Use the capsule wardrobe idea. I just spent 2 weeks in Scotland with only a carry on. Just select about 4 outfits that are all in the same color family and will all mix and match. Include layering pieces if you expect temperature variations. Keeping it all coordinated narrows down the shoes, purses and jewelry you need. Good luck and have a great trip!
Aren’t Dot Cakes just bigger cupcakes with flat tops and nonpareils? It’s so funny how influenced people are by what they see on social media. We can make these at home that are homemade with real ingredients and flavors of our choice, but people will stand in line for hours and pay $11 for one!
Love your blog and all the tips, recipes and glimpses into your life!
My advice for not packing a lot is just tell yourself that you can buy whatever you need where you are going. Just don’t buy too much or it won’t fit in the suitcase to come back ðŸ«
