This post is an update to my original Charleston Travel Guide. While I’ve visited Charleston five times both on girls trips and separately with Pete, this was Laura’s first time to visit the charming southern destination. So this blog post has become an amalgamation of all of my trips giving you the very best travel tips. Do you have any favorite spots in Charleston? To me, you could go numerous times and still discover something new!
But what do you wear in Charleston, especially when it’s hot and humid? You want to look cute and polished but stay cool and comfortable. Today I’m sharing exactly what to pack and what to wear. Whether you’re brunching on King Street, heading to Sullivan’s Island, or enjoying a rooftop cocktail, this packing list will help you dress the part without overpacking. We were there four days and three nights and had just the right amount of clothes. Don’t worry, our full travel guide will be out soon so you can plan your itinerary!
I just got back from a little retreat to a luxury spa in Texas and it was so beautiful and relaxing that we literally forgot where we were. Lake Austin Spa Resort will always be a great spot for rest, relaxation and a reset. It’s an exceptional destination for a girls trip!
Howdy! I’m back with my second installment about the Big Bend, Texas road trip. Last week I told you about The Local Chapter and how we spent most of the week glamping while exploring Terlingua and the Big Bend area. We had a couple of days to explore Marfa and the surrounding areas of Alpine and Marathon, Texas. Why? Let me explain…
2020 will be remembered as the year of the road trip. I’m a native Texan and have traveled many places in our great state but I have never been to the Big Bend area. Imagine my excitement when we decided to travel to check out The Local Chapter near Terlingua, Texas. You’ll want to know about this magnificent place and we’re sharing our itinerary.
As promised last week in this Sonoma County blog post, here is more on our recent trip to the Sonoma Valley Wine Country. Specifically, here are the details on our Jordan Winery Estate experience. The trip was so great thanks to all the help Jordan Winery provided in planning our itinerary in Sonoma! Why Sonoma? We’ve visited Napa many times over the years, but Sonoma only a few times, and Jordan’s one of Pete’s very favorite wines and now Jordan Winery is our very favorite place to visit in Sonoma. You can stay at Jordan Winery. Want to know how?
Here it is! My first travel post since February! Travel definitely looks different in this Covid-19 world. While I think that everyone should certainly be mindful of what they are comfortable with, Pete and I were ready to get out of town – safely. Today I am sharing my exact itinerary for our trip to the Sonoma Wine Country and all of our recommendations. Plus, my honest opinion on the flights, airports and how safe we felt.
I can’t believe I actually traveled this past week! Pete and I ventured out west to Sonoma Wine Country in California for a quick trip. It definitely felt odd to fly, but we always wore a mask and felt safe the whole trip. The airlines are taking many precautions, hoping to alleviate any fears travelers may have. I will write another blog post detailing the trip soon but first I want to share my Sonoma packing list. Below are the items and looks I curated prior to heading out. Also be sure to check out my list of travel essentials and gadgets to help make travel easier.
Since we can travel again, I thought what better time than to round up my favorite trips in the US? Most of these vacations are within driving distance, so you don’t have to fly if you are not comfortable yet. Nothing like a summer road trip! It is also the perfect time to start planning your trips for 2021. Last year, I attended the Dallas Travel & Adventure Show and learned TONS of insider tips and tricks for booking travel. Be sure to read up on all of them here. Another resource that is fantastic is The Points Guy. He is great about listing the latest travel news and country openings so that you can maximize your adventures. OK, let’s go on our US adventure!
If off on my next beach trip and will be the blogging about the amazing destination soon. If you ever want a real-time report, just follow along on Instagram and watch my IG stories. Let’s talk a little more about the Disney combo trip. Laura and I attended the Disney Creators Conference and were lucky enough to attend both Walt Disney World AND enjoy a Disney Cruise. Be sure to see why this is the absolute best combo for a trip. There’s so much to do and see, so I will give you some pointers on what to wear while you’re exploring Disney.
Laura and I just got back from such an amazing week with Disney. We attended the Disney Creator Celebration which gave us the opportunity to experience both Walt Disney World and a Disney Cruise. You all know that I recently traveled on a Disney Cruise to Alaska and was just at Walt Disney World in December for the opening of Star Wars Rise of the Resistance, but let me tell you, this land+sea combo is the prime way to vacation!
Pete and I just got back from the most amazing media trip! The new Star Wars Rise of the Resistance ride opened at Walt Disney World on December 5 and I was invited to cover it. Of course, I took my biggest Star Wars fan with me to experience the ride. But there is so much more happening at Walt Disney World that I wanted to share what you can look forward to. Check out 10 NEW things to know about Disney World!
Hopefully you caught my play-by-play on Instagram stories, but last week I was in Florida for an influencer trip with the brand Soma. I’ve talked about Soma many times on the blog like in last week’s blog post here. I love their bras and pajamas, but I also love their super comfortable, cute and easy clothes. Besides my shoes and accessories, all the outfits in these pictures are all from Soma and linked below for you. So let me tell you about this exciting Soma Influencer trip to celebrate 15 years of the brand!
WOW! It’s mid-August and I am just now writing about my trip to Boston that I took at the end of June. I’m doing a quick recap of this fun trip and giving you details on where to stay, what to do and of course… where to eat! Because I feel like that’s all we did. Oh, and of course I’ll link everything I wore.
I hope y’all had a great Fourth of July! I had a nice four-day weekend just relaxing at home with Pete. While I love a lazy holiday weekend, it’s taken me a couple of days to get back into my work rhythm. Anyone else? Every month or so, I like to put together an Instagram round up of some things I’ve been up to and cute finds I have been loving. Plus there is a Shopbop Sale Alert in today’s post as well as some final Nordstrom Anniversary Sale strategy before the Early Access launch on Friday. So let’s get into it!
