Three Outfits for Belle’s Weekend Trip

I’m off to Whitefish/Glacier National Park this weekend for my birthday.  It’s just a quick trip, so I won’t need a full suitcase (which will be a nice change).  Here’s what I’m taking.

Need a weekender bag?  This Mark & Graham bag is sublime.  It comes in a selection of chic neutrals and the company makes a wide range of coordinating leather goods.

For something less expensive, Sole Society makes great weekenders.  Their Candice bag has a relaxed shape, and their Cassidy bag is a classic duffle.  Everlane’s Weekender is also really well-reviewed.

The weather isn’t going to be nice enough to hike, but we’ll still be taking some friends to the Park.  Traveling in Northwestern Montana always involves a lot of driving, so I wanted to be comfortable.  I don’t usually wear leggings in public, but a layered look makes it a bit nicer.

I like Lululemon’s leggings for yoga, and Zella’s leggings for hanging out around the house.  If you want a less expensive option, I own a couple pair of Old Navy’s compression leggings, and for the price, they can’t be beat.

We’re headed out to dinner for my birthday, and I wanted something fun.  All of the off-the-shoulder dresses everyone is wearing just don’t look right on me, so that’s out as an outfit choice.  I’ve been avoiding J.Crew for a while now, but this skirt caught my eye.  I ordered it, I’m hoping the quality is good (but I know that’s probably be in vain.

If off-the-shoulder isn’t your look either, I like this coral, embroidered dress and this flowy Izia maxi dress.

I like field jackets because they eliminate the need for a purse.  I just grab a small, simple wallet and some lip balm, and call it a day.  Pair it with a simple dress and comfortable flats, and you’re done.

In need of a stripe dress?  This Tim Tim Dress from French Connection and this Lucy Love dress are great stripe dresses with 3/4 sleeves.  Adrianna Papell also has this great stripe dress for $55.  Plus-size?  ASOS Curve has a great relaxed t-shirt dress.
