​Whether you are working from home, traveling, or exploring new environments a versatile and durable wardrobe provides you with peace of mind and the flexibility to do more with less. One of my favorite clothing companies right now is Western Rise, who make clothes that are not only comfortable and functional, but stylish as well. While trying to reduce the number of items that I have in my closet, Western Rise shirts and pants have been very helpful and in this article we are going to be taking a look at some of my favorites.

As a one-bag travel enthusiast, packing cubes have been an invaluable tool for helping to keep my stuff organized and force me to really think about what I want to travel with. Over the past year, I've become a big fan of the versatile clothing options that Bluffworks offers as they make it easy to travel more minimally and without having to compromise on comfort or style. With the ability to travel with less, however, traditional packing cubes are not always the most optimal solution. The compression on these cubes cannot be used effectively if the cube is not full, clothes can start to shift around or get wrinkled, and the cubes come in fixed sizes so you can often end up with just a little too much for a smaller packing cube, but not quite enough for a larger one. 

In order to help solve these challenges, Bluffworks got to work on their next project: the BluffCube.
