Maggie’s Packing List

By Maggie Rizer | May 23, 2023

Travel Outfit

Traveling is a tough one. You want to be comfortable for your trip, warm in the over AC’d airplanes but, you also want to look and feel glam for your trip and when you land! This Temperley knit cardigan and pant is a perfect way to pull all of this off! I personally will wear it with a good sneaker and probably a black tank bodysuit underneath. That way, on arrival I can slip my pink Manolo mule heels on, take off the cardigan and I’m set for dinner. A win for the family not having to wait for me and a win for me not feeling “dressed”. I’m loving it. I’ll wear it on both travel days and also will have a cozy something to put on during the week if I need it.

Jacket

This one is perfect for day to night transitions if you’re like me and don’t want to pack a big bag! Less is more and I love that this jacket will work throughout the trip. Casual enough for the daytime but still extremely stylish and fab for nights out.

Night Out

So this one has been tougher for me and I need help! My husbands 20th college reunion but, with our four kids. So, clearly as a woman, I want to look killer. BUT, is it more important to be warm and be able to chase my kids, or look killer? Can I make it all happen at the same time? I have certainly been feeling like that’s not going to happen. I’ve been racking my brain on this one and have come to the sad conclusion that I do not think I can wear my planned 4″ stilletos and mini dress. Sad but, realistic. I do believe however that I can still look major but, make it through the night alive. I’m obsessed with and am packing all of these for nights while I’m there but need advice on the reunion, please help!

Think east coast, spring, nighttime, outside weather (chilly), meeting sophisticated professors, chasing kids on a campus for hours, seeing ex girlfriends and trying to convince your kids to go to this school bc it’s amazing – all mixed together.
