05.18.12 Packing Tips

Fri, 18 May 2012 11:33:00 -0700

Hi all! Since we are all about summer travel at organize.com right now, my team asked me to put together some tips for packing. There are no two ways about it, packing is stressful, but try on a few of these ideas to reduce some of that stress.

What’s in the suitcase?

Start with lists. Decide what you will take and if there is anything you still need to buy.
List your outfits (down to your toes), including belts, handbags, jewelry and shoes, of course. You’ll avoid over-packing.
Try to choose mix and match pieces, as well as things that you can layer for any change in temperatures.
Pack heavier items on the bottom of your suitcase and lighter things on the top. I tuck shoes around the edges and use to fill in any gaps.
Use zip-locks or lined cosmetic bags for toiletries. Remember that most hotels have shampoo, conditioners and lotions, so you can leave yours behind. I adore these cute damask zip bags for travel and use them all the time.
Leave room to pack items those items you might want to buy or add a folding nylon bag to carry those goodies back.

Keep in mind that there is shopping in most parts of the world and you probably aren’t going to go without anything you really need. Remember, by the time you get on the plane or in the car, you aren’t going to give any more thought to what’s in your suitcase.

Oh and fyi…we also have oodles of travel essentials in case you want to take a gander.

Happy weekend!

Fri, 11 May 2012 18:50:00 -0700

What’s your favorite Momism? Mother’s from around the world have passed down their words of wisdom (or not!) for generations. Isn’t it funny that they were right about almost everything?

Here are some of my favorite classics:

“If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it at all.”
“There are starving kids in (pick a country).”
“Because I said so.”
“Just wait until your father gets home.”
“If I talked to my mother the way you talked to me.”
“Because I’m your mother, that’s why.”
“Your face is going to freeze like that.”
“Yes, I do have eyes in the back of my head.”
“You are grounded forever.”
“This hurts me more than it hurts you.”
“You’re going out dressed like that?”
“Don’t walk on the carpet, you’ll mess up the vacuum lines!”
“Be careful what you wish for.”
“Your running away? Let me help you pack.”

And my very favorite?
“Make sure you wear clean underwear in case you get in an accident.”

To all the fab Mom’s around the world…Happy Mother’s Day!
