The Frugal Traveler: Dealing with a work wardrobe while traveling
Yay! I got interviewed by Myscha Theriault, co-author of 10,001 Ways to Live Large on a Small Budget. for an article on what to pack when traveling.
Please check out the article. It may show up in your local newspaper. The article hit the newswire today! Three cheers for newspapers! 
What are your tips for travel and wardrobe?

I just throw some clothes in a space saver bag and vacuum the air out. This lets you fit a ton of stuff in a carry-on. Of course you will have to iron, but most of us do that anyway…

I travel with sample sizes of toiletries and perfumes. Takes up less space and most are in plastic containers so they don’t break.

I save $$, time and lost luggage by only doing carry-on. Wear your biggest items – especially shoes. Wrap your suit around all of your clothes to prevent wrinkles. Put smaller items in a ziplock and squeeze the air out.

I travel regularly. I like all the suggestion so far. I also choose a color theme (blue, black, brown) and accessorize to death to freshen the look. I take older undergarments and throw them away on the road. You can also roll smaller undergarments and put them inside your shoes. Finally, save those dry cleaning bags and pack dresses, shirts and pants wrapped in them. It makes packing more organized and helps with wrinkles. Happy flying!!
