Honeymoon Packing: Vol. I

March 13th, 2009 @ 3:49 pm by Mrs. Lemonade

It’s a nasty day here in A-town. It’s cold, rainy, and all together totally un-spring-like. It’s on days like today that I’m completely uninspired to make any progress on wedding related projects. Instead, I’m daydreaming about lying on white sands, listening to the waves break, and sipping on a fruity cocktail while reveling in the Caribbean sun. Can you tell I can’t wait for our honeymoon?! Thus, I’ve already started mentally packing and working on a list of items I must procure before we set off for the islands.

Who do I trust to outfit me for such an important occasion? Come on now, do you even have to ask?! As always, I turn to my dear friend, Crew, to make sure I’m comfy and chic no matter where we are headed.

Typically when I pack for a long trip I decide on a color scheme of 2 or 3 colors accented by neutrals, to make purchase and packing decisions a bit easier. So far these lovelies have made the cut:

Honeymoon Packing: Vol. I :  wedding dress honeymoon Crew Be

Are you buying a few new pieces for your honeymoon? Where are you finding great honeymoon wear these days?

I love J. Crew. Great choices you selected.
No I try not to buy more clothes before I head off on a trip- But I do try to find one or two nice outfits so my pictures don’t have all the same/repeated outfits in it from other trips! ;o)
another place I like to shop at is anthropologie and Anne Taylor…

Love the pieces you’ve chosen so far.
I’m getting a lot from Victoria’s Secret…good prices, cute & light summer dresses, & a large selection of swimwear that you just can’t beat!
I’m in love with the yellow dress you’ve chosen from J Crew…I’m thinking of purchasing it in the teal!

Very cute! I almost got that exact same dress today. :)

I don’t know when you’re planning on ordering, but there’s a secret sale going on which, unfortunately, ends today. 20% off purchases of $175 or more with the code “secret.” Just a head’s up!

Love Jcrew so much!
That dress is great for day to night.
I hope to buy a few things for my mini-moon, but we are thinking of NYC in Oct. so sweaters and jackets may be more up my alley.

I bought a few clothing items for really cheap and 4 new bikinis (couldn’t pass a good sale).

We’re thinking about Europe for our honeymoon, which makes packing really really intimidating. Parisians are so chic that I have no clue how to pack so that won’t stand out as a totally homely American amongst the fashion elite! :)
