Balancing Act

Maison Scotch Top / Frame Jeans / Mansur Gavriel Tote / Vintage Booties (similar)

A big factor when I'm traveling (and for life in general) is finding pieces that balance comfort and style. These Frame jeans were my heaven while traveling to four cities in two weeks on #avveurotrip. Soft as butter and oversized fit gave them that sweatpant feel without looking disheveled. To stay cool, I loved pairing the jeans with airy tops like this Maison Scotch. Super thin cotton and intricate embroidery breathed some life into the look both figuratively and literally. I finished off the look with these amazing western-inspired, vintage mules and malleable leather tote. Shop the links above for a look that not only looks good but feels good, too.

Baywatch Situation

Solid & Striped Anne Marie One Piece (Favorite 1, 2, 3, 4)

Hands down, my favorite moment in Barcelona was discovering this "private" beach. Anyone who knows me would I agree that I live for the beach, but I have never experienced one quite like this. La Playa de Montgat was just a few train stops outside of the city center. We crossed under the train tracks which parallel the coastline and the tunnel opened up to pure bliss. Only two girls visible in miles of sand. It was truly a breathtaking moment. 

Beaching aside, it was the perfect opportunity to break out my favorite one piece -- the Anne Marie by Solid + Striped. The perfect shape and scoop back have that nineties Baywatch feel but with a certain sex appeal. Shop the links above to check out some of my other favorite colors and patterns in a perfect one piece and don't forget to add this beach to your list when traveling to Barça.

La Boqueria

Edith A Miller Top & Shorts (similar) / Miista Booties / Mansur Gavriel Bag

One of the "go-to" spots while visiting Barcelona is La Boqueria (the market). The main market in town is chock-full of fresh produce, meats, cheeses, you name it!  I decided to play up the beautiful display of fresh colors by sporting a red and white look. I'm not usually big on color but red is a favorite pop and fun shade to throw into the mix when traveling somewhere sunny. I was head over heels obsessed with each piece in this look. The super-soft, ribbed, knit top and bottom by a brand that knows a good stripe, the perfect bucket bag, and a fun red bootie all combine for a comfy but festive look. Perfect for traveling in warmer weather I'd say :) Definitely add this market to your list (even if only for the photo ops) BUT do not bring a bag. It's pick-pocket city. The first of many tips and tricks to come on my posts of Barça. Enjoy!

Spanish Flair

Heidi Merrick Dress

In lieu of the fact that everyone has been traveling in search of warmer weather, I only found it fitting to take a little flashback to #AVVeurotrip and my time in the beautiful Barcelona. The city was so majestic and a perfect final stop on my trip. We visited some truly amazing locations and naturally took advantage of the Kodak moments. This layered maxi dress by Heidi Merrick was the perfect piece with that Spanish flair I was looking for. Light, gauzy cotton and bare feet. My kind of heaven. Shop the link above and stay tuned for more Spanish love.
