I do say "clean-ish" clothing because although the organizer Phebe did transport our luggage, we were only allowed one carry-on sized suitcase, so I did a lot of outfit repeating and remixing! I did bring several handmade items: my rose quartz dress, my gingham archer, my Sewaholic leggings and top, and my new Seamly cardi which was perfect for travel! I took fewer outfit shots than I intended (read: none, oops) but I had the most fun accessorizing my rose quartz dress to look fresh every night: I wore it once as seen "as intended" with some statement earrings, once loose with the sash tied as a neck bow, and once more casually with a leather belt and wedges.
It was an amazing trip and a wonderful way to celebrate our first anniversary and my birthday and our wedding. We're already scheming to get back to the mountains on a similar trip--maybe this one??
Are you an outdoorsy type? Ever been on a backpacking trip? My longest trip ever is five nights, and I will admit I smelled much worse at the end of those trips--hot showers and beds along with your 10 mile days is the way to go!!

ps: the same organizer who plans this trip also has one in Alsace which I am saving my pennies for! doesn't it look amazing?

I grew up going to Estes Park/RMNP, we have a cabin there. Your pictures are lovely and making me homesick! Looks like you hit a lot of the good stuff. ;o) Congrats on your 1st anniversary and getting a lot of use out of your self-sewn clothing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photographs. I feel great wearing my me made items too. I think packing for a trip and seeing all the items I have made makes me feel good. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a fun trip! And the scenery is amazing! I'm very outdoorsy and would love to do a trip of this length, but I'm married to a distinctly NON-outdoorsy type and I've yet to persuade him to do a hike longer than a few hours! :D
