Vacation Outfits!

I don't know about you but I always feel like I dress better on vacation! Every outfit comes together just right, and I always feel confident and stylish. What's up with that? After carefully analyzing this Earth-shattering revelation, I realized that it's all about the planning. Getting dressed everyday is a slapdash, throw-it-on-in-a-hurry deal, while vacation dressing is completely organized and pre-thought out.
