This month, I’m living in resort wear because I’m off to…
It’s surreal that I’m here to tell you that I am leaving town for the remainder of April. That’s right, the entire rest of the month. I’ve never had to set an out of office notification for such an extended period of time. Not that I’m really great at promptly answering messages anyway, but that’s neither here nor there.
I am feeling grateful, completely spoiled and at this point, a little stressed.
How did this all come about, you’re wondering?
Well, first of all, my Blogger BFF and I are off to…Thailand! We’ll be spending 8 days in paradise with Contiki. I’ve never been to Asia and I’ve never done a tour before, so I’m really looking forward to experiencing new and exciting things that are a bit outside of my comfort zone. We’ll be on their Thai Island Hopper West, which includes Phuket, Koh Phi Phi, and Krabi. Have you ever been? Have you done a Contiki Tour before? What should I know?
I fly back and then have a day and a half to frantically do laundry and re-pack before Adam and I go meet my family in Kauai! We’re doing a big family vacay to Hawaii which will be hectic like family trips are, but hopefully also recharging. It has been so much fun shopping resort wear for these sunny adventures, I can’t wait to show you all the cute things I’ve packed!
There will still be plenty of blog posts coming your way over the month of April. I have, for maybe the first time in years, a bunch of posts scheduled. Plus, my trips are always working vacations. I don’t know if I have ever been able to go away without my laptop in tow.
I am totally at that point where I’m unreasonably sad to leave Reggie, even though he’s going to be just fine without me. It’s more that I struggle to leave him (I seem to be the one with separation anxiety lol). Have to finish packing, some last minute errands to run and loose ends to tie up before I jet, but once I’m sitting on that plane tonight, I’m sure it’s all going to sink in. Then I can relax and let myself be excited!
I’ll be vlogging all of it and posting regularly on Instagram while we’re away, so be sure to keep up with the adventures on IG @aliciafashionista. Love and light, my friends xo
I’m in head-to-toe Nordstrom, c/o, as we took these photos for my recent Instagram collaboration with them (though, this is not a sponsored post). These were some of my spring picks from their Vancouver location!
