Hi everyone! My brother and I took our parents on a once in a lifetime trip to the South of France in June. I want to share what I learned from this travel adventure.
Here’s how to start, where to stay, what to pack, where to eat, villages to visit, how to get around and my woulda coulda shoulda list.
I had fun snapping these pictures with my Mom before we went out to eat for the gazillionth time đ and wanted to share this retro look with some ideas on where to find classic pieces for your summer wardrobe staples.
How to stay keto on the go
Traveling is tricky. In so many ways. Especially when it comes to staying healthy, especially if one of your health goals involves ketosis. I want to share my top 5 supplements that make traveling easier.
Itâs challenging to balance new adventures and foods with the demands of a ketogenic diet. My last few trips have completely knocked me out of whack. By âout of whack,â I mean out of ketosis.
What does that mean? For anyone unfamiliar, the ketogenic diet is a type of low carb diet. Unlike other low carb diets, keto emphasizes the fat-burning state of ketosis. Ensuring youâre in this state requires routine measurements of your blood ketone levels. Anything under .5 millimolar ketone/blood concentration means youâre out. And it typically doesnât take much to knock you out, even though carb tolerances vary by person.
When researching places to stay in Hawaii before our trip, my dad made the suggestion to see if they had any Relais Chateau properties on the island. This hotel company
I really wanted a long furry vest or coat that is on trend at the moment. This is how I improvised to get that effect. I got lucky and had a warm fur vest that layered perfectly with my Theory coat from the fall. This fur vest I bought five years ago on clearance at Saks. It is extremely warm and the style is very flattering especially for fur. Fur can make a curvy girl look larger than necessary if you know what I mean. I plan on keeping it forever. I am linking a real fur vest option and some fab faux fur as well. (see below) I also layered my bags if you will. My belt bag held my phone and the larger bag was perfect for my camera and other fashion week goodies. How do you feel about belt bags or fanny packs? Vintage Chanel is my favorite. Check out this post for a more casual way to wear the belt bag HERE. The best part about this belt bag is that it fits my i-phone 7plus perfectly. I linked two similar belts bags below from the same vintage Chanel dealer that I bought mine from on Etsy. She has great reviews for a reason. I have a fair amount of experience ordering vintage online. Let me know if you have any questions. I may do a post on tips that I have learned if you are interested.
