Get travel friendly gear: Instead of packing your closet, choose fabrics that will be the easiest to handle. You may not always get access to an iron, so pack fabrics that don't require ironing and can be mixed and matched to use for a variety of occasions.
Cut down on shoes: You may have splurged on dozens of amazing shoes over the years and may want to pack them all for the trip. But don't; exercise self-control. Pack only the minimum 1-2 pairs of shoes that can take care of all occasions.
Stick to one bag: Instead of packing several bags, stick to one single bag and take only as much as you can fit in that one bag. It's not feasible to carry around the deadweight of excessive baggage throughout the trip.
