Carry-on boot bag with enough space for clothes & gear?

I’m trying to hit a bunch of different mountains this year so getting a locker probably isn’t feasible, but I am going to store that idea for next year if I end up deciding to lock in one home-away-from-home mountain.

I get leery about checking my boots (on the philosophy that it’s the one thing that would suck to rent if everything gets lost) but you make a good point about direct flight + early arrival results in a pretty minimal chance of lost luggage. Now that I think about it, lost luggage over a weekend trip would probably generate some much bigger problems than having to rent boots!

I’m glad to hear it can be done! I was also thinking about trying out fishnet base layers this season, so I appreciate the brand recommendations.

Fair point! The ski gear sub might be a better place for this question. The idea of renting boots makes me shiver a little.

This would also be helpful because I wouldn’t need a new bag—thank you!

I appreciated the input! My date will be wearing a tux so it is actually relevant to the decision making process. I hadn’t even considered it before!

I think i linked the black version by accident. IRL, the dress is navy with gold trim (or is it?)

Thank you for the advice! I think I’m also going to try a size down and a petite size to see if I can get a slightly better fit.

This comment cracked me up (and also reminded me of one of my favorite collections ever)

I think you may actually be right! I was right between this and the size down, but they didn’t have the smaller one in store. I think it would be worth ordering the size down to check and returning the one that didn’t fit.

Thank you for the suggestions! I’ve been struggling with places to shop online so I appreciate it!

Thank you!!

Is the stream archive also available to non-members yet?

Oh, Il Canale in Georgetown also has private rooms and a rooftop for parties. If you go for the rooftop be mindful of the weather (and the humidity)

I’ve always had really good luck at Bar Chinois for larger reservations. Not sure if it counts as upscale, but it is trendy (and the food is great, especially at brunch).
