User Story

As busy, but fashionable person who loves to travel, I want to get it right. I go on vacations to explore and be fabulous. I need to organize my looks before arriving. I do not like digging through my suitcase finding outfits. I want to coordinate with my settings, to make sure I am comfortable. I cannot overpack because I do not want to pay for additional luggage. I have a lot going on, I don't have time for strolling through the mall.

I have no clue when it comes to fashion. I just know I need to look nice for these upcoming trips. I haven't bought clothes in a while, but want some new looks for vacation. I don't have time and can't hire a personal stylist, but need to narrow down options. Help!
