Happy Monday! After two and a half weeks, I am home from my incredible vacation. As I mentioned before, I spent Christmas with my family, and New Years with my boyfriend's family. These past couple of weeks were great for me! I was able to relax, exercise, spend time with loved ones, and eat amazing food! And let me say, Texas has some amazing restaurants (this coming from a woman who doesn't eat red meat).
In my previous post I wrote about my travels to Texas. On the day I flew, I wore my Cognac Leather Boots from Aldo. These boots are the most comfortable booties I have ever purchased! Not to mention I always receive compliments on them. I recommend these boots 100%! I wore my Bon Voyage Tee from G.H. Bass & Co. (Factory Outlet), and my favorite jeans from Express. I completed this look with one of my Nigerian necklaces. This outfit was cute, simple, and comfortable for flying!
For the most part, Texas had beautiful weather! It was a little cooler than I expected, and with only one black and white sweater, I had to work with what I had. Most of the outfits I wore were simple and versatile. This was great, because I was not sure of what we would be doing each day. Since I was with my boyfriend's family, I wanted to pulled together and cute.
Below, I wore my basic tee from Express. A similar tee can be found here. I am wearing my booties from Aldo, and my jeans from Express (as seen in previous picture). My Jet Set Logo Tote is from Michael Kors. My leather belt is from Express. The Polar M400 GPS Running Watch is from Polar. And my scarf was a gift from my boyfriend's mother. A similar paisley pashmina scarf can be found here, at Charming Charlie. I fell in love with this scarf, and wore it many times throughout my stay in Texas!
For NYE, my boyfriend's family and I went to Sugar Land's Town Center. It had music, food, drinks, and a light show shining on their Town Hall. I had so much fun! It was an amazing way to ring in the new year!
For New Years, I wore my favorite black romper from Express. This particular romper is not sold online at the moment, however, it is still sold in stores. Here is the same black romper, but with blue feathers. Other Express rompers and jumpsuits can be found here.
For my last night out in Texas I wore my frock dress. I love the blues and purples in this dress. I felt comfortable and pretty for my night out. This dress is from Express, but is no longer sold. Links to similar dresses, that I love, can be found here and here. I wore black tights with fleece interior. They can be found at Marshalls. I recommend tights with fleece interior for any New England girl. They are perfect for the chilly Northern weather. My leather lace-up boots are from a designer called Boemos, and can also be found at Marshalls. These boots are extremely comfortable, and can be worn casually or with a formal outfit.
This trip was amazing, but I am happy to be back with my boys! Something that I learned during this trip is to pack lightly, and to downsize. The luggage in the picture below are mine and my boyfriend's. For my next trip I am going to work on packing lighter, and more versatile outfits. Many of the clothes I packed, I didn't even wear. What a waste of space and weight!!
On my trip home, I wore striped fitted dress with an asymmetrical hem. This color is sold out online, but can be found in various stores. This dress can be found online in the purple. I wore my Sexy Stretch Leggings from Express. I chose to wear leggings instead of tights, so I would be more comfortable on my flight. I wore my Aldo boots, Michael Kors tote, Polar M400, and pasiley scarf, all of which were seen above. My black faux leather jacket was purchased, a few years back, at Marshalls. A similar jacket can be found at Forever 21.
My vacation was so amazing! I feel refreshed and motivated to begin the year with new goals. I hope you all were able to get some rest during the holiday season. Until Friday, and thanks for reading!
