Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I found a Baggalini that will hold my Kindle and all the other little things that keep me from running back and forth to my cabin. I bought an RFID blocking, rip-proof and with locking zippers bag on E-Bags that is my off the ship cross-body bag. Evenings I use a small hand made needlepoint clutch that I bought in Ireland.

That is just so cute!!

I love Laurel Burch! That bag is great. I just acquired a beautiful silk LB scarf that is going in my suitcase today!

What do you carry around on board the ship on sea days or such to carry your "stuff". A purse doesn't seem quite right yet not quite sure what to do. I carry my Kindle for books to read, a chapstick or such, reading glasses, sunglasses, a small sub block stick, and a few other personal odds and ends. What do you carry? What works well for you? Would love to see pictures if you have them. Thanks much!

PS: Big gratitude for the ideas for packing with just a carry-on--an earlier inquiry here. I had many great ideas and then a friend who travels extensively came on Saturday and I am packed!

Thank you!

Thanks for the list--really helpful!

We wear similar sizes. For our Baltic trip I wore Chicos black ponte pants and jeans. We had some hot days so be prepared for that also.

Thanks for the Chico suggestion!

I'm trying to figure out what to wear on the cruise. I really only want a carry-on and know some laundry will be required. I only wear pants anymore, so dresses are not an option. I also wear a size 12 to 16w so my clothes seem to be well, big. I do dress for dinner, dressy jersey fabric palazzo pants with silk tunics and a scarf or pashmina. What would you pack? Also does anyone have a recommendation for a great somewhat dressy jean in plus-size with spandex that can take a couple of wearings without stretching out.

How is the weather in the Baltic region in late April/early May? I realize I may not be preparing for chilly/rainy weather. Any one who can talk about the weather? Anyone with ideas or suggestions for weather and appropriate clothing? Thanks much!
