Road Trip Essentials.

Thursday, September 22, 2016

Holly was driving her car from the Gold Coast to Canberra (about a 14 hour drive) and I wouldn't let her do it alone... One, because I know how boring that drive is and how boring driving is when alone - and Two, because I love spending time with her :-) 

We did the drive in one day, Sunday, which meant that I got to spend the whole day on Monday in Canberra before having to get a super early flight home (7am) on Tuesday.

Aside from the clothing and stuff that I'm taking (seen below) here's a list of some very essential things for a road trip [in my opinion]:
1. A groovy playlist: 

2. Snacks, whether it be something healthy like cut up fruit, or some chips and lollies, are always an essential part of any good road trip!

3. Phone & Camera: in order for a great playlist to work, a phone is essential! Further, to be able to capture the awesome moments of the trip and get the funny/perfect photos a camera (or Polaroid camera if you're like me)

4. Sunglasses: obvious reason, also style option :-)

5. A GPS: another obvious reason - I have the world's worst sense of direction!!

When it comes to road-tripping, or just travelling in general, I always go for practicality over style. As evident with this Crumpler backpack
Actual road trip outfit
Leggings from Nike, top from Country Road and Converse
Outfit for my one day in Canberra - where it's still quite cold -
RM William boots, Country Road Jeans, Top Shop button up top, socks that were a birthday gift from Holly and my Cotton On Scarf
Tuesday's outfit for the flight home
RM William boots, socks from Roger David, skirt from Sportsgirl and top from H&M
Can't forget pj's
These are from Peter Alexander, and some extra underwear from Calvin Klein 
Of course, I can't forget my makeup. As this was quite a quick trip and I didn't have any plans for anything overly fancy that required a lot of makeup I packed the bare essentials. 
Ta-da!! My backpack shoved full of stuff and small handbag (that fits inside my backpack, for when I'm on the plane) ready to go!
