One question about knives/multitools. Are there any laws that would get my Leatherman confiscated and/or get me in trouble with the law? It has a 3″ locking blade. Note that I will only be traveling via train and am flying military air to and from Europe.

Thanks so much for the wealth of information!!
I’m interested in buying an Osprey Porter 46 bag for my trip from Amazon, and I’m concerned that it comes only in one size. I’m pretty petite (5’2”) and none of the sports stores in my area seem to carry this line of packs. I know I’m a Small for other packs that I tried on – do you think that the Porter 46 will fit?

I think the cut and fit of the item is the most important factor in looking stylish.

I realised that the girls had a foundation of really good quality well-cut items – jeans, light trousers, a skirt, (usually in black, but also navy or grey, but only one colour) and LOTS of plain white tailored t-shirts. They then had contrast items – a pair of bright orange denim shorts, a lightweight gauzy blouse or two in a print, or a black and white geometric type print blouse or a lightweight check shirt they could tie at the waist, a fluffy cardigan, and of course the scarves ….. and I definitely agree with the ‘rule’ of every garment working with everything else, layering is key to comfort AND style. Hope that helps!

I’m an aspiring traveler who had no idea how to go to Europe alone… actually, I was starting to feel a bit discouraged about this trip, but your site cheered me a lot! And here is the reason why I decided to comment on this specific article: I’m Brazilian and here, 10°C is really cold, so I had absolutely NO idea how to dress in the European winter. Once again, Thanks for these great tips. :) )

PS: I’ll try to buy the products you recommended via your Amazon link, the only problem is that some of them don’t deliver in Brazil, so I have to find those around here.

I was going to suggest that you sign up as an Amazon affiliate when I was reading your site late last night but I forgot to mention it just now.
