I learned the hard way to also pack or have ready a possible funeral outfit. There is nothing as stressful as trying to find a funeral outfit unexpectedly at a small town Walmart while also swamped with relatives and funeral arrangements...and grieving. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-was-easy#post-1448803 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 19:46:15 +0000 approprio 1448803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope your stepdad is doing ok. And congratulations on packing so quickly, it's quite an achievement. I like to think I have a packing mojo, but I've never managed it that quickly! Best wishes to your family. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-was-easy#post-1448646 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 14:21:47 +0000 gradfashionista 1448646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear--I hope he makes a quick and full recovery. </p> <p>Happy packing tales deserve to be in the main forum. What a great feeling to know that it's become an easy task. Even with an all-black wardrobe, it still takes me awhile because all of my clothes have to fit in one half of a carry-on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-was-easy#post-1448644 Fri, 27 Feb 2015 14:16:52 +0000 jackiec 1448644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope things are okay.

I have to rush off to be with my mother. I realized how easy it was to pack in a flash now that my closet is so organized. All items are grouped by color and type, and I can now see everything because I have honed things down to only what I love and what works. I quickly picked two main colors and an accent. Grabbed enough to build three outfits, added a puffer vest for extra warmth (still in the snow belt), put some PJ's and undergarments in my bag, plus toiletries, a pair of extra shoes, my iPad, and I'm out the door to the airport. </p> <p>Usually I stew for at least a week over what to bring, or at least I end up with a crazy mix of items. I know everything coordinates. It took less than 15 minutes! Amazing!</p> <p>Oops, I meant for this to go in the off topic section. I'm not sure how to move it? </p>
