Glamorise Sport Double Layer Custom Control Bra

November 22, 2013 Edith B

This one is for the ladies! Another challenge faced by Plus Size backpackers is to find a decent & supporting bra that won’t stink at the first drop of sweat, take forever to dry or ended up all crooked. ►►►

October 25, 2013 Edith B

September 17, 2013 Edith B

Another pick from Old Navy’s Women’s Plus Collection!
Do I have to remind you how excited I was – as most plus-size women – that this collection was finally made available to Canadian ladies… yay!

Women’s Plus Active Compression Tank by Old Navy

September 6, 2013 Edith B

Very recently, Old Navy Canada started selling their Women’s Plus collection to Canadian women. (Lucky for me, as I recently found out about their US Plus Size collection and was incredibly jealous… until I became really glad to hear the news, thanks to my friend and co-worker D.!) ►►►

Still on a Quest for the Best Backpacking Outfits…

August 16, 2013 Edith B

Though I never cheap on the amount of underwear and socks I need for the trip (they are generally quick to wash and air dry), I’m always looking to find ways to diminish the amount of clothing I carry along on a trip. ►►►

August 2, 2013 Edith B

Since my very first trip, in New Orleans, in September 2009, I’ve been on a constant mission to find THE perfect day bag, which combines safety, light weight and capacity to hold your required belongings for a full day away from the hostel/hotel room. ►►►

While looking for comfortable clothing made out of some of those quick-dry, lightweight, magical technical fabric, I fell upon the website of MiOwear.com. ►►►

♫ You can leave your hat on… ♫

May 24, 2013 Edith B

Even if it’s a tad bigger than the typical backpacker military cap and though it takes a tad more space, a military-style sun hat (a.k.a. boonie) is a better, safer protection against dangerous UV rays. Why? ►►►
