The other day I had a bit of a wake up call. No not the kind like “what are you doing with your life”, the kind like “holy s**t, it’s 9am and you should be walking into work instead of waking up right now”. Yeah that kind of moment.
It was definitely not one of my better moments that’s for sure, but more of a “you need a vacation” moment. I think being almost 40 minutes late to work the other day was my body telling me it’s time to get away and turn off for a little.
As mentioned Monday I’m heading off to Charleston this weekend and man this could not have come at a better time. All I need is the beach, a good book and maybe a cocktail..or three.
In prep of this mini vacay I did a little shopping this past weekend and finally decided to break out the white jeans. Not sure if it’s allowed in Chicago yet, but in Charleston they’re in the upper 70s so I’d say that’s acceptable. I paired them with this light weight sweater in case it gets a little cool at night and this black floppy hat I had been eyeing at H&M.
Next step Charleston. Follow along on instagram @meganpatty_ for all my trip adventures.

Also, how great is this necklace? I got it in this month’s RocksBox and am kind of obsessed. In case you haven’t heard of RocksBox, I’ll give you a little break down. Basically you pay $20 a month and get three pieces of jewelry to wear. You can wear these as long as you like or return them right away for three new pieces. If you get one you like enough to keep you can hang on to it and when you return the others they will charge you a discounted price for the once you keep. It’s pretty great and what’s even better is they gave me a special discount code to offer to all my reader so you can get one month FREE. Use my promo code (meganannpattersonxoxo) when checking out and receive three pieces for free!
