Be Wild and Free

lake_tahoe_style__A_HOUSE_IN_THE_HILLS-901

One of the things I love about our life on the road is that it requires us to simplify in major ways.  My closet in the RV is 18″.  I have a couple of small cubbies besides for the closet that I can store clothes in.  So it requires me to be highly selective in my packing, and to create a sort of capsule wardrobe for the road.  And there’s something beautiful about having so little to choose from- and something fun about mixing and matching every which way I can.  In this situation I find that simple pieces, paired with a few choice accessories, allows me to feel effortlessly well-styled.  And these black jeans are getting ALL of the wear.  We’re off to Yosemite today, but here are a few snaps from Tahoe (I have a backlog of Tahoe snaps to share, so look forward to more soon and another recipe post as well!!) Until then….xx- Sarah  {photos: Lou Mora}

Stripes and Plaid

We’re currently enjoying Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo, which are both AMAZING!!!  The coastline up here, which is new to me, is seriously breathtaking.  If I wasn’t in a committed relationship with San Diego I would totally consider calling this area home!  I’ll share more from our trip soon, but in the meantime- a style post.  These are the kind of outfits I’m loving for traveling- and these overalls are my jam.  It’s a little campy (no pun intended) to be wearing them while camping, but I can’t help myself.  I’m a sucker for high waisted anything.  And plaid.  And stripes.  I’m basicallly just a sucker.  Ha!  More soon…. xx- Sarah
