A few weeks ago, I got an email from a reader. I leave next Wednesday for my longest trip ever to Wisconsin for work. Its 10 days in Wisconsin! Thankfully I will be running from the hotel to the car and then the car to the warehouse. However, I can only bring one suitcase. Do…
Packing for work trips creates a unique challenge for women. I wrote about my winter packing list last week, which focused primarily on clothes. Accessories help you create more outfits with fewer clothing items. There are a few criteria that I keep in mind when choosing what jewelry to pack. Don’t bring everything you own.…
You guys know I love packing lists, and have them for all types of situations. But what goes in my purse, and is therefore accessible during a flight, doesn’t really change. Maybe I’ll bring an extra book for a super long trip, but for the most part I put the same stuff in there. I…
It’s not winter yet. In fact, I wrote a post about what to pack for a summer business trip barely a month ago. But some events last week reminded me that winter will soon be upon much of the country, and I need to be prepared. See, last year I was traveling home from Raleigh…
A few months ago, I got an email from Reader E. I wanted to give you one of my favorite travel tips for makeup and since school supply season is upon us (yikes!) I thought this would be a perfect time to share my tip. I am what my husband calls a “competitive” packer and…
In a quick informal survey of family and friends, people were clearly the most stressed by packing one item. Not clothes, as you might think, or shoes. It was toiletries! My friends and family find the idea of compressing their skin care/hair care/shower regimen into a couple of tiny bags more daunting than any other…

Hard to believe it, but Road Warriorette has been on the interwebz for four years now! June 2012 I learned how to travel (a lot!) while in my second trimester. Gave my recommendations for how to build a summer business travel wardrobe. Travel office supplies became a hot topic. Cynthia Good of Little PINK Book…
In my goal to make someone’s first business trip easier, I am creating packing lists, with specific items and photos, of my typical items for a four-day trip. A couple of weeks ago I talked about clothes, and next in my series of packing photos: toiletries! Toiletries create a very tricky packing situation for the…
This contest is closed. After 18 months of research, Hyatt has recently come out with a new array of offerings geared toward the frequent traveler. The new features are tailored to guests’ individual preferences, and include a service providing frequently forgotten items, healthy new menu options, and upgraded bath amenities. I have experienced all of…
