“Travel far enough, you meet yourself.”

Nothing is more exciting than packing a suitcase full of fun clothes and jumping on a plane to a new destination. Of course the first question that goes through every girls mind is, “What am I going to wear?” 

Here are a few travel and packing tips to get you going on your next adventure!
-pack outfits. It makes life 100 times easier when you literally only have complete outfit options versus a bunch of random stuff. It also makes it easier to get ready and eliminates the stress of being on time. 
-don’t overpack. Easier said than done, but all overpacking does is cause chaos. Do you really need 30 shirts for a weekend trip? 
-make a daytime outfit easily transition to a night time outfit by bringing jackets,fun blouses, or a pair of fun going out shoes.
-pack according to weather, plans, and location. When I go home to Seattle I leave my Vegas outfits home because HELLO Vegas and Seattle are polar opposites.



If you need tips on what to wear to the airport here are a few key things:
-layer. you will need a jacket. it gets cold
-comfy shoes, pants, and a baggy tshirt 
-a big purse
-headphones

-a book or magazine

When in Doubt..

bun it out!
outfit details:
Jumper - AllSaints Method Sweat
Tank - AllSaints Wreath Vest

Lazy days call for bunhead and black sweats. On days where I feel no need to go out into the world, I often opt for a self-sustaining bun, a flowy tank, and comfy leggings. The bad-ass boots are optional. Sometimes you just need an outfit to watch Netflix in but still resemble like a member of society.

My perfect lazy day starts at 10am. A home-made smoothie to drink while I check my social media. I then like to put some Gilmore Girls on and pluck my eyebrows while snacking on grapes or cheez-its. And then the rest of the day snuggled up in my comfy bed, candles lit, and string lights bright. Give or take a puppy/boyfriend to cuddle with.

Midsummer Night's Dream Closet

Summer time calls out the inner She-Wolf that brews inside of me. The warm nights with the bright full moon, dancing until the sun comes out, concert after concert, late night adventures with unforgettable people. But an unforgettable summer is nothing without an unforgettable wardrobe.

Here are a few pieces I simply won't be seen without this upcoming months.

  1. Romper: What's the laziest thing you can put on this summer that isn't PJs or a tank and booty shorts?? A romper! Think about it, all you have to do is slip it on and bam, you're done. Longsleeve for the slightly chilly summer nights, the halter romper for more of a day look, and the sleeveless for the unbearably hot summer days &what says summer more than a floral print?

  2. Kimono: A Kimono is this summer's response to the winter's leather jacket. It's the perfect throw on for ANY outfit. Put it over a dress, a crop top and high-waisted shorts, bell bottoms and a graphic tee, or even just to wear over your lingerie while lounging around the house.
  3. Wide-Brim Hat: If you're anything like me, I like to keep the sun at bay, hence my werewolf ways. So this summer it's time to break out the wide-brim hat, floppy or firm. Anything to keep that sun out of your gorgeous face!
  4. Open Collar Necklace: The moment I saw Lily Aldridge wear that Marc Alary choker at the CFDA/VOGUE fashion fund I was destined to find one similar for myself! They're perfect for summer and showing off those clavicles.
  5. White High Top Converse: Coming from the girl who probably has over 20 pairs of black booties, something inside of me is screaming for a pair of white high-top converse! Take them to the movies, a park, for some yogurt, downtown for some drinks, or just to grab coffee, they're incredibly versatile. Pairing them with a super chic outfit makes it more casual and gives you a laissez faire approach to outfit making.
