Packing for a year is the hardest thing in the world.

What I find is that despite only packing essentials I still take too much. Like with shoes, you have to take different options- flats, heels, boots...It all adds up. I can't pack lightly at all.

Packing is so hard, if I could afford to pack nothing and buy everything when I got there, I would be in heaven.

For the most part, I try to pack several dresses that are made from material you can roll in a ball, stuff in a duffel and will look perfect when you pull them out.

It totally depends on the trip. If it's a short trip (five days or less) I pack smart and light. If it's longer than that, I take everything but the kitchen sink. However, repeated lost luggage has led me to learn to pack smarter so I can carry my luggage on the plane.

If I'm driving, all bets are off. Three suitcases and a tote, minimum.

Read our latest post on Plus Size Prom Dresses!

Prom Season is here and if you're beyond the prom age, prom season and post prom season is a good time to shop for any upcoming formal events. Shopping outside of the juniors prom sections and stores may help you find a dress that can live beyond prom or anyone too old to attend prom.


During my search I found that Nordstrom had the best selection of plus size evening dresses. They actually have one of the best evening dress selections no matter what your size. The dresses range from elegant to fun and sweet to sassy.

New York Fashion Week Favorites So Far

Thank you 3.1 Philip Lim! You've appeased my co-desires for wearability and an edge of funk. Love the ruffled sequin tops. Love the layered zips. Love the ruffled shoes. The shoes!!! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Anna Sui was fabulous Anna Sui with all the prints and colors and tribal influences. Of course, I'm biased in favor of anything that looks like a hippie-gypsy-pirate. Happy! Happy! Again, the shoes are amazing. Kudos to her also for sending out happy models, because smiling should never be out of fashion.Vera Wang, always one of my favorites, was just as sleek, romantic and modern as I would hope. I always like her neutral palette with occasional splashes of color. She used lots of sheer fabrics in this collection, but it's more ethereal than daring. The shiny details also keep things exciting.
