Girl's trip!!!



So my two besties and I went on a girls trip last October to Hotlanta (Atlanta) and stayed in the most beautiful hotel I've ever seen...the St. Regis. It makes the Ritz Carlton look like a Hampton Inn! We stayed in a suite and I fell in love with the decor. I loved it so much that I tried to redecorate my bedroom to look like our suite. I used pale blues and light golds to achieve the look I wanted...love it!

Anyway, we are going back to the St. Regis in March and I am already planning my "look" for the trip. It will be almost Spring, so I want to dress for happy weather. Every spring I get the urge to dress in nautical stripes and florals, but not at the same time! I want my look to be classic this year. My friend, Sarah, is a glamour girl (I think she looks like Eva Mendes) and my sister-in-law, Stephanie, is trendy and modern ( I think she looks like Sienna Miller), so I'm going to go classic, Old Hollywood (think Catherine Zeta-Jones) to balance us out. I have a fab trench coat that I bought on our last trip, so I'm going to base my outfits around that...like Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. I will wear dark rinse jeans, red patent leather flats, white button down shirt and my trench...perfection! The finishing touch will be my Louis Vuitton bag and Chanel sunglasses. I like to buy good quality bags, shoes and sunglasses and mid range clothes. A pair of big, dark sunglasses will make any outfit look fab!

I want to do natural makeup during the day and amp it up for our nights out on the town. I've really gotten into Clinique makeup lately, so I will probably use the Colour Surge trio in Totally Neutral. It is a great trio of taupe and grey with a highlighter shade in cream. Easy to use for day and can be smoked out for night. I'll pair this with a natural gloss for day and a shimmery one for night. I have a complex about my lips for some reason (I think they are crooked) and I don't like to draw attention to them too much, so I like to focus on my eyes...I like my eyes.

Well, I'm sure my "girl's trip plan" will change five times before we actually go, but that's the fun part of planning a trip, right? I love the anticipation!

Later,

H
