Links I Love Week 15

I had a very full 10 days in Paris and now I am currently on my way to BVI (British Virgin Islands). This is my surprise birthday trip that I was keeping a secret. After two failed attempts due to COVID restrictions, we are finally on our way. I will be meeting my fiancĆ© who has the second bag I packed before leaving. (you can see what I packed here)Ā  It has warmer clothes for sunshine and the beach. In case you missed it, Paris was filled with a mixture of snow and lots of rain. There was never a dull moment.Ā 

I have lots to fill you in with Paris content once I return to Chicago next weekend. I’ll be with very limited wifi for the next week. I promise Henri is in great hands this week. I miss my best buddy but I know he is very happy where he is.Ā

The Art of Friendship: How to Survive Change

I ended up buying a few things at the pharmacie. It all had to go back in my carry-on so I didn’t go too crazy. This concealer was much cheaper at duty-free. Itā€™s the only one I use and I love it. Eye cream from AvĆØne because the one I had in a smaller container went bad. I am also trying this vitamin C cream from Caudalie. Since I am flying to a warmer climate, I could go with a lighter cream for spring.

The Gaspard sweater was the MVP of the trip to Paris. I came with two and left with three. It is a great wardrobe staple and so many of the girls on the trip bought one or two as well.
