I’m back with another real-life packing list today! This post is all about what I brought for our recent trip to Wilmington, North Carolina.

A Comparison of The Gathered Drape Trench and The Long Mac Coat from Everlane
At first glance, these two trench coats from Everlane appear very similar. (You’d be forgiven if you thought they were the same coat, just in two different colors). After all, they both have button fastenings, pointed collars, and storm flaps, and both are generously oversized. They both serve the very same purpose: to protect the …

Everlane Reviews: The Curvy ’90s Cheeky Jean, Organic Cotton Tissue Tank, Gathered Drape Trench, and ReLeather Tennis Shoe
Breaking news: I recently found the very first pair of 100% cotton jeans that work for my curvy figure. Up until now, all of my jeans have had some sort of stretch (at least, from my late-middle school years until my thirties—I have no idea what kind of denim my parents purchased for me as …

Traveling Light: A Carry-On Packing List for Minneapolis–Saint Paul, Minnesota
I can’t tell you how much of a relief it was to pack for the Twin Cities.

Traveling Light: A Packing List for Five Days in Mexico City
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I have a love-hate relationship with packing. I love planning outfit combinations and picturing all that I am going to do at a destination, but I don’t really love the actual packing part. I’ve made a great effort to consolidate all of my travel items to …
2019 Spring Travel Style Wishlist
I’m probably the only one in the northern hemisphere who’ll say this, but winter absolutely flew by. Partly because I’ve been so busy it was easy to ignore the weather outside, but mostly because the climate here is so mild (or rather, hot). I’ve seen the mercury reach up and graze the ninety-degree mark already …
Coastal Charms: A Floridian’s Day Trip Guide to St. Augustine
Ask a Floridian if they’ve visited St. Augustine before, and odds are, they’ll say yes. The subject of Florida History is studied state-wide during the fourth grade, and many Florida students cap their studies with a trip to the oldest city in the continental United States. It’s also a place Michael and I have visited …
Traveling Light: A Packing List for Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
I’ve always found packing for cities with a more “classic” style (say, Rome, Paris, or almost any Southern U.S. city) easier than packing to visit “cool” cities (New York, London, or San Francisco all come to mind) since my wardrobe is very low-key and contains very few “trendy” items. Still, I find I feel more …
