You are the Fashionista! I have saile with you, and you are "put together" every day. Besides, you love talking about it until the day you sailed, Nancy! I loved reading your advice. I am sailing on the Enchantment with 3 girlfriends 11/12- cannot get a single person to respond to my thread. I enjoyed your company- and your fashion sense!

Hi all,

All bags are packed and ready to go. I hope I've planned well. I will have too much if we spend the day by the pool- won't need all the shorts and tops. But I think I did better than usual.

ourturn: thank you for your posting! It really helped reinforce my choices. I had 2 long gowns, but decided not to take them because I cannot get my husband into a tie. So this is our compromise- at least I got him on the ship, in a suit. 3 cocktail dreses wil have to do- along with sundresses. I live all summer in swimsuits and shorts.

See you at the CBar,Indiana. This has been fun! I've learned so much about outfits and packing. Hopefully, I will be back planning our girlfriends' cruise in October, 5 night cruise to Bermuda aboard the same ship- EOS.

Hi all,

Indiana, I"m glad you asked about the "dress" for a cold weather sailing! I had planned on a tan knit capri pants/matching zippered jacket for Sat, but I hate being cold. I don't know how much time it will take us to get on the ship, and if the area is enlosed? Are you wearing sandals? My DH will be in jeans- no shorts!

Glad to hear cosume jewelry- the variety makes it more fun! Inspired by you, I matched my jewelry with my outfits, even left some unneeded pieces at home

I have a beautiful, loving daughter who gives me great advise on skin care. We have an Estee Lauder Company Store in the Rehoboth Beach outlets- with their prices and her discount, I can usually buy what she recommends!

We sail in 3 days!Think warm!

Indiana, you are my inspiration! After reading your posts- I've developed my own spreadsheet. i've even matched my jewelry with my clothes- a first for me BEFORE a cruise. Bought a few more costume jewelry items to wear, will leave my really nice jewelry at home. What do you do- do you wear your best jewelry or costume?

I only use Estee Lauder products because my daughter is a planner for the company. I really like their sunscreen- very little smell, non-oily.My night cream is Time Zone- I think their products have really helped keep my skin looking smooth, and with foundation and blush, very few age spots show. Hope that helps- you can tell me if the products work when I see you this Saturday on the EOS. I'll tell you my age then! Can't wait to see you.

Here is a great way to see Old Town Nassau and learn a bit about its history. It takes in most of the sights you can pay for, but this one is free and all you need are some walking shoes.

It is one in a series of adventures on foot. The others are in Europe, but this one is made for the Bahamas.

Terrific! Thanks! I will use this- so much history and useful info!

I am reading "Fall of Giants" by Ken Follet- excellent, and will keep you busy all cruise. For fun, try Carl Hiasson's books!
