No Pahking

When: July 19, 2021 // Weather: 70 and cloudy // Real life: vacationing in Ogunquit, ME

I TOOK A VACATION! I went somewhere new, sat by the ocean, ate, drank, and only opened my laptop once in a whole week. It was glorious.

If you follow me on Instagram (which you should because my captions are snappy and I never do those annoying reels), you already know all about our trip to Maine to celebrate our 10th anniversary. This was my get-up on our first full day exploring Ogunquit and soaking up the gorgeous views (not this parking lot…I mean pahking lot) despite the clouds.

I highly recommend matching sets for travel. Wear them together one day, then split them up and wear with other basics two other days. Boom, that’s three different outfits without much thought and it conserves room in your suitcase.

I don’t know who decided that jean shorts are such a great summer style staple, but I would like to file a complaint. They aren’t really that comfortable, especially when you’re sweaty. Granted I’ve had this pair for a few years and by booty is bigger now (thanks, squats), but still, I don’t remember them ever being that great. A year and a half of working from home has really made me notice what I do and don’t enjoy wearing, and it turns out I don’t enjoy wearing a sweaty denim chastity belt.

I think I’m ready to take these to a secondhand shop and let someone else wear them…someone who hasn’t seen the light yet.
