Disclosure: Thank you to Nordstrom and Collective Voice for sponsoring today’s post. All products were selected, ordered, and loved by yours truly.
If you’ve been following along my subtle hints over in Facebook land… a trip to Italy has been on my bucket list for years! While I had every intention of heading out this fall, our schedule somehow managed to get busy enough [note to self: think before saying yes to plans when you have Italy floating around in the back of your mind] that it may have to be a next year thing. Regardless of whenever we actually make our way there, there’s one thing that is never too early to do – think about what I’d pack.
When it comes to where I like to get fun pieces for exciting trips, it’s the same place I like to get anything – Nordstrom. They always have such a large selection of inventory from high-quality brands I love and trust at price points both high and low. Another reason I love shopping at Nordstrom – free returns. Shopping can be tricky [do I size up, do I size down] and I typically like to order two sizes to be sure I get the right one. Knowing I can return with ease is worth every dollar in my opinion!
Have you ever been to Italy? If you’re thinking about it, here’s a must-see/must-do list, thanks to the help of the LIY community! Put ’em all on my list, please and thank you!
1. A boat trip to Capri island
2. Drink the wine & eat the pasta
3. Do a pizza crawl
4. Olive oil tasting
5. Tasting limoncello and crème de limoncello
6. A day trip to Cinque Terre
7. Positano Pizza Experience
8. Eat at Da Paolino under the lemon trees
9. A ride through Tuscany
Whether you have an upcoming trip, or just daydreaming [like yours truly] I do hope this post sparks some fun styling inspiration that takes you across the world, wherever you’re headed! Safe travels!
