jet, set, pack

Are you a stylish traveler? If ever there was a time to arrive in style, your honeymoon would be it. My goal is to pack 10 staple pieces in neutral colors-a light jacket, a little black dress, fabulous black pants, a cashmere sweater, a tweed pencil skirt, dark wash denim jeans, a wrap dress, a printed blouse, evening heels and walking flats--and save the rest of my suitcase for items picked up along the way. Including the Prada.
Above: Alpaca coat, $725, by Diane von Furstenberg; cotton-sateen dress, $1,590, Alberta Ferretti; python bag, $2,390, Devi Kroell; gold earrings, $140, Roberto Coin; steel quartz watch with calf-leather strap, $975, Montblanc. Custom Pink Valise via handmade parade, originally uploaded by littlepinkstudio.

oooh sounds fab but I think you need more tops! Do let us know what individual pieces you are selecting.

Why would anyone in their right mind pay such outlandish prices for clothing & accessories? This is what is wrong with the United States. Greed is the cause of the near collapse of our economy as we know it.
