MOODBOARD NO.13
I've never been a carry on girlie, but people can do hard things!
Normally I check a bag, I like the convenience of having options and the fee never really phases me because I NEED my things.
My daughter and I were traveling back to California to visit my parents for spring break and with the LONG TSA lines and traveling with a 6 year old I was terrified to wait in line to check a bag and then potentially have to get in another line just to get through TSA, so a carry-on it is.
I knew I had to be resourceful and pack outfits that I could mix and match throughout the week so my packing this trip was VERY intentional. Here’s everything I packed in my carry-on and surprisingly I had room to spare!
I brought my favorite bikini for a pool day I had planned with my bestie mariah dyson. Here’s a version listed on Poshmark. Paired it with my brown havaianas.
I was supposedddd to go to The Crenshaw Mile, but I woke up super jet lagged and decided to take the day to rest. Traveling with kids is NOT for the weak. This is what I would’ve worn.
I did however wear my sneakers (that took up most of the space in my suitcase) to Disneyland! We had a blast and I was comfortable all day in these GAP lounge pants. I paired them with a vintage Star Wars Tee I scored on eBay.
We decided to do Easter service Saturday night to avoid the crowds Sunday morning but that didn’t stop me from getting my fit off. I wore this Zara dress that I plan to get altered soon for another event I have coming up, stay tuned !
My travel day outfit there and back was the same, shoutout to my parents washer and dryer! I paired my favorite vintage trench coat with a simple white tee from Plain Jane New York duh, some vintage baggy Levis and a sweater from Quince in case I got cold on the plane (spoiler alert I did not)
I also started reading ‘Sky full of Elephants’ by Cebo Campbell and am loving it so far !
While traveling through JFK and I*e agent checked me in at TSA and although it was jarring to see it, it unfortunately is the reality of our country in real time. Here are a few funds you can donate to to support those most affected by our current administrations policies :
