master of travel

are you a last minute - 

no list - 

whatever smells clean & closest to the bag

goes in the bag

OR

are you a extremely organized? 

prepared for weeks in advance with lists for you and anyone else who is willing  read em ;)

does your preparedness make you an over packer?

for me, the logic is better be prepared and have MORE then be sorry!

one of the hardest things for me to do is limit my options when i pack...

its very often that my shortest trips always have me packing the most!

examples : 

 my little excursion to go "camping" for 2 days

( locally - like 5 minutes from the misters place )

i over packed because i like options 

and i had the option to store it all with my large trunk!

or maybe my worst was just a few weekends ago 

( for a concert and beach weekend)

3 days and i packed 4 bags -  no, 5  including my purse. 

no wait... 

6  ( small ) bag with extra pairs of shoes in case i changed my mind!

 i didn't know what i would want being out of my comfort zone...

so call me prissy, that is okayyy - i am a princess.

the mr. might have been having a nervous breakdown

 because he just couldn't understand my nightmare

so yes i am a list making, clothes rolling, outfit planning in a zip lock, toiletry hoarding packer!

now enough about me - lets talk about you!

swimwear ( 5 )

cover ups : kaftans : sarongs

10 things i will always do...

1) no matter where i am headed...

i will always spritz myself with some  perfume.

*a lady has always got to smell good ;)

2) when i go to particular restaurants 

i will always order the same meal -

i like the comfort of enjoying my meal 

and knowing that it will always taste the same

3) take pictures of the sky, flowers & ladybugs

4) match - even if i'm color blocking!

everything comes together in uniform 

it's just something i can't not do! undergarments, accessories, 

etc i like it to all be relative

5) speaking of matching - i will always have the same color

for my manicures and pedicures

6) lift my feet when going over train tracks

7) hold the door open for people, seriously my biggest pet peeve 

is not having any courtesy or manners!

8) watch every and any episode of friends that is on tv 

- no matter how many times i have seen it

9) believe in karma, with a

teensy bit of superstitious mixed in there ;)

10) if i like it, i'll buy it 

and in every color they make it in.
