of clothes into a single suitcase – and the best part is, there’s no need to unpack at your destination.

In her Instagram story, Stacey demonstrated how she uses hanging shoe storage, similar to this £12.99 Over the Door Shoe Storage available on Amazon, to keep her children’s clothes neatly organised. She highlighted how these storage solutions are ideal for fitting a fortnight’s worth of outfits, shoes, and accessories into one compact space.

The concept is straightforward – Stacey lays the shoe storage hanger flat and uses each pocket to store an outfit for the day. The hanging storage she uses, much like the one available on Amazon, features 35 individual pockets, which conveniently equates to two weeks’ worth of clothing.

With seven rows at her disposal, Stacey assigns each row a day of the week. Four of the five columns are divided into two morning and two evening outfits, resulting in two outfits per day for 14 days.

This arrangement also leaves an extra pocket at the end of each row for storing shoes or accessories such as hats, sunglasses, or hair accessories. After you’ve filled up each pocket, all you need to do is roll the storage hanger into a tidy bundle and slot it into your suitcase, where it occupies considerably less space than typical packing methods.

The best bit? No unpacking required at your destination. You just unroll it and drape it over a door or on a coat hook – job done!

The £12.99 Over the Door Shoe Storage comes with its own set of four hooks, meaning you can take them along to hang it up once you’re there. When it’s not been utilised as a clever travel solution, the organiser can either be rolled up to near flat for storing in a cupboard or beneath your bed, or it can be used for holding other items at home, like beauty essentials, hair styling equipment, or – as intended – shoes.

Customers who have previously bought the shoe storage are singing its praises for its practicality and sturdiness. One shopper said: “Great quality and loads of pockets for your shoes, I have a lot of shoes and boots and they were in a mess, now my shoes and sandals are all accessible and my boots are all on the shoe rack and out of the way. I’ve not got much storage in my home so this is perfect fits over the door AND the door still shuts which can be a problem with some over door hangers, so I’m very pleased with this item.”

While this trick works wonders for children’s attire, it might be a bit more challenging for larger and bulkier adult clothing. However, Stacey’s sister Jemma is also a fan of packing hacks and recently shared her essential travel items with us.

Among her must-haves are a fantastic set of packing cubes to help organise and compress her clothes, thus saving space. We’re particularly fond of Antler’s Chelsea Packing Cubes, which come in various sizes suitable for everything from underwear to knitwear, reports OK!.
