Oui, again. And I cannot wait! Not only to have another trip over there, but guess who will be there at the same time? Yes, my partner-in-crime and co-blogger, Lisa! Incroyable! We have one entire day set aside to shop together, sans mari ou les enfants. That might seem like a lot of time, but for Lisa and I, it's as quick as a heartbeat. We are planning and strategizing. We will definitely keep you up to date on our adventures.
But, back to packing. I actually pulled up last year's posts on daywear and evening wear to re-check what I had packed then. Turns out that it's going to be a lot of the same ideas.
For daywear: It's tricky. I like to look polished; after all, you never know where wandering might lead you. The weather will change from 40s and raining to 60s and sunny. Definitely sticking with my trench (I have a new one from J.Crew. Check it out.) for outerwear. I will also pack an assortment of Eric Bompard sweaters along side Vince cotton tops to go on top of a variety of AG jeans and Michael Kors pants.
For evening wear: I think I'm going to stick to the formula of pants + silk top + heels + clutch + jewelry = dinner outfit. It's easy to pack and wear. Of course, I don't see myself bringing less than 3 pairs of shoes to interchange between dinner outfits, but one can always dream, right? And, even though I usually bring a dress, it's more often than not left in my suitcase the entire time.
I put together a Polyvore set with actual outfits I will be taking. I think I'll be good to go. Stay tuned for our findings in the City of Lights! ~ JH
