My first business trip was also the first day of my new job. I was terrified and excited, all at once. Any time I’m going into a new situation I research the heck out of it so I’m not as freaked. Well, there was no research to be had for new business travelers back then,…
What are the best nude shoes for business travel? And what does “nude” mean anyway? Reader E asks… I need shoes for business travel (I’m traveling a lot now!) and I see you recommend nude shoes all of the time. It always makes me think of old-fashioned nurses’ shoes! Can you send me some other…
One of the questions I get all the time is how to compress a full makeup routine into a bag small enough for travel. Honestly, some people don’t. They bring their full makeup bag on every trip, and save room in the suitcase other ways. That is certainly one way to do it, but it’s…
Last September I wrote a post about hair tools. Don’t get me wrong–I love all of those, and I use them religiously in the warmer months. However, in the winter my hair gets flat, dull, and dry; I need more volume and shine, with (ideally) less heat. Enter these fantastic travel-friendly hair tools and products,…
In the Road Warriorette household, we are obsessed with weather. Every morning while the Mini Warrior is eating breakfast and getting ready for school we watch The Weather Channel. My six-year old can recite facts about storm clouds, hurricanes, and daytime heating like other kids talk about dinosaurs. These days TWC is talking about all…

Y’all, this bag is designed for serious travelers and it’s just gorgeous. The interior has a padded pocket for a laptop or tablet, plus another zipper pocket. There is a…
Last spring my sister introduced me to Korean skin care. It basically involves ten (or more) steps including cleaning, toning, different serums for morning and night, targeting problem areas, and moisturizing. As a super busy woman who doesn’t always remember to wash her face before passing out in bed, the idea of ten steps was…
I’m trying a new thing this year. Instead of a list of resolutions or goals, I’m planning for 2019. How is that different? Well, I still have a list of things I’d like to accomplish–but instead of that being the end of it, I’m figuring out when in the year I’ll do them and how…
Any time I am gone for more than 3-4 days I agonize over my packing list. I want to have everything I need but definitely don’t want to pack too much. That is certainly true for my recent trip to India! I left on a Saturday and got home on Friday, so I was gone…
For a lot of women, fixing their hair is the most time-consuming grooming task of their day. Between washing, blow drying, and styling, it’s easy to spend a good 30 minutes each morning just on hair. My curly hair dries out if washed every day, so at least that saves me a little time. Even…
