Top 5 Style Savvy Travel Packing Tips

I received a 'Boarding Pass' to a TS and Virtu event. Destination: Preview our New Autumn Collection. Woot! I was one happy fashion blogger. If you ever receive an invite to attend a store event, GO! There's typically drinks, nibbles, and often cool prizes to win. They're also fun.

The theme of the event was Creating a Travel Friendly Wardrobe. I felt like I could've gotten up and spoken about this. This is why I love TS. Very little ironing required. There is a lot of mix and match versatility. My work wardrobe and social outfits often overlapped.

Due to a lipstick crisis I missed out on the 'guess how many items of clothes are in the carry on suitcase' game. I arrived fashionably late (and therefore didn't stand in the ideal spot to get photos. Sorry these will have to do). The lady that did guess the magic number of items won a voucher. Oh snap! Super sorry I didn't arrive ten minutes earlier.

The fashion show took us on a journey. Showing what you could wear on the plane, to a meeting, and for social drinks. Then what you'd wear to play tourist. That's a huge reason why I love TS and Virtu. The clothes are versatile. I pinky swear, I say that from own experience.

Top 5 travel packing tips I picked up:

1. A few well-chosen accessories can make the same clothes look like a new outfit.
2. Well heeled. Think comfort, versatility, neutral. Limit to 3 pairs of shoes.
3. Think versatile. Take items you can wear several ways and from casual to dressy.
4. Create outfits. Try it all on. Discover what works and doesn't before you leave home.
5. Snap lock bags. Take several sizes for toiletries, documents, snacks, etc.

There was a second give away. I was the luck lady holding D13 ticket and won a $50 voucher. There might have been jumping and squealing. I indulged in new accessories and have three shiny new necklaces. Thank you TS14+ and Virtu. Especially to the wonderful ladies at Pakington street store. And kudos to the models of the day. You did awesome.
