For women only
I was recently asked by a friend of mine if I had some tips on how to pack bags for a short business trip. Well, I think I am the totally wrong person to ask. My bag is most of the time too big or too jam-packed. There are those great packing tips in women’s magazines, but first of all I don’t buy them and second I don’t follow the rules anyway. And the fairytales that things don’t wrinkle in your suitcase… haha.
It is always hard to decide what to take with you. If you are going to a place where the weather is stable, this definitely makes life easier. But look at Germany and the so-called summer. The weather changed between 35 and 13 degrees within one week. So you better have something light but also a jacket that keeps you warm. Then it might be raining and yes it always happens when there is no place to get an umbrella. So you better take it with you and not look like a drowned rat. You have got your suits, your blouses, and your shoes. Here comes the difficult choice – which of my “I-have-no-idea-how-many-I-own” shoes in the closet do I take? If it’s warm you need this pair, if it’s cold that pair, and if you go out for dinner you need the other pair.
Life is hard 
. And don’t forget the appropriate jewelry. Next step beauty case and everything that the beauty industry tells us to use every day and night. Remember, you not only have to know what you are doing but also look good. Is the suitcase you chose big enough? No? Well, get a bigger one. Be prepared for all possibilities. Better safe than sorry. I warned you I
wasn’t big on help.
