Vacation Dress

Tara Brose March 21, 2017

It doesn't matter how many trips I go on, I am still the absolute worst packer. Okay, okay I have to give myself some credit... I am actually getting much better, but it seriously takes me FOREVER to pack and I almost always end up overpacking! It's hard packing as a blogger because you know that whatever trip you are on, you are going to take hundreds of pics of your outfits and that means lots of clothes, shoes, bags, jewelry, etc. When I travel, I am normally collaborating with a few brands as well so I can't leave out any of those gorgeous pieces! However, I am finally starting to learn a few tricks of the trade that I must share with you guys! Packing with a color palette in mind or just sticking to neutrals helps to narrow down the assortment of accessories + shoes you need to bring. Also, if you're headed to a warmer-weather location, then take advantage of bringing a dress to create a one-and-done look! This Milly dress is super lightweight + perfect for throwing in your suitcase, but still has such cute details and a flattering silhouette! It's so easy to dress up for dinner with a pair of heels and also super easy to dress down with flats. I love everything about this off the shoulder dress and wouldn't be surprised if it starts to become a travel essential of mine! :) 

I can't wait to tell you guys all about our latest adventure in Miami and Key West to celebrate Zach's birthday! We had to escape the snow for a few days, but are headed back to NYC today!
