The wanderlust is real my friends. In the past two weeks, we’ve been to Seattle and Cape Cod to see/celebrate friends, but now we’re gearing up for a way more major getaway. At the end of the month, we’ll be celebrating our one year anniversary in Greece! I’m so excited – we had originally wanted to honeymoon in both Greece and Italy last year, but decided to take our time exploring the latter (read all about our adventures in Venice, Burano, Florence and Positano).

We’re ironing out our upcoming itinerary, but you better believe the outfit planning has already begun. I just purchased these mirrored sunnies (they’re only $50!) and have this pink dress and this striped swimsuit in my shopping cart right now. Can’t wait to share more, but until then … this clutch speaks for itself. Do you have any exciting plans this summer?

Packing for an Italian Honeymoon

Today, James and I are finally heading off on our honeymoon! We got hitched back in May, but decided to settle into the married life beforehand. I’m so glad we did because I’ve been looking forward to this adventure all summer! We’re jetting off to Italy, where we’ll visit Milan, Venice, Florence, Capri and Positano – needless to say, I can’t wait to get there!

As a serial overpacker, I really tried to be more planful with what I threw in my suitcase for this trip. Clothing wise, I packed a few of my favorite camis (they’re reversible, so I can get double the wear!), easy summer dresses and a leather crossbody bag monogrammed with my new initials.

In terms of electronics, let’s just say we’re prepared to get our tourist on. James picked up a new GoPro 4, I have my DSLR and we’re bringing a portable WiFi hotspot with us to stay connected – plus an external battery charger to keep everything juiced. I can’t wait to share more of adventures on the blog, but until then, you can follow along on Instagram (@skirttherules_) or on Snapchat (SkirtTheRules). Ciao bellas!
