The next time you think you can't possibly pack another thing into your overstuffed carry-on, a glance at these tips will help take the wrinkles out of your packing problem:
• If you are traveling on business, take two suits and rotate between them. Try to take different color blouses. Mixing and matching will make people feel you've brought more clothes than you really did.
• Pack items that will easily take you from the workday world to the social scene.
• The ideal travel companion for women is an all-purpose, convertible bra that can be worn with all types of looks. One, the Barely There Invisible Look Strapless, can be worn six different ways for all wardrobe needs. The bra comes in the classic hues of white, black and soft taupe.
• As for the rest of the underwear, a good rule of thumb to follow is take enough for the length of your stay plus two days.
• Even if you are inside the country, it's a good idea to take your passport with you. You never know when your company may want you to fly to Paris or Rio.
• Many travel experts recommend a pair of flip-flops, also called thongs. They're not only great for the shower, but if your shoes get wet, you'll have something to wear while they dry.
Have a nice trip!
