How does one effectively travel from a frozen location to a tropical one without freezing or overheating? I wore this–sans the heels–for my trip from Chicago to Miami a couple of days ago, and goodness. What a hassle. I’m freezing all the time, so traveling in summery clothing really wasn’t an option for me. But arriving in Atlanta (70-degree weather) and then Miami (83-degree weather) in snow boots, a wool sweater, and a puffer coat?
Hahaha.
I’m not the best at traveling, as I’m pretty weak and majorly struggle with luggage. (A few years ago, my brother had to carry my suitcase all over Paris for me. Thaaaanks, Patrick.) So you can only imagine what I looked like trying to juggle a carry-on, tote bag, laptop, puffer coat and pair of snow boots. At one point, I found myself kicking the boots onto the Air Tran. (What? At least I wasn’t kicking the laptop.)
But I’m not complaining. ;) Because my snow boots and I are IN MIAMI, and we’re so happy. Sunshine, palm trees, daiquiris and girlfriends–what could be better?!

Happy bachelorette to Kim, my future sister-in-law! We love you! :) xoxo











Kel! I’m so glad I’m not the only one who bought TWO of these sweaters. My absolute favorite. Thanks for pointing me to clothes that make me feel great (and, especially in this case, don’t break the budget!).
Hope you’re having a fab time in Miami! Can’t wait to hear about it!

I know what you mean, it’s hard to determine whether you want to freeze in the beginning of your travel or have a heat stroke upon arrival to your destination! Such a pretty color on you Kelly, have fun in warmer climates!

Gorgeous outfit! I love the striped sleeves peaking out from the sweater. You missed amazing weather here in Chicago today (not as great as Miami). I could stand to be outside for more than 5 minutes and didn’t have to wear gloves, a hat, and scarf to keep warm! Enjoy the warm weather in Florida!
