We’re just about packed, thank goodness. I’ve had an enjoyable time contemplating what to pack for a two week wintertime trip to the City of Lights. Paris is a city that can bring out the romantic in just about anyone. For me, that means packing enough clothes to look and feel special without going overboard. For example, nothing that we’re doing will require formal attire; so I’ve packed no neckwear, not even a suit.
I’d describe the overall mood of what I packed as ‘sophisticated-sexy,’ with leather shirts, body-conscious knit sweater tops as highlights with beautifully colored, patterned shirts, and even a gorgeously textured and versatile sport coat, for a few dressier occasions. So I plan to be chic yet comfortable, fashionable and sexy, enjoying Paris with my partner. What on Earth could be better?
As you can tell, the trip has all ready begun. Preparing and packing is actually when the trip begins. And, if you give yourself ample time for packing, it can be a totally enjoyable experience. You can envision when you’ll wear one particular outfit, and where you will be when you get the chance to wear another, and so on. Clothes are such an obvious part of our daily lives that making selections can seem mundane. But here I found myself wowed with my selections and looking forward to chilly, rainy Paris.
More soon, from Paris!!!
