I Was an Overpacker All My Life Until I Did This 1 Thing

Look at your list and the items you've decided on, and then find ways to downsize. Is there a coat you can wear every day? Instead of packing a pair of heels for each night, is there a pair of heels that match with everything? (I still found a happy medium by packing a dress for each night but downsizing on the number of shoes I carried.) This is when you should think about items that are multifunctional — like my leather jacket for all the dinners / late-night excursions because it was functional and stylish.
