Fashion week is an exciting time, but also a little chaotic. You are running around from one meeting-to-another, you have shows to attend, events, parties ... the whole nine yards. To successfully survive the fashion week you need a to plan and pack with a purpose. Below are my tips and some of the must haves to carry to make it through the week:
1. Pre-planned o utfits in packing cubes - Right from the jewelry, watch, to clothes pack it all in individual packing cube. Plan a few extra options, for 'just in case' scenarios. This one step will shave off at least 15 minutes from your morning.
2. Multi Purpose Oil - Instead of carrying a body lotion, face moisturizer, hair serum, carry a multi purpose oil which will not only save your time, but also space. Plus, you would have to go from one bottle to another.
3. Foldable Ballet Flats - Fashion week involves a lot of walking. Walking to hail a cab, walking to events, walking to the subway, walking to grab lunch - and while a pair of heels will definitely work magic for your legs but by the end of the day you would want something comfortable. Carry a pair of foldable ballet flats in your bag for the 'end-of-the-day'.
4. External Phone Battery - Without your phone, you would have no proof that you were at the Fashion week. Hello? Social Media? You need your phone juice to last you till you hit the bed. Carry an external battery. Charge it the night before and keep it for back up. Thank me later!
5. Flushable Cleansing Cloths - Now most important thing - hygiene! At some point during the shows, and parties and networking, you will have to go. Now I am a stickler for cleanliness and I know so are most of my girlfriends. None of us can stand is feeling uncomfortable. Hence, I always carry flushable cleansing cloths to stay fresh, clean and confident! In fact, Cottonelle® with CleanRipple® Texture keeps you clean so you can feel confident enough to strut your stuff, whether down the runway, the red carpet or the city streets. is designed to clean better, so you're clean & confident enough to go commando. Imagine that!
