Packing for BlogHer ’11 in San Diego
Yes I overpack for everything… but we’re driving so I can fill the car to the brim, right? Well that’s my logic anyway. The difficulty with dressing emotionally is that I never know how I’m going to “feel” in any given moment so I have to be prepared in an event that I feel, I …
