   I love your site! Smart, practical, and GREAT ideas and tips!! My husband and I are about to take a month long honeymoon to Malaysia and Indonesia. The challenge I was having while packing was to make sure I had some modest outfits but packing a scarf will do the trick! Also, for great walking yet still stylish and comfortable, try Keen's Toyah Mary Janes. You can wear them with skirts, shorts, pants, etc. This site proves that you can be practical while being stylish!! You rock!!

   I cannot thank you enough, I just recently went on a 10 day vacation and used your Maximista list and ended up not using 2 items. This blog is just what I needed to pack less and enjoy a stylish wardrobe on vacay. Would you please do a cold weather packing list. We are planning a trip to Russia soon. I have no idea where to start.

   I love your site Alex. My partner describes my personal style as "Chairman Mao" because I wear the same things all the time. But I've been finding your blog inspiring to maybe think about putting some effort in! The spreads of the pieces and outfits are amazing. I love them. They remind me of paper dolls.

     Thank you so much, glad you like it! Maybe you just need to accessorize and mix and match more. A colorful scarf really adds so much life to an outfit. I love my new orange one. Sometimes I get bored with my clothes too and then get re-inspired with the mix and match sets :-)

   This is great! I actually have a lot of similar items in my list. Swapped the long skirt for cargo pants ... I like the extra pockets to put things like lens caps and such when shooting video. What's that great saying when packing ... take half the clothes and twice the money? ;)

     Hi Rachelle Glad you liked it! Super last minute but tried my best. Oh yes, the "cargo pants" pictured don't have any pockets...oops! Yes that's such a true saying you always need less clothing but you can never have enough money I hope you have an incredible time! I can't wait to follow along :-)
