Weekend trips are my BFF4LYFE. Is that the proper term?
I love to travel, but I have to be honest….#honestyisthebestpolicy
I get reallllll antsy by day 4.
It’s not that I’m not enjoying laying by the beach and eating fish tacos, it’s just that my mind starts racing.
“Oh look at that girl in her bikini.”
“Great bod.”
“I bet she runs.”
“I bet she runs like 7 miles a day.”
“I should start doing that.”
“Honestly, I need new running shoes.”
“I should probably go to a store and try on new running shoes.”
“Eh, I’m on a beach, I can’t do that.”
“I’ll just look online.”
“47 e-mails. I should check one. Just so it doesn’t feel neglected.”
“Ah! That dinner is tomorrow night! I forgot to RSVP. I should probably get up from my chair and call her.”
Tell me I’m not alone people. Tell me I’m not alone! haha.
However, with weekend trips I’m able to completely shut my brain off and relax without feeling anxious to start a new project. I saw this article the other day about the 7 most relaxing spots in the US. How perfect is that? 7 easy weekend trips that don’t require much travel or stress. I’ve only been to Santa Fe, but I’d go again, and definitely want to see the others! Have you been to any of these spots?
One of my favorite parts about weekend trips are the date nights you get to experience. We always plan dinner a little early and love to walk around after exploring the town. I thought this little number was perfect for a weekend getaway. This skirt by Party Skirts paired with sandals and a tucked in tee for day and an off-the-shoulder top and heels for night screams vacation.
I’m headed to Austin this weekend for a getaway and I know it will be a perfect 24 hours away! Do you have any fun weekend plans?
Oh how fun! I bet it will be a great weekend for you. This palm tree skirt is so FAB! I love it!!

Charleston is a MUST if you haven’t been there. It is the most darling and charming city I’ve ever been to! You can just get lost walking through the streets and admiring the gorgeous homes. Plus, the food,shopping and nightlife is pretty great too! I am planning to maybe head down again this Memorial Day Weekend.

Eye-catcher!!
I love bold prints–My favorite designer is Lilly Pulitzer.
Will you do a post on how to confidently sport big, bold, colorful clothes?
Thanks for sharing!
Okay can we be friends IRL?
I was legit having these same thoughts about 3 hours ago. My husband owns a small tech company and works from home and I’m a model struggling with acne sooo I’m temporarily unemployed (and a brand new blogger). I’m totally Type A and love to be busy, but the issue with not having an “official” job at the moment is that everyone invites me places and I have no reason to say no. From camping trips to accepting every destination wedding invitation, it’s been crazy. I get antsy too… And then I feel insanely guilty for being antsy!
I know that sounds like the most #firstworldprobs thing; I never thought it was possible to be craving runs and work and business while at the beach. But that has totally happened to me recently.
Also, you look amazing and I need that skirt in my life!!!
