Team carry-on forever! Loved your tips. The other thing I've learned to do for longer trips is to try on every outfit *before* it goes in the suitcase. Takes some time on the front end but ultimately saves so much time and space. This is a tip I got after working with a stylist to pack for a 2-week trip that started with my family in Philly and included multiple book-related events in Europe. (Also, hot tip I discovered recently: if I'm not wearing it at home, I'm not going to want to wear it when I'm traveling, either...so just do yourself a favor and put it in the donate pile now).
