packing for paris // 18 items in my bag

Bonjour, friends! I’m writing to you from way up high… currently en route to Paris! My bags are all packed, checked and, gratefully, under 50 lbs. A huge win in my book! (Technically the largest one was 52, but the kind attendant looked the other way. Whew!)

My friend Caroline and I will be landing at 6am this Monday morning, and plan to hit the ground running. No time to waste, am I right?

I thought it would be fun to share a sneak peek at what I’ve packed up for the 10 day journey ahead. I love dressing for Paris, especially in autumn. Give me all the layers! You’ll be seeing plenty of looks over on Instagram these next two weeks, but here’s a preview.

I kept my ensembles very classic and neutral for the most part, but there is one trendy piece I’m so excited to break out… these mom jeans! I never thought I could ever pull them off, and maybe I can’t (haha!), but I’m officially obsessed. Can’t wait to wear them!

Signing off to watch Aladdin and hopefully get some sleep before the long flight ahead. Wishing everyone a fabulous start to your week!

Love from Somewhere Way Up High,

Kate

    NRA Members beware…!!! I joined the NRA wine club on the exact day I received the offer email (6/12/2012). I received my wines today (6/19/2012) HOWEVER… None of the wines promised in their email and still being offered today were included in my shipment. Also the Free Wine Tote or the $25 gift certificate that was to be shipped was even shipped yet…
