In two weeks from today Dave and I are headed to Europe for a whirlwind 12 day vacation! The whole purpose of the trip is to visit my little brother who is finishing a semester in Prague, but since Dave has never been across the ocean we decided to extend our trip to make sure we could see as many sites/places as possible. I’m already thinking about what to pack into a slightly-larger-than-a-carryon bag that can easily be carried around five countries, a few flights, and six train rides. Dave and I are generally pretty casual so I’m trying to come up with looks that can take me from a day of exploring to dinner al fresco with a bottle of wine and a great view. Here are a few items that I’d love to add to my suitcase {a few I already own, a few I’m itching to buy} – stripes, embellished sandals, big sunnies, and easy cross body bag, a little white dress, a breezy tank {paired with striped shorts, even better}, fun accessories, a maxi dress, and a stylish tote.
