Holiday Housing Solution: Personal Travel Pod for Your Festive Sojourn
Hey there! Here we are, on the brink of Christmas, and suddenly, the pressure's on, huh? If you're feeling the holiday travel rush too, perhaps this post can offer some relief, especially when it comes to packing. Let's talk holiday capsule wardrobe, shall we?
Taking inspiration from Rachel Spencer's Top 3 packing method, I've structured my packing list: 3 tops, 3 bottoms, 3 shoes, a coat, base layers, PJs, accessories galore! Accessorizing is often overlooked, but let me tell you, those little finishing touches are key. They can take an ordinary outfit and turn it into something extraordinary.
My family's gatherings are anything but fancy, but I haven't skimped on the style. Check out the festive touches through the leopard fleece, hair bows, red plaid PJs, flare leggings, and green satin skirt!

Outfits
Outfit 1: Cozy Country Cousin
The Jenni Kayne sweater and Pendleton barn coat give off that warm, soul-soothing feeling, like a mug of hot cocoa with marshmallows. Boots are super comfortable, too - lightweight and great for walking long distances. And don't forget the finishing touches: the belt, earrings, vegan suede bag, and sunnies balance out the workwear vibe remarkably.
Outfit 2: Comfortable & Unique
This outfit is my personal favorite. It's comfy, casual - yet not basic. The flare leggings (under $20), leopard fleece with contrasting trim, and slouchy suede tote under $70 combine for a stylish look. And those shoes - they're a hit online, and I won't deny my love for them!
Outfit 3: Pop of Red
This is the dressier outfit of the bunch, but it hides the leggings beneath the satin-y mini skirt, making it cozy and comfortable. The headband adds some flair, and the beaded bag is a quirky yet stylish option.
