Holiday Style: Party Picks

Sparkle and shine: here are some of my favorite holiday party picks of the season! Make sure to bookmark this page for updates over the next few weeks 🙂

New on the ‘Gram

Lots of great agri-tourism options in Western @vis Lots of great agri-tourism options in Western @visitcolorado. Who knew that it has the ideal climate to grow lavender? Got to pick some of my own lavender at @sagecreations and enjoy panoramic mesa views 😍 #ad
Hello. It’s me. The girl who has been at LAX fou Hello. It’s me. The girl who has been at LAX four times in the past week 😂 flying is a hot mess in the U.S. right now — from delays to cancellations, there’s a solid chance that you *might* have a bit of a bump in the road during your travel day. 

Here’s a few things to know before flying this summer:

+ The earlier your flight is, the better. Am I a morning person? Absolutely not. Do I book 6 AM flights often? Yes. If there’s an issue with your flight, you have more opportunities to get rescheduled to a later flight in the day. If you’re on the last flight of the day and there’s a problem, you can plan on staying overnight.

+ Oversold flight and flexible travel plans? You can get compensation if you volunteer to move to a new flight. You can get up to $1550 in compensation, depending on the value of your one-way fare & how long of a delay you’d experience if you moved to another flight. If my plans are flexible, I volunteer — I’ve gotten a few grand in flight credits over the years from doing this!

+ Having issues with a flight and need to speak to someone ASAP? Try sending the airline a Twitter DM! If they’re a major U.S. carrier, you can likely get through to a representative 2 to 4 times as fast than if you were to call.

+ Stay cool and treat people with kindness! Yes, it can be frustrating to have a delay or cancellation, but thousands of people are also dealing with travel issues right now. Airline employees are people too, and they want to help you get to your destination safely!

CHEERS TO 11 YEARS 🥂 On this day in 2011, I was CHEERS TO 11 YEARS 🥂 On this day in 2011, I was in college, I came back home from my fashion internships in New York and was certain that I absolutely did not want to work in the fashion industry in NYC 🤷🏾‍♀️😂 I knew I liked photography and writing, so I started a blog as a hobby.

Oh, the places that blog took me.

Fast forward to 2022 — this is now my full-time job, I get to travel across the globe for it, partner with my favorite brands, and most importantly— I’ve met some of my best friends because of it. Oh, and I have a book coming out this year as a result of the blog, too.

Life is short. Start the podcast. Launch the blog. Crack on with that YouTube channel. You never know what might happen. Cheers to the next 11 years 😊 Also, swipe for some of my favorite photos over the years and my very first blog photo ever 😂
STORY TIME 😍 I’ve spent the week wine tasting STORY TIME 😍 I’ve spent the week wine tasting in Abruzzo with @vinidabruzzo, and long story short: I’m not sure if I want to come back to the U.S. because I’ve fallen in love with the wine *and* the people of this region!

I have laughed, I have cried tears of joy, I have plotted with my friends ways on how I can move here (sorry, mom!) Abruzzo is one of the most underrated wine regions in Italy, and it’s about time we change that!

Abruzzo is known for its Trebbiano, Pecorino, Cerasuolo (a rosé of Montepulciano), and, of course, the Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. I’m not the biggest white wine drinker, but I fell in love with Pecorino on this trip!

I can’t wait to share more adventures, and I’m still writing down all of my stories from this incredible adventure. In the meantime, I’ll share the dreamy landscapes I’ve been viewing all week 😍😍😍
I am slowly but surely working on my LA guide for I am slowly but surely working on my LA guide for the blog, but in the meantime – one of my favorite spots to visit in DTLA is Grand Central Market. SAVE this post for your next LA trip!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Grand Central Market is a cultural landmark that has been operating since 1917. Here you can try some of the best food vendors and shops in the city! @ellenosyogurt just opened up their first shop in LA at Grand Central Market, and it's like a gelato bar, but with fresh yogurt 😍 Loved all the flavors here, but the Marionberry was by far my fave!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of my other favorite things to do in DTLA include:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Mural Hopping in the Arts District
• Getting Lost at The Last Bookstore
• Shopping at the Los Angeles Flower Market
• View Contemporary Art at The Broad
