nice a idea to use a cute clutch as the passport holder!

that purse is not only ugly but very theftable under your arm, with no strap... not good if you have your passport and credit cards and money in it

@Siobanphotogirl I was just thinking the same thing! lol. I'm all for not sacrificing fashion, but I also like to hang onto my things...

I will disagree with you on the shoes, though. It's totally a matter of preference, but I'd need at least 4 pairs (and probably more...): nikes for when you have your backpack on, casual shoes when you're sightseeing, all-purpose dress shoes, and sandals.

@heartgirl40 yeah, it all depends on your priorities for the shoes... and maybe the length of the trip... seeing as I'm always traveling alone ( :( friends can't just take off like I can, darn husbands and kids spoil everything!!! ;) ), I don't go partying while I'm traveling...i'm mostly there for the sightseeing. If I anticipated an evening out I might bring a pair of nice shoes too.

backpacking in Europe requires 2 pairs: runners for exploring and flip-flops for around your hostel/hotel/campground.

what about for backpacking in Europe for several weeks?
