L I F E / Packing For Fashion Week





sweatshirt: self made
beanie: Topman
iphone case: Pantone
box: Maison Martin Margiela jewelry packaging

Yeah, as if.
As if packing my bags for Fashion Week looked something like this.
Reality is more like a big pile of stuff on the bed /wires, chargers, necessities like a toothbrush and creams, notebooks, camera lenses, sneakers, heels, more clothes, some underwear and spare socks/ that has to all fit into a 55cmx40cmx20cm(you know how strict those airlines are) luggage piece. Made it work by bringing lots of practical basics -as usual- and put some extra time into picking the right accessories.
London here I come!

Your Topman beanie looks cute. Of course getting luggage packed for the trip isn't easy but the photos give a nice feeling about including things we love to take along. I hope you have a wonderful and happy time at London Fashion Week!

WooOoOW that sweater! What is it made of?
& I totally agree with the basics + accessoires, also when not travelling.
& that beanie is very very white, I like it.

Nice items in this post!

I wanna know this too!!! I've wanted to make one for ages. It seems like a treated sweatshirt fabric or something I have no idea

Anonymous said...

What fabric is it? I would love to make one too!

Hi Ivania!
Hope you have a nice trip and a wonderful experience in the LFW. I can't wait to see what you do in there! please, keep us updated :)

about the look you were, I'm in love with all, but the sweatshirt you have done i like the most :)
what kind of fabric you used to sew it?

Anonymous said...

Could you do a tutorial on how to make the sweatshirt? I love the shape and look of it.

jen said...

show us how to make your sweaterrrr!!! xxx

A Minor Obsession said...

I picked up a LFW newspaper today that someone had left on the train, and saw a picture of you, looking as gorgeous and cool as ever xx

Unknown said...

Boo! Guess who? lol
I'm super suprised how you managed to pack for fashion week in such a tiny suitcase, I guess being the master of minimalism has its perks in the know-how on how to "tetris" your items into the bag. LOVE all the whites, holy holy <3
