Hello from A F R I C A. Pete and I just arrived and are excited to embark on our second African safari together! Today I want to feature everything I packed for our luxury safari in Tanzania.

These items still make excellent outfits for visiting a ranch, going hiking or and an outdoor adventure.

What I Wore on a Northern European Luxury Cruise
ICYMI… we just got back from out amazing 12-day trip through Northern Europe (Sweden, Norway, Germany and Denmark) with Regent Seven Seas Cruises. I previously shared what I wore in Northern Europe for an early summer cruise that we took with Regent in 2024, which is still a great reference for what to wear. However, today I’m sharing what I wore on my recent late summer/early fall cruise, which can look slightly different. These looks are not only great if you’re traveling to Northern Europe, but they’re also perfect for a fall wardrobe refresh. You will notice a lot of mixing and matching. This is key for packing for a longer cruise. Use this as a guide to pack efficiently and you’ll get the most out of your wardrobe. And don’t worry, I’ll cover the full trip itinerary and all the details next week, so stay tuned!
