Since I knew there would be some laundry facilities available I planned on doing laundry back at the campground once or twice, and I actually packed more than I needed anyway. 4-5 shirts was plenty along with two skirts, a pair of jeans, and a pair of capris. I also kept shoes to a minimum. Tevas meant no need to bring socks. Other than that I just took a pair of beach flip-flops and a pair of nice flip-flops. <BR/><BR/>This was the first time I bothered camping in skirts, and I loved, loved it. I even went bike riding around the campground in my skirts. It was so much fun. <BR/><BR/>Hope you enjoy your trip!Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10508555292235741118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-68579932665973482972008-05-15T10:22:00.000-07:002008-05-15T10:22:00.000-07:00Your skirt looks very lovely.

I lived for a few years in Oklahoma and can fondly remember the springtime warmth of the south! You'll find this true of married life: the years do fly so quickly, but they get sweeter as time goes by! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-68261429991204263182008-05-14T11:18:00.000-07:002008-05-14T11:18:00.000-07:00It looks lovely!~EmilyIt looks lovely!<BR/><BR/>~Emilyemmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08445617434980648477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-87749904810319789312008-05-14T07:56:00.001-07:002008-05-14T07:56:00.001-07:00Your skirt is beautiful!

A nice dress for when you need one, a few casual skirts that can be dressed up with small accessories and some shirts that will go with any of the skirts, plus a sweater/shawl or two is all I usually take whenever I have gone someplace. I hope you have a lovely time on your trip!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06713535191616985475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-44917964831926699282008-05-14T07:56:00.000-07:002008-05-14T07:56:00.000-07:00Well, less is more.

When I went to Europe for 6 weeks, I packed all carry on. It makes the trip sooo much easier. Oh, and rolling your clothes, instead of folding will save you space and wrinkles :-)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16860487428631923601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-71666488460466313472008-05-14T07:54:00.000-07:002008-05-14T07:54:00.000-07:00Awww, you look so cute.

I do think mix and match would be the best way to go, and don't forget about maybe choosing fabrics that don't wrinkle too very much. Or just bring a fabric steamer I guess. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-75265517953354319702008-05-13T14:20:00.000-07:002008-05-13T14:20:00.000-07:00Lauren!

Think about whether you're going to be able to do laundry on your trip as well. If you can, you don't have to take as much stuff, because you won't be seeing the same people for the whole ten days anyway. Can't wait to see you! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1635258406635131731.post-4282566161294843252008-05-13T14:02:00.000-07:002008-05-13T14:02:00.000-07:00Congratulations on reaching the end!

For example I like to take a black skirt, denim one or two, and then maybe a print for the skirts and then shirts that will match back to all of them. If you stay with one color family you do not have to worry about shoes matching either. If everything matches black you will only need shoes that are black. I hope that makes sense and helps.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802256752471694650noreply@blogger.com
