This week was filled with events and launches, so I found myself bouncing between two identities back and forth – a serious lawyer during the day and a fashion and style enthusiast in the evening. 
Among all the fashion events I attended, one stood out in particular that and left me speechless – the final works show of the Fashion Design Department graduates at Shenkar.

So what and how to pack for a business trip?
…Here are some packing tips

Business trip #2

I love hotels – a well designed lobby, a tidy room, chocolates on the pillow, wake-up call by a receptionist and a delightful breakfast.
I guess it's true, the setting does make a difference.
So if you're traveling on a business trip, do yourself a favor – do it with style.
