For me, packing a couple of light sweaters is the best thing ever when traveling seaside – especially when beaching the Pacific Coast. Even on a hot day, the breeze can be nippy, and the mornings and evenings can be downright collld! Plus, a sweater can act as an added layer of sunscreen – win, win. So, I’m
Summer Style Travel Essentials
I’m not sure why I’m so enamored with the idea of a train station right by a beach, but I totally am. My family and I were driving around exploring, and this little station caught my eye, so we all wandered down, played on the beach awhile, and then as we were heading back, we

What I Wore: Day 3 Haley's Look
Fashion week is a daunting event to dress for, I’ll start there. Knowing that you will be brushing shoulders with editors and bloggers from your favorite website and publications (no joke I nearly collided with Anna Wintour) puts tremendous weight on the shoulders of a girl who allocates her budget to just a few “investment
