Perfect Festival Survival Kit

Good morning! How is everyone today on this semi-chilly Tuesday morning? After returning from Florida last night I am ready to get back to the daily grind of classes and work. I am also so excited to update the blog later this week with my pictures and stories from going to Ultra Music Festival. But first I wanted to share what I got from my March Love in A Box Partner, which was perfect for what I did last week!

This festival survival kit included the necessities such as hand sanitizer, colorful nail polish, and sequins headbands. It also included somethings I wouldn't think of like a little note pad and some pencils to jot down things you don't want to forget. Also a mani/pedi kit that is absoultely adorable and can really come in handy after days of raging. Thank you so much Jennifer!

Packing Is The Worse

But vacation is the best so it is all worth it! I am only taking a carry on suitcase for my week long trip to Florida and Ultra Music Festival. Lets hope my headdress doesn't take up too much space! I am so excited to be flying for the first time by myself. Also just for the excitement of meeting a bunch of new people at the festival and reconnecting with my cousin Hailey who's picking me up from the airport and letting me stay with her for a few days.

I am going to show you how I packed everything I think I could ever need in this little suitcase! It saves time and money to not bring luggage with you when traveling, and lets be honest it's more fun to buy stuff when you get there. Also I'll be posting my outfit I'm wearing on the plane cause I always love to see the different way people from around the world dress while traveling.

Rolling up my clothes is a major strategy in this type of packing! As well as being smart about where you stuff certain things, like all my four pairs of shoes on top of the vans I'll be wearing on the plane are in the side packs. My cosmetics bag is in the very front compartment along with my camelback so that they can be easily checked at security. 

House Hippies

Happy Miami Music Week! I am so excited to be down in the Sunshine state for a week and being able to enjoy all the good music I will get to see this weekend. I wanted to start off the week by posting about a new up-coming brand down here in Miami called House Hippies. This is not only a brand but a lifestyle that is represent through music and fashion.

I was very excited to get in contact with the founder of House Hippies, Alex, and learn more about this awesome brand that comes to life through the EDM community. I am also very excited to be bringing back some House Hippies gear to show off to my friends in PA. If you're a fellow raver I suggest you check out this brand for yourself! There snap backs are to die for.

Buy this here! 

Beach Bummin'

Lord does this feel like the place I belong, I thoroughly enjoy Florida and believe I would love to live here one day. Just the atmosphere of the southern influence and all the different ethnicities combining in one place makes me feel like this is a place I could really evolve and meet some wonderful people.

Feeling Spring Fever

I feel confident to stay that spring is here to stay in Central PA and that is very exciting after the long winter we had! Time to start transitioning the wardrobe from winter to spring, so nice to have some bright colors popping up and flats being able to be worn.

Today I decided to break out an Aztec print maxi and layer it with a long sleeve to stay warm in the wind. Being so petite it is hard to find maxi skirts that fit well so I love the illusion of layering a maxi so people thinks its two separate pieces. The warm up in the weather is definitely been reflected in my mood lately, I am just so happy.

Simple and Sweet

Taking a break from my normal love of bold patterns and prints I wanted to push myself out of my personal comfort zone today and just go simple. It is very rarely I am not in some big print, bold jewelry piece, or crazy printed pants so it was a little difficult for me to even want to wear something plain. However, I was glad I did this cause it shows that it's easy to be simple and cute. It also showed me that dressing in "plain" clothes isn't always boring.

Today's Look:

Top- LOFT 

Jeans- Free People

Shoes- Minnetonka Moccasin 

Enjoy The Ride

My oh my is it hard to get back into a routine of classes after more than a week off. It's also been very hard for me to stay focused on school with the start of new classes, work with the busy retail season starting, and my new news of landing an internship this summer in Philadelphia! I need to get things together for what my future will hold moving to a new city for the first time in my life.

So while I'm busy trying to get things in order in my life and stay on track with my school work I am going to enjoy every minute of the next few months. I finally feel like I'm growing up and am ready to do so, which is scary and exciting to say at the same time. Let's see what life has in store for me.
