It’s that time of year for cozy sweaters and traveling for the holidays-oh joy! The former is definitely a better thing than the latter. I have been into pretty colored sweaters a lot this year. This one is from Banana Republic and has a cute tie back design. I almost never get clothes with cut outs but this one spoke to me for some reason. It might have something to do with the lovely golden mustard-ish color. I paired it with my favorite go tos: Levi’s high waisted jeans and ankle boots. Chillier weather is the best because you can cozy yourself up in sweaters like these!
In a week or so I will be doing a lot less cozying and a lot more traveling. I will also be flying “basic” economy which should be interesting. It’s really just a couple steps above hanging onto the wing outside of the plane. Basic economy doesn’t allow you to bring any carry ons with you, except for a small backpack. I am going hard on the minimalism and there is no room to over-pack one extra ounce! That’s why I was super happy to receive this little minimalist travel/makeup bag from Aifaifa. It’s made from an eco-friendly paper material and is even recyclable and biodegradable. The paper material actually feels quite durable and thick. It’s a good, compact size for traveling light which is imperative for me in a few weeks! I plan on bringing just the essentials in this bag–details on products are at the end of the post.
