Weekend Getaway

Style., Travel.

Happy weekend, lovelies!
This weekend, we’re headed for a family weekend away to Kansas City to visit some friends. We’ll be out on the town shopping, having backyard BBQs and just having tons of fun in general. I knew I wanted to have several different outfit options since we don’t really have an exact schedule for the weekend, which means we could be doing a lot of different types of activities. The thing is, I didn’t want to bring a big suitcase with me, so I created a grouping of outfits that comfortably fit in a small duffel all the while allowing plenty of different options! {side note: How cute is the Stella & Dot duffel below?! Crushing so hard on the print!} Anyway, since the variety of activities going on this weekend could literally be well…anything…I wanted to be prepared without over-packing. Letting simplicity be my guide, here are my picks for a quick weekend away!
Weekend Getaway

 

Since I’ve been on a health/fitness kick lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about how to incorporate workout gear into my daily outfits still while looking super trendy and fashionable. The Finish Line has some great Nike joggers that can work as both workout leggings and regular pants. That’s why I love my first outfit combo so much because with two tops and these joggers, I can be ready at the drop of a hat to either have a fun night out on the town looking cute in the H&M boho tunic or go have an outdoor adventure in the Free People workout tank!

 

Since a small duffel bag/backpack sized carrier doesn’t allow for that many clothes, I knew I wanted to find a pair of shoes that could work for a really long walk outdoors as well as function as a cute pair of shoes to go with dresses. Thankfully, Birkenstocks are entering the fashion scene once again, so I think I can manage only bringing one pair of shoes for the trip!  Of course being in a big city with a great shopping scene calls for a cute dress and hat, so I was super excited to see this adorable Topshop dress while shopping online! And isn’t the Anthropologie swimsuit just the cutest? Speaking of Anthro, I can’t wait to get shopping because we will literally have an Anthro and Free People right outside our hotel! Ya, I’m going to do some damage this weekend…I can just feel it!
Have a happy weekend and I hope you enjoyed the packing tips!
xoxo & much love,
