Hi! Whew, busy few weeks! I will be back to blogging this week and then “hiatus-ing” the next while we are in Italy and then I will be back once again. Someone asked me today at our historic flip open house sale how I juggle it all and well, let’s just say that when one aspect of life and business is the focus, other things just lag behind and finally after 42 years of life… I have become quite alright with that! It’s taken a “minute” but finally learning to “turn it off” and just do what I can do and be happy with whatever that may be each day!

Last Friday I packed for our Italy trip next week and today I’m sharing everything I’ll be wearing. I started these packing posts quite a few years ago to link everything and they have in turn become a tradition for me in really trying to narrow down what I’m bringing every time. It feels easier to go through all of the motions and try everything on and make sure it’s all what I actually want to wear so that I can always pack light and efficient. In the past I would just throw a bunch of things I like into a bag and hope for the best while only actually wearing like 40% of what I brought… at most! This way I pack each outfit exactly and I know that it fits and it’s comfortable and I don’t really bring anything extra. It feels so worth it once we are there!

Black Halter Tank / Green Lace Top / Jeans

These jeans are a MUST HAVE! They are very similar to a pair from Anthropologie I brought to Europe two summers ago that were two or three times as expensive. These are so incredibly cozy and cute! I am wearing a size small. I have been loving doing layered lace tops lately and this is a new one I got. Definitely size up though! I am wearing a medium and I just have it layered with a black halter tank. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Cream Top / Palazzo Pants

These pants are ADORABLE! They are a tad sheer so I will be packing a pair of nude bike shorts to wear with them. I just love this style so much as y’all know! And then I have it paired with a cute new top I got that can be worn on or off shoulder. I think it comes in several different colors. Wearing a M/L in the top. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Halter Tank / Skirt

This skirt is SOOOO CUTE! Amazon, as you probably know, is very very hit or miss but this was definitely a win! I’m wearing a small and it’s a great fit. I have it paired with the same halter top I have on pictured above, but in nude. I am wearing a medium in the halter. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Maxi Dress

Coziest dress! Maxi dresses are always a good idea and this one is super cute! I am wearing a size small. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Sheer Top / Green Jeans

LOVE this duo!!! Ab got me wanting this top after she wore it, and it was so so cute on her. I just have it paired with a kind of sports bra style black bra. These jeans are super cozy too! I would suggest sizing up a size. They come in lots of colors! I am wearing a size medium in the top and a 6 in the jeans. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Tank Dress / Cardigan

One of my most worn Summer dresses! It’s so simple, but just one of those things that you always want to throw on because it’s comfortable and easy. I have worn it on lots of trips and have linked it lots of times! Comes in quite a few colors. I am wearing a size small. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Maxi Dress / Cardigan

This dress was a shot in the dark, but I love it! It does have an open back so you either have to go bra-less or I got an open back bodysuit to wear under it. Someone suggested that so I’m going to give it a try! It’s so incredibly comfortable! I am wearing a size small. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Navy Top / Floral Pants

THESE PANTS! I have them in six different prints now and wear them all the time! They are so so cute! This top is one of my faves too. I got it in a taupe color several years ago and decided to order it in navy and black this year. I am wearing a small in both. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.

Purple Tee / Sweatpants

I’ve been wearing these sweatpants like crazy lately on IG reels and stories! Literally wearing it right now as we speak. So cozy and perfect for travel! Just got this cute top in too. Wearing a small in the pants and a medium in the top. I am typically a size 4 and am just shy of 5’7 for reference.
