Guesting: Tulip Louise's {Honeymoon-Inspired} Packing Guide for Provence!

As I briefly mentioned last week, my love and I are jetting off to Provence this week and I can't wait to explore the French countryside, the fresh markets and hopefully, a little flea market or two! I'll be sure to share some highlights of our trip soon {as it might help to inspire a honeymoon locale! (o;} but for now, the lovely and always stylish Anna, of Tulip Louise, is going to help us get in the Provençal frame of mind with some fabulous packing tips! Welcome back, Anna!

While we may be a bit envious of Classic Bride getting to travel the breathtaking Provence countryside later this week, we should still see her off in style {and hope she brings back a lot of photos for us}! Today, I’ve put together a fun little mood board to help her through the daunting task of packing for such a jaunt.
 

I am constantly inspired by my surroundings, and enjoy packing my travel wardrobe to flow accordingly. Since Provence is best known for the beauty of its villages and landscapes covered with vibrant yellow sunflowers, you will see quite a few playful yellow hues mixed inside our imaginary suitcase:  

1- A floppy hat is oh-so-chic and will shield you from the sun.

2- Rounded sunnies are all the rage this season and will protect your pretty peepers.

3- A small camera, so you can have it readily available!

4- We can’t pack for France sans stripes; this playful skirt can easily be dressed up or down by simply switching footwear.

5- Always throw in an oversized woven knit sweater, in case it falls chilly.

6- Over the shoulder hobos are ideal for a low maintenance handbag option.

7-A travel journal -- Memories get foggy and these are just too cute.

8- Dressy sandals; look pulled together, but remain comfy. . . what a concept!

9- Provence is known for April showers, so add a cute umbrella just in case.

Wishing you safe {and chic} travels!!
