Hats Off to the Old City

09/17/21 | Costco, Croatia, Croatia Road Trip, Fashion Friday, J Crew, Rainbows

Happy Friday!  In what seems to be the trend of late I am pushing publish from somewhere other than London – hello from Charleston! I am in South Carolina for a few days for my bachelortete party which I am sure I will be posting tons of IG photos about but for now, let’s talk about clothes!  While posts may not ben quite as consistent as they used to be in lockdown (5+ a week), I am happy to share at least a few new updates with you all every week and I try my best not to miss a Fashion Friday!  I had originally thought this outfit post would be difficult to track down the items in this tourist style look but I was pleased I was able to find most – all linked below.  My favoriite item might actually be the panama hat which was great find last year from Costco, believe it or not.

It was perfect for the intense heat of Croatia, still blazing despite the fat it was early September.  The shorts I purchased last month at a shop only a few blocks from my house and were originally considered due to the linen fabric but I found them incredibly breathable and thought they were quite cute! These photos are taken in a few places – from a look out point on the Dubrovnik City Walls, from the 14th century Tvrđava Minčeta tower, and from the top of the St. Lawrence Fortress which was guarded by cannons. Take a look:

    Haven’t been there in ages.

    Glad that you got such a super day to tour the city. That blue sky makes a perfect back drop for you photos.

    Stunning and glad you both had a wonderful vacation.

    Looks like such a perfect vacation spot. Beautiful and a ton of history.

    So glad that you are getting to travel again. I always find travel so fun and exciting to add more memories of learning about new cultures.

    Would you take children there?

    You really should model in a travel fashoin magazine.

    Not sure how you always look so sleek and stylish while in practical touring outfits perfect for the weather and occasion.

    I really wish you could dress me!

    Perfect tourist style for a warm weather. When the world returns to normal and I can travel normally without all of these covid restrictions/mandates Croatia is a place to visit on our bucket list.
