I adore vintage fashion, and I have a pretty vast collection. Some pieces I adore and incorporate into my wardrobe, and others I save for special occasions and theme nights. I decided it would be fun to break out a few of my favorites during a recent trip to Turks & Caicos. I was modeling for a resort that opens in December. Check it out here (and photos from our time modeling). If you love vintage fashion, get ready for some fun!

I love going on media trips because it opens up a whole new world both in locations and experiences. I grew up in Pennsylvania, and I had never, ever been to Gettysburg. What a shame! Of course, it’s notable for its battlefields and vast history, but I went to experience their new Adams County Pour Tour, which I will be featuring in an upcoming post.

Recently I was invited by Venone PR and Off the Beaten Path Weddings on a tour of Sonoma County‘s wine country with a group of amazing ladies. We all have a love for weddings and are connected to the wedding community in some way – writers, bloggers, magazine owners, content creators. It was so refreshing to spend time with women who crave details and love the wedding industry. I’ll be sharing more about that trip soon!

Before I get to the island fashion, I have a true, surreal story – at least for me. In June I randomly saw on Facebook that a resort was looking for models for a new property that was opening on a private island in Turks & Caicos. I submitted my husband and myself as their 30s-50s couple (to look like travelers with expendable income), and we were CHOSEN! We spent 3 days on an amazing, private island resort that hasn’t even seen its first guests yet. I’ll blog more about that later!
As a thank you (like the private island wasn’t fab enough!!), they gave us two days post-modeling at one of their main island resorts. Of course, I took along a lot of fun outfits to showcase from one of my favorite hometown stores, so here is what I wore while we were at Alexandra Resort on Providenciales in Turks & Caicos.

I love packing for travel! I tend to pick my best outfits and try to coordinate my looks while maximizing everything from jewelry to shoe combinations so that I don’t overpack. Recently I visited California, and I documented my time – and my looks – through the lens of jewelry options from Violet & Brooks jewelry. From tassels to pin sets, I had so much fun. All of the photos below are taken either with outstretched arms or my self-timer, so I’d love to hear any feedback. On to my looks!
Lovely outfits and a good read. I love vintage outfits and to be truly honest, it is the reason I watch vintage movies such as “Midnight in Paris” and “The Help.”
