I think I’ve mentioned that we have been snowed in for days, and I can’t take it anymore- so I am getting out of town! I’m heading down to Palm Desert to see my folks for a few days, and hopefully get some much needed warmth and sunshine.

The before outfit is just a little boring, so to add some interest, I’ll tuck in my shirt, put on a belt and add cute booties. Since I’ll be on an airplane, (and I’m always cold on planes) I’ll need to add a little warmth by throwing on my Mer-sea shawl. This was a gift from my sister- and let me tell you, it is fabulous! Especially for traveling. First of all, it’s like having a blanket, it’s so cozy. Next, it has pockets! Oh yeah! Plus, it’s machine washable- which will be necessary after being on a plane. And (saving the best for last), it comes with its own little pillow case and can be folded up and turned into a pillow if I want to sleep! How cute is that?
When I arrive in the desert, I will put my Mer-sea shawl in my carry-on, roll up my sleeves and throw on my flip flops. Then I’ll be ready for the sun!

Shirt- J Crew
Jeans- Levis, Marshalls
Boots- Paul Green, Nordstrom (similar)
Scarf- Mer-sea
Hey Megan! Heading down my direction for the sunshine now?! Enjoy yourself!!! 😉 Love the after look, and the after after look too! Switch out those Sorrel boots from a few days ago for flip flops in a hurry, yay! Gotta love modern travel and the changes it can make in short order!! (Caveat: We are expecting rain in the next few days though!)
Thank you Melissa! I’ll take a little CA rain over 2 feet of snow any day! 🙂
