SHOP THE LOOK

Happy Tuesday! First of all, I am super excited about this short week. I am finishing all my last minute holiday shopping, heading out of town for the holidays, and going somewhere warm. We are going to Florida, and while Miami doesn’t always have perfect weather, I can’t wait to feel the sun on my back. But first, I need to pack. Since, I am a huge pack rat, actually packing can become a disaster, especially when the dreaded scale tips over the 50 pound mark. How to avoid that mistake? It is not hard to do. Head over to your closet and start making a list. Rather than overpacking, try editing down as soon as you can. Those sneakers? Take one. The bathing suits? I will need six of those. Shoes are heavy so take a few and carefully select which ones get to go, and which ones stay.

Make a packing list when heading out of town. Here are my edits.

First I make a to-do list, then I check off all my beach-ready clothes and of course, shoes. Because I am going away for over a week, I will need all the utility-centric necessities. Staying fit while I am away is one of those necessities. For sure, I will be enjoying outdoor activities including jogging outside most mornings, one of my favorite things to do. TSA-friendly beauty-and-wellness products are indispensable for jet-setters. Sunscreen or even self-tanners are a must. And spark some wanderlust to take the sting out of packing. For me, its all about those sunglasses. They add the right pop and an element of vitamin D to any vacation edit. Rompers, loose fitting  pants, and some dresses. I am ready to go. Sort of. Finally, I am definitely over winter even though it hasn’t started yet. I am excited to be going somewhere warm.

Here are my essentials.
