Happy Monday, everyone! What a great fall weekend. We finally are experiencing cooler temps and enjoyed a weekend packed with soccer, birthday celebrations, block parties, and a few blog projects. Anyone who knows me knows that I love to travel. I was fortunate to travel to Germany by myself when I was a freshman in high school. I spent a summer over there with what would become dear family friends of ours. Ever since that summer, a part of me is always wanting to pack a bag and see what’s out there. I was super excited when Sole Society contacted me about a weekender bag. With two small children, my husband and I can usually only get away for a night or two when we sneak off. I think I picked the perfect bag for our next weekend away. So what’s in my bag when I travel? Almost always the same items! I pack a large scarf {big enough to keep me warm like a blanket on the airplane}, an easy to pack dress, a great pair of heels for going out at night, a new book, a little bit of arm candy, a comfy cardigan, and a second pair of jeans. Does any of that sound familiar? I have found that the scarf and accessories are the biggest key to keeping my bag light and my outfits pulled together. mason bag | ring | leather bracelet | chainlink bracelet | jeans | cardigan I am head over heels for these booties. They are so crazy comfortable and the little gold detail makes them stand out from the crowd. I also appreciate how soft they are. The weekender bag had me at striped lining and separate zippered compartment. I agree with the reviews that the bag needs to air our for a bit. mason bag | booties | boyfriend jeans | cardigan I really am smitten with my new bag. The zippered bottom section really sets it apart. I am just so excited that my shoes will no longer need to be mixed in with my clothes! That’s a genius design move. Now I just need to plan my next trip! So what’s in your bag when you travel?

Thank you, Caley! Couldn't pass up the stripes on the inside!

Love the striped interior and separate section for shoes. I was not familiar with this company and checked out their website. So many cute things at good prices plus many of their shoes come in small sizes, a big issue for me.

Yes! Me too! It has me wondering why more bags aren't designed this way. Have a great day!

You look adorable and ready for a weekend getaway! I think you need another trip up to the SF Bay Area, Marin and Napa! 🙂 Cute bag! Love the cognac color with the stripes.
Courtney {a thoughtful place} says
I say yes to that trip! Thank you for sweet compliment. And how could I pass up those stripes!
Jess Fakes says

Courtney {a thoughtful place} says
You and me both! I think it's in order!

I'm bummed they don't have that rose color sweater anymore. Great look!
Courtney {a thoughtful place} says
Oh no! so sorry. The cream one is a cute choice, too! Have a great week.

Cute bag, looks roomy enough to fit a few outfits and some beauty products for a night away from home. Love the pink cardigan.
Courtney {a thoughtful place} says
Yes! It's a great size for a little getaway. So nice to not have to take the darn black roller bag! Hope you're having a great week.

I dig the sweater/scarf combo and your gorgeous blonde hair! 😉
NoJo says
Love the whole look and you look so stylish for fall. I just tried your links to Nordstroms but they didn't take me to those items. The ruched leggings took me to swim suits, bummed. Thanks
