This eve I have had the problem of packing; I am always of the mentality that I should bring everything to have a good pick of clothes when I'm out there. In reality my battered weekend case can fit a very limited selection. The sensible thing to do would be to decide on outfits prior to departure but this is all too stressful, I could never be that strategic. So as usual, a host of my favourite garments are nestled together in un-matching glory. I did try and put a few items in there that should be good staples:
Lace Topshop leggings, bit more interesting than tights, and hopefully Barcelona will be a more suitable climate to wear them that icy London.
Emma Cook T-shirt; comfy slouchy and my only real colourful item
Seychelle boots; really comfy yet reasonably heeled. I can usually walk for quite a while without whining in these.
The fury gilet. I though that I could wear this alone or layer it over a coat. I have no actual idea of the temperature in Barcelona at the moment... so layers are probably a good idea.
I can't remember what else is thrown in the case so that will be a surprise when I get to the hotel! I shall have my Mac with me so may have a chance to blog however it sounds like a busy time with working days and partying nights. If not I will return on Friday with a tale or two hopefully.

I think you're on the right track but prepare for rain!
Have fun!
Agh 30% chance of precipitation, I hope my boots survive! Thank for the tip, I should have thought of that!
Oh Barcelona is so wonderful. Even if it rains it will be fab.
Wow sounds amazing. I love Barcelona.
Look out for Zazo&Brull and Manuel Bolaño whilst you are there. They are two amazing local designers that I discovered when I went to Barcelona Fashion week (http://asensesublime.blogspot.com/2008/09/080-barcelona-fashion-ss-09.html)
Also, go to Bar Marsella and have song absinth, I think it is my fav bar in the world! http://www.barcelona.com/barcelona_directory/bars_cafes/bar_marsella
Drink and a catch up on your return?

Packing is the worst... I hope you'll sort it out, and have the best time down there.
I made the polaroid effect on my photos using a programme called poladroid, which you can download for free.
Oooh, I adore those items. The lace leggings are great. It's got to warm up some time!
