~ I consider myself a weekend warrior of sorts! Whether I am driving down to Baltimore to see my besties or driving up to Vermont to ski, I love to get the most out of my weekend time. Weekends are for adventures, and you never know what might pop up! You have to be ready for all occasions (But what if they want to go out? What if we make a bonfire? What if there’s a hot tub? Etc.). This might be why I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS pack more than I need. I can’t help it! I used to be embarrassed about my overpacking tendencies, but now, I think it’s a good thing! I find I’m always prepared and always have enough to style and share with my friends.

I love this weekender bag from United Monograms! It’s bigger than any of my other weekend bags, including my XL zip-up L.L.Bean tote. There’s also a shoulder strap that attaches in the same pretty mint color. I’m also a sucker for pretty gold hardware accenting any accessory (and of course…MONOGRAM EVERYTHING)! The opportunity for some absolutely epic weekend trips is on the horizon for me (I will divulge all SOON I promise!) and I can’t wait to bring this bag along!

Also, I should mention that these shorts are my new favorite. The fit is absolutely perfect and I love the texture combined with the scalloped hem. This flutter sleeve top is incredibly feminine and makes your shoulders look tinier than they are! It also comes in other colors/patterns, here & here,  (which I will probably be going back for this week!)!

Have you taken any epic weekend trips lately?!

Gratefully with love,
