2015 has been a year of so many incredible events and magical moments, but the one thing missing was my annual trip to California. Growing up in Vancouver we’d road trip to LA or San Francisco almost every winter, but when I moved to Toronto that drive became a lot less doable. I’ve still managed to make it out almost yearly, but 2015 was just too busy and I never quite found the time.
Luckily, team RAOP is taking off February 1st to make up for the gap!
Thanks to the folks over at Expedia.ca, Johanna and I just booked a week-long vacay to the land of palm trees and pastels. Jo has never been to California, so of course we’ll be exploring all of my favourite places (like the Madonna Inn and Disneyland!) I used Expedia to book us flights, a snazzy convertible, and 3 different colourful hotels, and now all that’s left to do is daydream and plan our escape!
These next two months are sure to feel *very* long, so I’m sharing some of my very favourite Cali-based accounts in the meantime. I honestly can’t wait to be basking in the sun with all of these babes in 2016!
Bon Puf // It doesn’t get much sweeter than this amazing cotton candy dream girl!
Jen Gotch + Ban.do // These ladies really define the word fun.
Studio Mucci // A magical tassel factory in downtown LA? Yes Please!
Designlovefest // Featuring amazing LA spots, products, and oh so much colour goodness.
Christina Winkelmann // Also part of the Ban.do squad (aka. Girl Gang), but her recent epic wedding adventures have earned her a separate mention on my list because I couldn’t stop swooning every time I checked her account!
Yummertime // The cutest pastel couple in the entire world. Period.
