Charleston: What I Wore + Shopped For

January 8, 2021

Preston and I have never been (and probably never will be) huge beach people. Or semi-beach people at all. It’s a little bit scary to admit, but neither of us like the beach or tropical environments at all really. We will always, always pick somewhere else-even the arctic circle over going to the beach. Will we still go to the beach? Yes, vacations in any form are such a blessing. Will we enjoy ourselves in a city surrounding a beach? Probably! But, it’s just never the type of vacation we set out for. Read more

Five Tips to Make Unpacking Easier

January 4, 2021

I know a lot of us struggle with unpacking straight after coming home from a trip- I feel I’ve seen a thousand people post pictures of their half unpacked, half strewn across the room suitcase jumbles. One thing I pride myself on is my ability to come home and immediately get my house straightened up after a trip. Not to brag, but last week I cleaned out my closet, unpacked all our clothes and gifts from Christmas, washed and changed our sheets and dirty clothes, took down all our Christmas decorations and more just in a few hours! Obviously I don’t have or travel with kids/a lot of people, but I am proud of my ability to unpack and clean up after a two person trip. Read more

What to Expect at Platform 9 3/4

December 2, 2020

Planning a trip to London soon? Are you a big Harry Potter fan? If you answered ‘yes’ to both those questions, then you’re probably planning to stop by Platform 9 3/4 during your time in the center of the Harry Potter universe. Read more

My Italy Travel Journal

November 13, 2020

When I was about to leave for my study abroad trip in 2018, one of the things I was most excited about was keeping a travel journal. I don’t journal any other times, but Katy Bellotte really inspired me with her travel journal from studying abroad (highly recommend watching the video!!)Read more

My Tennessee Mountain Vacation

October 5, 2020

I shared a lot of our little mini-vacation over on my Instagram stories (saved to my ‘fall fun’ highlight by the way!), but I also wanted it to have its own little place on the blog as well. We had so much fun and already can see many weekend trips like it in our future. It’s really funny because before we got married my love language was 100% gifts. Since living with a significant other, having a change in budgetary priorities, etc., I am totally on the quality time bandwagon! This lines up perfectly with our mutual love of travel and budgetary priority of always saving for the next trip. Read more

My Travel Bucket List

September 30, 2020

As we’ve been basically weekend trip or vacation free for the past six months, I have noticed myself getting antsy to start traveling again numerous times. I’ve written a post about how to evoke the mindset of travel during this time and followed some of my own advice, but I am finding it increasingly hard to shake the feeling of being overwhelmed at just how much of the world is out there to see and how little time and resources it feels like we have now to accomplish all we want to do and see in life.

Scott’s Cheap Flights

July 19, 2020

When Preston and I were searching for dreamy, but budget-conscious, honeymoon plans, several people recommended Scott’s Cheap Flights. I quickly made an account, but I honestly didn’t understand what the magic was for a little bit. I wanted to write a post about it in case you are a travel fan but have to stay on a budget like I do! I know plane travel (and travel in general) isn’t feasible right now, but like I mentioned in my how to evoke travel in the midst of a global pandemic post, sometimes you just need to plan a trip. Most airports are being flexible about COVID related Read more

How to vacation in the midst of a global pandemic

June 23, 2020

I get bitten by the travel bug quite often. Fortunately for me, I married someone who also craves traveling, and we are dreaming of, planning and saving for our next trip more often than not. However, because of the current situation surrounding COVID-19, traveling to almost any destination poses a risk. In the meantime, I am currently researching and planning an out of country trip we hope to take next year (or the next!) Today I thought I would share a few ways I have gotten my itch to travel to calm down a little! TheseRead more

U.K. Honeymoon Part 2

January 23, 2020

I now know that Classically Grace readers really enjoy travel content, because so many people visited my site after I posted the first honeymoon recap, my blog crashed! Preston (my husband and tech guy) usually gets a notification when the blog is overloaded, and he can optimize it, but so many people got on this time it just quit! So I apologize if you were trying to read the blog yesterday morning and afternoon, but it should be up and running again. In the next few months, he may try moving it to a different host, but in the mean time, here we are! Read more

London Honeymoon Part 1: Tips, Food and Sites

January 19, 2020

Now that the wedding and honeymoon are officially over and married life is just starting, I feel like I can finally sit down and recap it all. The wedding was the best day of my entire life, and I don’t think I will ever forget one moment of it. Following our wedding, our London honeymoon was literally incredible.
