Concert Wear: Fitz & the Tantrums

Recently, some friends and I went to see the Fitz and the Tantrums and Capital Cities in concert. Truly, this was one of the best shows I've seen in a long time. Both acts pumped up the crowed, and we even learned a few dance moves during the show. It really felt like a big party.

For this fun fest, I busted out my crazy tiger tank. It's pretty fierce for a night out of jumping and singing. I also grabbed a comfy pair of flats and some dark jeans to dance the night away.

Also, I hope you enjoyed the first feature of Menswear Monday! If you haven't had a chance -- check out G, here! Thanks for reading :).

Thailand: Koh Samui - Da Beach

Beach G

It's our last day in Thailand -- so we're having our last hurrah at the beautiful Koh Samui beach. G & I are no strangers to the beach, so we grabbed some cocktails and relaxed. 

I'm wearing my new favorite, white dress I got on super sale from Gap. Sometimes you can really get stellar deals on the clearance rack at the back. 

There's just something so fresh about a summer dress in white (here's a winter version). Hmmm.. I'm already missing the sand & the sun!

Thailand: Big Buddha - Road Rules

Thailand: Koh Samui - ASOS dress

Thailand - resumed! 

G & I went to the one of the best restaurants on the Koh Samui island - The Larder. The food was great and a nice break from street food, and things on the go. I'm wearing my new favorite vacation/summer dress from ASOS. I love the print and the side slit is not too high, but still sexy. Maxis continue to be comfortable, yet stylish. 

I can't wait until it's warm again to wear this dress! #PolarVortex

Thailand: Night Bazaar & Thai BBQ

G - blog posin'

Later Bangkok! Our next stop is Northern Thailand to a city called Chiang Mai. We spent our first evening checking out local crafts and beautiful fabrics at the night bazaar. This market is open late with great eats, all types of meats on kebobs and various types of fresh fruit.

G and I took a break to grab some Korean/Thai BBQ close the bazaar...YUMMY!

Thailand: Tigers and the Floating Markets

Tigers in Thailand! Just about two hours outside of Bangkok, G & I were lucky enough to visit a Tiger Conservatory led by Monks. This epic visit was no easy feat (car sick Jane.. bleh!), but it was worth it! These animals were so cool and though it was a bit scary, they were beautiful!

We also visited the famous floating markets (the "Venice of Thailand") where there were a ton of textiles, fruits, vegetables and restaurants. The market was totally vibrant, loud and buzzing with tourist. 

Did I happen to mention Thailand was hot, hot, hot!? Weather was high 80s, lower 90s. Good thing I found a coconut stand. So, we spent the day looking at handmade goods, and finding some solid deals. I'm totally diggin' Thailand! :)

Thailand: The Grand Palace

T H A I L A N D 

G & I made it! The journey took us 23 hours of travel through Chicago and Seoul to arrive in Bangkok! You may remember that G & I traveled to Cancun last year -- a short, short 5 hours. Alas, this year we hit up the other side of the world for some adventures. Check out the packing details here! 

First Stop:  The Grand Palace. This impressive and beautiful palace was the home of the Kings of Siam. We explored the grounds for hours, and visited the Emerald Buddha. We were greeted with heavy rain! However, it did not deter us and certainly did not take away for the majestic scenery.

How to Pack: Look by Look

I love visiting new places, but packing is probably one of the most arduous tasks, especially for an international trip. However, it's always worth the effort and planning for a great destination. For a few weeks "G" and I are going to Thailand on holiday.

Here is a quick preview of some looks that I'll be wearing over the trip.
