During PFW I attended shows, presentations and events, but my highlight was being dressed for the Victoria & Tomas show!
While in Paris I feel like I broke more laws then I can count just trying to create epic content. I'll get into that more next week and share how I got onto Parisian rooftops right next to the Eiffel Tower! Missed my Eiffel Tower video? Click Here
Some how I have gone from a person that barely travels to traveling to Europe twice and Asia within the past 3 months! All three trips have been content trips, so packing light was never an option. Below is my travel secret to packing 30+ outfits and keeping it under those crazy airline weight restrictions!
Must have Travel Items:
I would have been lost this entire trip without a carry on suitcases and packing cubes. Every single day I had a 6am wake up call for photoshoots, yes it had to be that early to beat the tourist to these highly visited locations. To be as efficient as possible I would pack up my suitcase the night before with everything I needed for the following days shoot. Another travel must have is packing cubes! I brought with me 30 COMPLETE outfits. Yes, 30 and I only skipped out on 3 looks. The only reason why they all fit was because of my packing cubes. They made packing a breeze and kept everything organized.
