Artefacts on tour

This time next week I will be unpacking my stuff in my penthouse apartment in Chelsea, NYC... As a taster, here is what I think will be my desk, onto my balcony with New York skyline (YEAH!)...

Ok, this is what I am unpacking from my carry on size Crumpler... these will be the base for my travels:

Black work trousers (dispensible)
Ponte jacket for work and play - acquisition from last NY trip
Sacha Drake 70s-esque pants suit
Coles skirt (potentially dispensible)
Sacha Drake wrap dress (check out this post and you can see the possibilities running through my mind - thanks Ingunn!) http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/7-days-one-wrap-dress-recap-of-dress-challenge-week
Trenery cardigan
Jeans (heaviest item but not sure I can wear black the WHOLE time)
Some long sleeve tshirts
Mela Purdie light weight water resistant coat that can go from trekking to theatre. Have some silk thermals to deal with the 0-15 temps...
Ankle boots
Ballet flats
One scarf (black) to keep warm... how many NY hours until I will have the choice of a squillion scarves on the street corner...
I will buy toiletries there, but I have relented and taking some Simplicite face cream...

OK.. so now I can play out the excitement of a multitude of cities against this minimalist backdrop... who knows what adventures are yet to be had!
