We are so excited to be heading to Austin with Sperry for SXSW, today! We have been wanting to visit for quite some time now and to be able to go during SXSW is even better than we had hoped.  We’ll be there for five days covering the event, checking out all the music, films, and exploring downtown. We’ll be sharing bits and pieces of our days on instagram and snapchat, so be sure to follow along with us over there. 🙂

Traveling more was one of our goals for the new year, and so far we have been checking some pretty fun places off our list.  To be able to visit new cities almost every month, get immersed in the culture and food, meet new people, meet up with some old friends, and experience new things together has been a dream come true.

The one thing we don’t love about traveling is the packing.  We’re sure we’re not alone on that. Our last few trips to NY and on our cruise, we completely over-packed.  It was ridiculous.  The amount of shoes, accessories, and tops we brought along and didn’t wear were a complete waste of space.  Little by little, we’re getting smarter about packing and bringing along versatile pieces for day and night. Again, the philosophy of less is more, rings loud and true. Everywhere you look it seems festival dressing is all about bold prints and lots of accessories, and where that definitely works for some, for us — not so much. Here’s our minimal take on SXSW style, with some comfy and versatile pieces that will fit into your everyday wardrobe, and save you a little space in your suitcase too.
