I love a bit of reminiscing, especially when it comes to the beautiful places and experiences I’ve had. The northeast feels like home to me, but New England has an air of a unfamiliar but comfortable place. Equal parts sleepy and enchanting.

Have you all been on any vacations that give you distinct feelings of space?

A few weekends ago I went up to Boston to visit one of my best girlfriends who moved away from the tri-state area. (le sigh) The only positive thing about friends across the country is the potential for road trips/weekend trips/new cities to traipse around. Clearly, I veer on the side of optimism.

Besides lots of best friend giggling, deliciously indulgent meals, and walking around the city, these are some of the most appreciated things I packed for the weekend:

1. A daytime dress that doesn’t wrinkle/can easily transition into a beach cover-up

2. A sun-smart hat that also is adorable (read through my waxing adoration here)

3. Flat sandals that will go with everything

4. Tee shirt and loose pant combo that will forgive you for all the pasta you ate the previous night …

5. A carry-all bag that you can store a clutch in for your nighttime rendezvous

 

It seems like every weekend I’m traveling, but still perfecting the art of streamlined packing. Have any tips or methods you’d like to share? Comment away below!
