a travel and style blog
When we pack for a trip, we largely consider the essentials: IDs, cards, and currency. Medication. Clothing. Shoes. Toiletries. But we often leave one category for last, if we even consider it at all: Jewelry. Just because something is small doesn’t mean it should be an afterthought. The jewelry we choose to pack and wear …
