Re: Packing, etc.
 

You're not anal. I plan on doing the same thing today. Well, maybe we are both ANAL. LOL. I don't care. I need to go shopping to pick up a couple of things, but I'm pretty much ready. I have an idea of the outfits I want to take. Shoes, are a problem. As usual, I will have a bag containing a lot of shoes. I ALWAYS overpack, so I doubt this will be different. I'm sooooo excited. This is my first national event.

NINE PAIRS OF SHOES:eek::o (Yes I'm yelling at you:))
How many suitecases? Nine pairs, when do you leave for

I'm TRYING to bring one suitecase and like my Soror said, I don't have a problem with wearing pants twice. I"M ON A BUDGET.

Re: Re: Re: Its almost here!!!
 

i'm with you soror. i too am on a budget, and even after going shopping i still don't have enough stuff to wear (as i have gained weight and can't fit a lot of stuff), so i will be doubling up as well.

Thank You PearlEssence08. My aunt is a 30 year member and she has asked and asked me if I have gone shopping yet. She ALWAYS gets new outfits for these events. I told her, Yes....what she does not know, I went shopping in my own closet. LOL

Re: Re: Re: Its almost here!!!
 

Let's see. I get to borrow one big (and I mean very large, almost as tall as me) suitcase. Then my garment bag. Then my cosmetic bag.
There will be plenty of room for these pictured and some others to go up to Vegas. That's the advantage of riding in a car. :D

I got your back Soror. I am currently at 9 pairs of shoes as well. I forgot about my purses and hats (it's my new thing). But like you, I'm riding in a car, so it's cool.

Had to edit...those shoes are cute!

LOL LOL LOL

Those shoes are tight. I saw Charle's Angles and those girl has some killer shoes, mules, boots etc.

I can picture you now coming into the hotel with that suitecase. LOL


Now your gonna have me looking at everyones shoes so I will know which one is you .

I heart those shoes
 

Thanks, Sorors, for the compliment.

The only thing that would make them more perfect is if they were a rose ;) pattern, but we can dream, heh, heh.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Its almost here!!!
 

I'm only planning to take four purses, including a great bright green one (w/pink lining) that came from the same group as the shoes. That's why I mapped out my clothes this week.

Sawrahs - Have a wonderful time at Leadership. Until about 3 weeks ago, I had expected to go, but some recent events changed those plans.

I talked to Soror Steeltrap the other day and I wish I could see her dropping her extra bags of shoes and purses on the bellman at the hotel. I hope y'all are bringing some comfy keds - 'cause all that walking on the strip is gonna kill your feet. I know my sorors will look cute out there strutting in your pink and green best. I'm just trying to protect y'all from coming home with hammer toes!!! :D

Sawrah, among the shoes will be some Nike's and Tod's driving comfort loafers. Having lived in Vegas for nearly five years, I know how walking is...:p :D

Re: That's it!
 

Whatever... :rolleyes:

LOL

I haven't packed yet. I ought to be ashamed! :(

Soror Skeelicious,

Don'g worry, I haven't packed yet either. I usually don't pack until the day OF, but since i have to be at the airport so early in the morning, I will be packing the day before. Although, I have been thinking of the outfits I'll wear.

When you've been in college and have to pack at LEAST twice a year, packing becomes quite easy.

PearlEssence

Well, I have started to catalogue everything I plan on taking. After running the rather long list by Soror PearlEssence, I need to do some cutting. AAAAAAAAAH, this is so hard!
