Travel Wardrobe for Germany

today i celebrate my 23rd anniversary. to celebrate my husband and i are going to germany. i am so excited. i've been getting my wardrobe together trying to have what i need without taking too much.

i have a red dress that travels well. it can be worn with my red polka dot flip flops or dressier with red wedge heeled shoes. i then have basic white pants and shorts, as well as olive shorts, jeans, and blue and white seersucker shorts. i kept the tops plain so they mix with all the bottoms. i have a gray top with rosettes, navy flutter sleeve tee, red top, white top, and not shown but i have a coral/orange top. i am taking a navy blue cardigan that has a ruffle edge and self belt. i am making some fabric flower brooches to wear to dress things up but can also use them clipped to a necklace or the cardigan belt. i am taking my tennis shoes, red wedge heels, red polka dot flip flops, red flats with fabric rosette on the toe, and navy/red plaid loafers. i found a mustard yellow backpack purse to carry my camera and purse essentials in. i will take two scarves which are pashminas- one is green and one is white. they are fabulous. you can use them to add a pop of color but they are really big when opened and i use them as a lightweight blanket or shawl when it is cool. i thought i would keep them in my bag and can use them to sit on since i am taking white pants.


now to get my house spotlessly clean. we have grandparents coming to stay at our home while we are gone and watch the kids. i can't wait... one more week. i get to go with my favorite person in the world. happy anniversary to the best guy in the world.

I'm so happy I stumbled upon your blog! It seems we share many of the same interests - and I live just outside of Montgomery, AL. I hope you have a wonderful trip!
