Guys.  It is sweltering outside and I feel myself melting.  Dramatic, I know.  I spent this past Friday-Monday in NYC and I am missing it so much.  My girlfriends from all over the world and from all parts of my life were present (totally not planned!) and it was amazing.  I got to see my besties from NYC, Vermont, and Malawi (Africa!)!  My heart was so full.  I could totally get used to the lifestyle of hanging out with my ladies during the week and then meeting up with Bryan for a nice dinner, wine, etc.  Shh…don’t tell him I said that!

My Essential Travel Toiletries and How I Keep Them Organized - Stylista Esquire - @stylistaesquire

It’s been a while since I have done a Travel Tuesday post, so here it goes!  I am talking about some of my must-have toiletries that I always need in my bag.  Plus, I am sharing this makeup/toiletries bag I found that has become a lifesaver.  Let’s be honest, trying to pick and choose what products you bring with you on the road can be such a hassle.  If you are anything like me, you think of each and every scenario and rationalize packing your entire bathroom with you!  A while ago, I set on a mission to pare down my travel essentials to what I really need.
