The #1 Travel Item You Need in Your Suitcase

Olay Fresh Effects S'wipe Out! Refreshing Make-up Removal ClothsWith the holiday season literally right around the corner lots of you will traveling to see family and friends that do not live close to you. Which means that you might have to stay the night or for a few days.

Recently I went on a trip to visit some family on the East Coast and have discovered the one crucial item that is absolutely essential for having a great time and feeling comfortable anywhere.

MAKE UP REMOVAL CLOTHS!!

This might a no brainer for most of you, but I was sincerely surprised how handy these little towelettes are.During the trip I used these daily. Sometimes even when you scrub your face really well there's still some makeup residue left, which clogs up your pores. That is the last thing you want on a vacation. These little towelettes take off all the spots you missed by just using your cleanser. [Plus if you are in a sketchy area you can use these as a sanitizer for your hands.]

What is your tip for traveling?

Favorite Printed Tees

Favorite Tees

Lately, I've been really into wearing tees with a cute picture or some beautiful positive words. Currently, we are experiencing some major cold weather here in Portland(possible snow in the next few days- yay!!) thus layering is a must
 Here are some of my favorites tees that go under my cardigans. All of these are from Old Navy and are about 10$ a piece. They are super soft and look great with my staple winter outfit which is a combo of jeans, boots, sweater and scarf. 

 What are some of your winter staples?

We're both quite excited -so be on a lookout for all different types of posts!

To kick off Blogmas we are starting with answering questions to an award we received a while back from our lovely blog BFF, Belle
