This was the view from our vacation home in Palm Springs the other day. We are so lucky to be here for 4 weeks and this rainbow is a fitting symbol! Before we left the frozen tundra, I packed a huge suitcase to the allotted airline weight of exactly 50 lbs. Although it sounds like I'm hauling at boatload of stuff, it really amounts to about a week of clothes. Every time we are here, I end up recycling outfits over and over (and over) again. Near the end of our stay I want to toss everything out and start over again.
This trip I decided to bring the art of packing to a new height. Instead of throwing in a mass of items hoping it will all work, I started with basics and accessorized the heck out of them. And, I have been quite pleased with the result. The key is not to recycle but to refresh! Here's what I mean:
I found A fabulous A.L.C black silk dress (similar one here). This LBD can go from pretty to biker to cocktail hour with just a few changes in accessories.
PRETTY
BIKER
COCKTAIL HOUR
Go forth and accessorize!
