For some of you, packing to go away can be so stressful and daunting that it can put a damper on your vacation. We all know that the clothes we wear can drastically change our mood, for better or for worse. Arriving on a much needed vacay with a less than inspiring suitcase filled with questionable clothes can unfortunately change our mood from feeling sassy to feeling sour. If this sounds like you, keep reading.

I’ve traveled a lot and I finally feel that I have honed my packing skills so much that I actually look forward to packing because I know I’m going to be able to get dressed effortlessly, and feel and look amazing. This means less time in the hotel getting ready and a lot more time having fun in my clothes.   

What I am showing are mostly basics because this vlog episode is really focusing on color and how to mix it with your core neutrals so that you have many outfit combinations to play with while you’re on your vacay.

Now, it’s your turn. I’d love to hear from you.  Your insights and inspiration are appreciated so please share your stories in the comments below. If you have a question also post it in the comment section below.  I check it daily. Since the topic is always about fashion or style no question that you ask will be “off Topic.” That means as far as I’m concerned, when you ask a question that is the topic. Everyone else who’s reading it can follow up on my answer. There will be no questions that you ask that will be too far off topic because your question will be the current topic. So…ask away! Oh…and your email address is not “required” even though it says so.  Don’t even ask. Love, ~Michelle
