What I Pack for an Overnight Road Trip

Since the weather here isn't exactly 'springy', and all my friends seem to have gone off on vacation, leaving me with nothing but my computer to keep me company. I have decided to take a trip down south (still in the same state) to spend a couple days with sister. Considering that I don't want to waste my whole break siting indoors, afraid to brave the harsh elements, I think this trip is well justified.

There is nothing I love more than taking a road trip by myself. Driving down the road, music blaring, drink coffee, singing (aka screaming badly) at the top of my lungs. Oh the simple pleasures of life. :) However, packing for a trip on the other hand, is not exactly something that I would consider fun. I am usually guilty of being one of those last minute packers, who shoves everything into my bags at the last minute.

This time however, I decided to be a little bit more organized and actually pick out my outfits the day before, and put some time and effort into packing. So since I was already putting the extra effort into my packing, I thought I would share with you some of what I would consider to be my 'overnight road trip essentials'. (outfits, makeup, reading material, etc) I hope you enjoy!

For my overnight road trip I packed; 3 outfits, (you just never know when you may need an extra) 2 pairs of boots, (combat, UGGS) all my makeup essentials, a few magazines, my iPod, a GPS, (I'm really bad with directions) and of course some snacks for the road.  

I also packed some Pajamas, and my overnight stuff, (glasses,toothbrush,face wash, etc) I just didn't include a picture because I feel like those are more generic items (things everybody packs).

Spring Break Essentials

Although it is currently twenty degrees and snowing where I live, I am in fact on Spring break. And unfortunately for me I will not be spending my break anywhere warm this year, but that doesn't mean that I can't still dream of what I would be wearing if I was someplace with more spring appropriate weather.

With that being said, I thought I would put together a list of a few 'Spring Break Essentials' for those of you lucky enough to live somewhere warm, or for those of you planning to travel somewhere warm during your break. And if you're like me, and have to spend your spend your break indoors, sipping hot coco, and watching Netflix, then you can just take it as more of a late spring/summer essentials list.
