I have always wanted to go to California! I have a couple of friends who live out there and they love it! I actually went to L.A. a couple of years ago for a blog conference, but I didn’t get to venture out beyond the hotel and the area around the Staples Center. I did go on a walking tour, which was amazing, but there is so much to see in California besides downtown L.A.

In looking at those nine photos, I realized that they were all photos I posted to promote a blog post I wrote, with the exception of the ninth photo. So as a recap of last year’s “best nine” {I mean, today is #flashbackfriday, am I right?}, I thought I would share the blog posts that match […]

Links I Love: November

November 18, 2017 No Comments

With the Thanksgiving holiday less than a week away, I decided to post the “links I love” a week earlier this month because I wanted to share some links I’m loving this month, from secrets to packing and holiday traditions to travel alerts/warnings to First up is “The Secret to Packing for Thanksgiving”, from Damsel in Dior, a.k.a. Jacey Dupree. Thanksgiving provides people with the opportunity to take an extra long weekend trip and if you’re like me, you tend to overpack or pack unnecessary items that you end up not wearing or using. Jacey put together a great list […]
