4. Sticking to the essentials when packing.
For some reason, women tend to overpack and bring too many things. A survey suggests that women overpack by two-thirds when going on trips! This ends up being a luggage burden and most of us are probably used to it. Surprisingly, there is an interesting reason.
This custom is related to times when women used to wear elaborate outfits with very small pockets and thus had to carry bags — sound familiar?
- “I am a minimalist myself. You have to learn to pack right. ”
- “Now I am a little older and much wiser and one pair of jeans works, unless I want to go to a fancy restaurant or club venue.”
What women can learn from men: Keep it simple and concise when packing for the holidays.
