CHECK IT OUT WITH NORDSTROM

Good Morning! How is everyone? I am worn out from traveling last week, then coming home to unpack a gazillion boxes! We seriously have accumulated too much stuff!!! I am trying to find a place for it all, but I really want to just give a lot of it away. Isn’t it crazy how your taste changes from time to time? I love a “warm and cozy” feeling house, but I think there is something cathartic about being a minimalist and having a very sparse home. Anyway, I am not a minimalist, so my house, for the time being, is going to be filled with “stuff”. Today I wanted you to “check out” this cute and comfy outfit that I will be traveling in next week from Nordstrom. I live around the corner from Nordstrom now (sorry, husband!) and it’s always my go-to store because I can get everything I need there.

We are going to Italy for a wedding. This will be my second trip to the country and my first time to attend a European wedding. I’m excited, but I am already stressing about the packing and what to take. The wedding is black tie, plus there are other events associated with it that require a particular dress code, so it’s going to be tricky packing. I will figure it out eventually, but I am more concerned about what I am going to wear on the plane that will be comfortable, and that I can wear a few times. I went to Nordstrom last week and found this cute soft check tee from Rag & Bone. I will top this with a soft and warm cardigan for the plane. I love this tee, and (side note) don’t you think this could be a cute one to wear to a football game if you are an Alabama fan? I am wearing my black Paige jeans with the frayed and slanted hem (similar pair). I can wear them day or night on the trip. My favorite thing are these slides by Sam Edelman! Y’all, I promise they feel like house slippers. I think they are the perfect long flight shoe. I can take them off and put on those little”airplane” socks, then slip them back on for bathroom breaks. The ones I am wearing are not available on line, but this pair is similar and just as comfortable because I tried them on.

Do you all have a favorite outfit to travel in? I think this Tory Burch sweater would be great with jeans or this tee with a black legging, cozy cardigan, and a sneaker. For long flights, it’s all about comfort, don’t you think? I’m trying to find a different carry-on bag. Mine doesn’t hold as much as I would like and gets very heavy. Maybe I will take my carry-on suitcase, that way I can roll two bags! I have turned so many people on to this bag! It’s the best carry-on suitcase for short trips, but I think I might use it for my actual carry-on. It’s soft and expands so that you can pack a lot in it. Does anyone have a favorite bag they could recommend? Would love all recommendations!

Hope you all have a fantastic day! Thank you so much for reading! xx
