For years I had rolled my eyes when I heard people blogged, especially at a young age. I always thought of bloggers to be soccer moms or missionaries or over-opinionated people. Although, a few weeks ago it dawned on me. Through Hilary Duff’s famous words, “why not take a crazy chance?” here I am, Word Press. I am done being controlled by twitter and their 140 characters, oh please. I’ll show you 140 characters. Anyways here I have listed out reasons I have continually tried to tell myself as to why I should start a blog:

1. THE Jillian Mercer after initially laughing at the idea thought I was cool enough to make one. Yes, you heard me. Also, I promised her a shout out for the name “MarieachieBand.”

Toiletry Bag

Tip 2 of our packing series
What you need in your Toiletry Bag

You don’t want to pack everything, just everything you will need. Think of the basics (toothpaste, toothbrush, deoderant, etc) and then hair care (brush, headbands, ponytail holders, curling iron, etc) Imagine everyday of your trip and how much makeup you’ll need and if your hair has to be done. Is there anyone you want to impress or want to take fun pictures of you? Then bring nicer makeup and hair care. I hope your vacation goes smoothly with all these tips!

I used the same cardigan twice and used the scarf as a skirt as well.

Try this for your next vacation or just to thin out your wardrobe!
