Fashion and travel, two of my favorite things. And they go hand in hand in many ways! When I start planning a trip, I immediately start planning my wardrobe. What will the weather be like?

In less than a month, my boyfriend and I are traveling to Ireland – which will mark his first time EVER out of the country. I remember my first time out of the country, and how much I didn’t know, how much I was unprepared for. So like the good girlfriend I am, I started … [Read more…]

He was amazing, even through the rain. Oh yes, the skies opened up this afternoon. It was not completely unwelcome though. The temperature dropped, and … [Read more…]

This is my third year at … [Read more…]
