Guys, I am so excited for Memorial Day weekend this year as I am heading South to New Orleans! I have never been and have so loved getting excited through everyone’s tweets of Musts, etc. If you have any recommendations, please do share in Comments so I can use them as a guide while I’m down there. In the meantime, I thought I’d share some of my packing inspiration. I’m packing dresses and sandals almost exclusively (am a wee bit scared of the heat!), but will have a pair of dressier shorts and wedges thrown in, too, I’m sure.

I can’t wait! Have you ever been?

{boston} bound!

By on May 3, 2012 in Lifestyle, Travel

 

Hopping a train to Boston this afternoon to meet my sister who will be flying there from Chicago…weee! I haven’t been to Boston since I was little (in 1994!) so I am long overdue and can’t wait to explore the city and see a few friends while I’m at it.

Have any recommendations of things not to miss? I would absolutely LOVE to hear them!

{recent} travel essentials

By on March 2, 2012 in Beauty, Fashion, Lifestyle, Travel

 

  1. Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair, $80 // This has transformed my skin since using each night before going to bed and it’s a new ritual. Plus teh bottle is under 3oz. for carry ons.
  2. Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream, $26 // This was a recent purchase and I love it for being lightweight, yet super hydrating. Also small enough for travel.
  3. Jouer spf 15 Lip Sheer in Positano, $22 // This was sent to me recently and I fell in love because the color is sheer, yet adds enough color to wake up your face just a wee bit for early runs to the airport.
  4. J.Crew Lula Patent Leather Ballet Flats, $128// These have been my footwear of choice on planes (and in life, really) and they are so comfortable.
  5. Luna Bar in Iced Oatmeal Raisin, $2 // If I don’t pack these, I eat horribly when at the airport. This is my flavor of choice.
  6. Benefit Cosmetics’ They’re Real Mascara, $22 // I do very little makeup these days and when I do it consists of a bit of lip color and this mascara. Instant transformation of your face with just your lashes. *dreams*

Over the years as I’ve traveled more for work and lots of long weekends with friends, etc., I’ve gotten real good at packing lightly and efficiently. My most recent trips to Clevelandand Los Angeles found me with light luggage and I’ve finally narrowed down to some of my most recent favorite essentials for when I pack up and hit the road and wanted to share those here.  Do you have any favorites I need to look into!?
