  • Always into variations of camel, beige, and taupe. 🐚 👝👡🧥There's a trend online that I very much enjoy called "dressing like a stick of butter" which is basically wearing winter whites or creams from head to toe. I love it but recreating it would require me to buy more stuff and I can't justify that kind of consumerism, so I'll just settle for "dressing like a camel in a white scarf". 🐪
  • Never not wearing a turtleneck. My faves are skin tight and have a bit of stretch. In heavy rotation since 2016 are the Julie turtleneck from Club Monaco for the perfect blend of wool, the Tissue Tee from JCrew for the colour selection, and the Uniqlo ones for the price!
  • What do you all do with your plants when you leave on a trip? Back when I lived with roommates, we'd have an agreement to take care of pets and plants for each other. Now, if it's a long trip, I ask a friend to house sit or even rent out my place sometimes. Anything to make sure my apartment is still full of living greenery when I come home.
  • Is "dry clean only" a deal-breaker for you when buying clothes? It definitely makes me think twice, but I still indulge in the occasional high-maintenance piece. Building a travel-friendly wardrobe means choosing items that are EASY to clean both in the washing machine and by hand when on the go but a lot of the high-quality pieces I love happen to require special care. I'm so torn! 👗 I do tend to play it a little fast and loose with the care instructions on every day items like silk blouses, because I can't afford to dry clean THAT much. Not to mention, I don't live very close to an eco-friendly dry cleaner. I always dry-clean coats and jackets, however, because keeping the shape is my #1 priority. One time I was able to use travel to my advantage was in Sofia in December. I dry-cleaned this camel coat at the hotel because it was convenient and way cheaper than in Montreal and I'm so glad I did because it came back looking beyond new. . . . . #wearthisnext #fashioncanadians #ootdsubmit #ilovestreetstyle #aboutalook #fashioninspo #outfitdaily #styleblog #lookoftheday #fashiondiaries #fashionblogger #fblogger #outfitblogger #outfitinspiration #nomadlife #digitalnomadgirls #capsulewardrobe #minimalistpacking #womenwhotravel #lookbookmontreal #fashionistalook #mtlfashionbloggers #darlingdaily #canadianblogger #realstagram #travelfashion #travelfashiongirl #fashionandtravel #styleoftheday
  • Once in a while, there are situations that take us to wildly different places and weather within the same trip. I mean the type of trip where you may be visiting two cities back-to-back, or maybe you’re traveling during especially finicky seasons like winter and spring, where half your time might be in sunny weather and the other half in a snowstorm. 🌨 - How do you pack to face all that weather with the same clothes? On the blog, I try my best to answer with weather-defying tips so you're ready for anything (link in bio). 📱
  • Never NOT on my phone 📱...Who else is in the same boat? I'm straddling the line between loving the interactions and the community I'm building through my blog and reminding myself this is just a part of who I am right now, not my identity. If I have days where I'm not responding or light on the Stories, it's because I'm being in the moment (and will likely blog about it later anyway 🙃). Hope you’re having an amazing weekend! . . . . #wearthisnext #fashioncanadians #ootdsubmit #ilovestreetstyle #aboutalook #fashioninspo #outfitdaily #styleblog #lookoftheday #fashiondiaries #fashionblogger #fblogger #outfitblogger #outfitinspiration #nomadlife #digitalnomadgirls #capsulewardrobe #minimalistpacking #womenwhotravel #lookbookmontreal #fashionistalook #mtlfashionbloggers #darlingdaily #canadianblogger #realstagram #travelfashion #travelfashiongirl #fashionandtravel #styleoftheday
  • I pretty much always travel with the same suitcase, but the second bag, my "personal item", changes depending on the trip 💼. I used to travel a lot with this @everlane backpack 🎒 because it is minimalist, chic, and holds a surprising amount of stuff! I also often take my @away weekender bag because it can be convenient for little day trips or overnighters when I'm doing a "trip within a trip" and it slides onto the suitcase handles. Both of these bags have dedicated laptop pockets, which is AWESOME, because I don't put my laptop in a soft case nor do I carry a traditional laptop bag. 👜 However, on my last few trips, I've taken this huge leather carry all with me, for two reasons. The sheer size fits all the in-flight essentials I need for a 6+ hour flight: Travel pillow, headphones, snacks, toiletries, kindle, water bottle, laptop, and cables. Second, the fact that it's leather and kind of chic means I still feel stylish when I use it for daily purposes. It doesn't feel like an explicitly "travel" bag. It doesn't have a dedicated laptop sleeve nor does it have a zipper, two things I wish it did. I still feel like the perfect chic travel tote bag for women in tech doesn't exist, except maybe for the @daame bags, which are always waitlisted or the @cuyana bags with the organiser add-on. 💼 Any suggestions??? What do you use as your personal item? Please share and tell me why! . . . . . #girlsthatwander #packinghacks #suitcaseflatlay #whattopackforvacation #travelinstyle #overdoseintravel #girlsaroundtheworld #shedreamsshegoes #welltraveled #packlight #babeswhowander #travelcommunity #wheretofindme #packingcubes #traveltips #creativesessions #lifeofadventure #exploretocreate #travelwithme #sheexplores #travelblogging #travelforwork #professionaltourist #aroundtheworld #styleinspo #travelgram #travelbloggers #traveldiaries #dametraveler #capsulewardrobe
