Guest Post: Travel Needs

Hey lovebugs! Taking a quick vacation (ha!) from color combo week for a fabulous guest post that I couldn't wait to put up! Check back tomorrow for the last of the color combos!

Hi everyone! I'm thrilled to be guest posting today on TCB! I've been a longtime reader of Kelsey's blog. I read her blog weekly for inspiration and styling tips. To start you off, when I travel my favorite thing is to be as comfortable as possible, but looking effortlessly chic. I got the inspiration for this travel wardrobe from fashion blogger, Liz of the fashion blog, Late Afternoon. Her look is what I envisioned for a summer trip with a few essentials of my own listed below. Read on!
