British Bandmates

And I’m taking you back for a little London lovin’. London is one of my all time favorite cities, and I cannot wait for my next visit. I did just get some exciting news on my next travels though! But more on that next time. Here, Dylana and I were walking up to Primrose Hill…going ga-ga over it’s poshness. Can a place be any more beautiful and calm? I was honestly just hoping for a Kate Moss spotting (bullocks!) Anyways, we ran into these adorable little Primrose boys along the way. They had their hat out filled with pounds and everything! And yep, they were jamming just as if they were the little Beatles themselves. They made we want to be a kid again. I miss those days when it was totally acceptable to do silly things behind your parents backs just for the sake of doing it. Not that I still don’t. They were squinting in the sun and playing their un-plugged electric guitars as I snapped away. It was a perfect and random morning on Primrose Hill. London…and music…the best combination in the whole world.

Travel Curl Confessions

When I’m traveling, the last thing I want to worry about is my hair. That’s why I now never leave my house without a leave-in conditioning treatment. My favorite? By Paul Mitchell. It’s saved my whole Euro trip! Even my sister became so obsessed that we both shared it, using up the whole bottle in just a few days. It’s my new must-have for the plane, where my hair can get super tangly as I doze off, dreaming of my next destination. It helps brush out the tangles after days without a hairbrush. Yes, I’ known for coming close to dreads after any vacation! Traveling and moving from city to city always gets my hair in a rut, but I think I’ve finally found the perfect solution. Time to take the hat off!
I want to hear your curl confession as well! Find all my favorite products by Paul Mitchell at a salon near you here!

No Sleep in Paris

 (Vintage cargo jacket, Free People tunic, Dylana’s scarf, J Brand jeans, “Natalie + Dylana Suarez x Modern Vice” JETT boots)
Dylana and I definitely made the most of our days in Paris. We woke up extra early to coffee and croissants before jumping on the Metro to explore the beautiful city. Just the night before we were up in Bastille, making friends with the locals and playing the tambourine with a French band. I don’t know how we managed to get up this morning, but we did, even getting a glimpse of the Seine river sparkle so early in the day. Compared to NYC, Paris has a calmness to it. People can sit for hours facing the street just to people watch and everyone rents bikes to get around. There are just too many little things about the French that I love…including their simplicity. Therefore, I kept my wardrobe very minimal. Our JETTS fit right in! Right now, they’re still covered in dust from the Luxembourg gardens, and I don’t dare clean them. It seems weird, but I just want to keep just a tiny bit of Paris with me everywhere I go! Paired with my favorite pair of skinnies, and a mix of printed layers on top, it really is my favorite travel look. Thank goodness for Dylana’s scarf, which helped shield me from the Paris rain. We were shivering by the time we ended up at the Louvre Palace, but the trek was worth it. Louvre is stunning. Everything just seemed to glow more when it was wet. The open space, the incredible architecture, and not to mention, everyone running and ducking for cover in the rain, made the moment even more amazing. There are still many stories I want to share…I’m getting there, I’m getting there.
