Going by car with 2-3 other women who don't necessarily pack light, I try to keep my clothes monochromatic so I only need one pair of dress shoes and/or boots and a pair of workout shoes. (I'm the one with the smallest suitcase.)<br /><br />What also helps is by being a SAHM, most of my clothes are T's, jeans, shorts and sweats, so I don't have a superabundance of dress up clothes. It's definitely easier to make decisions on what to wear that way. :)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629937361001985675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-67034648497077477662011-05-06T20:43:58.898-07:002011-05-06T20:43:58.898-07:00Lenora, I have to ask.

I had s nice group. Oh spotted two Louis Vuitton purses and one Coach. Some smoking shoes too. And learned about writing. Big Daddy went shopping. Guess what he bought?

When I got back with a second small bag it was 23 kilo's.Ausjennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644698706787568679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-35112910408828037922011-05-06T16:15:01.023-07:002011-05-06T16:15:01.023-07:00Missy,

"...Okay, I can't beyond when you said this:<br />"I might actually learn how to write a book."<br /><br />Ha! I do believe you've learned a little about writing already, Elnora. Just a wee bit. :)<br /><br />Now, on to packing. I always take way too many shoes to conferences. Of course, the new luggage restriction and cost have hampered my packing! I have to do a better job now. I'm in Pamela's league now--that of the bursting luggage zipper!Missy Tippenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480008023330542958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-14984567781097248832011-05-06T14:00:53.935-07:002011-05-06T14:00:53.935-07:00I try to pack as little as possible.

LOL keeps life interesting. <br />Boy I'm jealous, I didn't go to any conferences last year and I miss it soooo much. Can't wait to get to New York City and be among writers!

I dont have that many fancy clothes but on a normal trip its two pairs of shoes the pair I wear and a second. (like in winter incase one gets wet) in summer its a pair of sandals and one of pair of runners. For a conference I may struggle. <br />I hope with all the sleepy people some are actually awake for you. Have a great time.Ausjennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644698706787568679noreply@blogger.com
