Normally by this time of year I’m thinking and writing about spring colors and outfits, enjoying the warmth of the Texas sun. Not this year. Yet another winter storm is moving across the US, and it is coooold. So instead of getting out my peep-toe flats I’m keeping on my big winter coat and boots…
You guys know I sing the praises of TSA Pre-check all the time. It can be such a great timesaver when it works. Alas, it doesn’t always work. For someone like me, who has had Pre-check for almost five years, it’s probably good to have to go through a somewhat normal security experience every once…
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…
Is it possible to bring suits on a business trip without getting them wrinkled? Reader B asks…. Help RW! I have to wear suits every day on my work trips but can’t figure out how to pack them without wrinkling. Do you have any suggestions? A few wrinkles may be inevitable, but there are definitely…
You may think that if you want to read books on your Kindle, Nook, or iPad you have to pay the same price you would pay for a physical book. It’s not true! There are plenty of discounted ebooks, but today I want to talk about how easy it is to borrow ebooks for free…
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,…
Is it even possible to avoid illness if you travel a lot for work? Reader K asks… Help! Everyone around me is coughing and sneezing, and I have to leave for a three week trial next week. It’s hard enough to avoid getting the cold or flu when I’m at home. How can I avoid…
Is it possible to sleep well on a work trip? Reader M asks…. I can’t be the only one with sleep problems on the road, can I? My go-to is usually a Benadryl or unisom (same ingredients) but I know other people take melatonin or use those patches. Would love a post about sleep issues…
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…
