Are you going away to attend a function where you’ll be wearing ‘Indian’ clothes?

What has inspired me to create this post?

My friend is going away for 2 weeks to attend a family wedding. She was a bit worried that she’d leave something important out, when she was packing.

I often attended wedding outside of London. When this was the case I stayed there and went to the wedding the next day. Thus it was essential that I didn’t forget anything.

This made me create a list. I made it once, kept it on the pc so I could add to it or share it with others (I didn’t have a blog back then, you see, so forwarding by email was the key?! :)) and keep a print out of it in the suitcase that I took for weekend travel. As easy as that.

Now that I have a blog I thought I’d share it with you in the hope that it will help someone else feel less traumatised, disorganised or rushed when packing.

If I’ve left anything out please click on reply and let me know.
