I am getting so pumped on my trip to London. I leave in less than 2 weeks and of course have begun putting together outfits that fit my traveling criteria for looking and feeling great. It is the Olympics after all so I am very partial to reds, whites, and blues, but I am even more partial to feeling chic and comfortable at the same time. I am fully aware how ridiculous it is to be this excited about my potential wardrobe for the three weeks I am abroad, but HELLO, its London!
Since we will be walking a few miles a day to the different events and all around town, I want to feel as cool and relaxed as possible since it will be a bit warm and muggy at times. I am partial to white and airy pieces like dresses since they are great for walking and being on the go paired with strappy sandals or flats. Chic, comfy, and clean.
Of course I am excited to see the games as well, especially since the U.S. has a great chance to not only medal but bring home the Gold. Not many people understand the game so I am hoping to commentate or be a correspondent of some sort since I will already be there and I know the game so well. I am in talks with a few organizations but will blog all my experiences as well as any opportunities for after parties, interviews, and access to some awesome events.
Games will be amazing, but lets face it, I cant wait for the adventure of being in the midst of a new culture from food to fashion and everything in between. Im already planning my wardrobe and refuse to look like a regular ole' tourist. Anyone can make traveling chic, pulled together, and comfortable! I cannot wait to get my wardrobe finalized, book our reservations for some amazing eateries (thank you Gwyneth!), and make this three weeks fun filled and packed with new opportunities and networking. After all, the whole world converges every Olympics and the more put together and chic you look, the better you feel. And the better you feel, the more confident and outgoing you are. And when you are confident and outgoing, you make friends. And when you make friends, you network and get opportunities. And when you get opportunities, you can use them to do good things. And when you use them to do good things, you have influence to change the world ...SOOO dress well people!
