Born shoes


I wanted a really good pair of shoes for all of the walking I'll be doing on my trip, but they had to be cute as well. I have already been to Europe in the non-cute, overly functional phase (i.e. hiking boots to EVERY occasion) and I promised myself that style mishaps would't happen again. I found shoes just like this style for a great deal at DSW for about half the price. They had them in brown, too. The lining has breathable leather with little holes and good arch support. Feels like I'm wearing slippers. Good grippers on the soles.

Travel blanket/pillow



Liz got me this for my birthday/trip to Ireland and I can't wait to use it! It's a pillow and when you unzip it, a blanket awaits you inside. Plus, it's really fuzzy and soft, and you don't have to share it with other airplane travelers (ew). Patina always has great gifts; thanks Liz!
