If you must take a bulky sweater, consider wearing it on the plane. Wearing the biggest and bulkiest shoes saves room and weight in your bag. Chances are, they're also the most comfortable. If they do, don't pack them. Use travel-sized toiletries and bring only essential makeup.
Smaller toiletries take up less space and weigh less.
