sorry not a disciple here
i like to wear what makes me feel good and comfortable but also good in photos
couldnt stand wearing colours i hate and i dont buy those sort of clothes in the first place
not a designer girl here but colour is what makes a simple tshirt great
i rarely wear patterns either unless in a floral skirt if theyre around that season
i love strong bright colours as well as earth tones
i am determined to pack light this time as we are going to russia and scandinavia and will be hauling luggage ourselves but i cant see myself with just a carryon either
thank goodness for musclebound OH!

I do the same, bring lots of things that I'm not planning on keeping, then leave them behind, it makes more room for purchases. I also have clothing that travels well such as light weight merino wool tops and microfiber or nylon bottoms, and a good waterproof breathable parka.
Most of my vacations are spent in the outdoors, and most of my pictures are of the scenery. I already know what I look like. I don't care what anyone else thinks, as long as I can get into the restaurants that I want to.

Lanejohann - I don't do carry on only due to my camera equipment. However, I do pack light (except for the camera gear) - I usually take a 24" bag and have room to spare for souvenirs that can go checked (I'll check purchases such as linens, clothing, books, etc.).
For me, that's a good compromise. It's not so much that I can't handle it by myself, but I don't have to do without things I REALLY want to bring with me.
