Stylecraft Travel Set
For ladies with long hair, traveling can require bringing along a whole combination of tools for managing your locks on the go. I have naturally wavy hair and anywhere with humidity becomes a whole new adventure. If the hotel we’ve visiting has a hair dryer, chances are it won’t even put a dent on getting my hair completely dry, making for a frizz fest that gets more intense the longer the trip.
When I discovered The Traveler set from Stylecraft I knew it was exactly the solution I’d been waiting for. Designed to fit compactly in lugguage the PeeWee 1200 is a miracle worker. A full 1000 watt motor provides salon quality drying and folds away compactly after getting ready.
As the moisture of the day starts to set in my hair, the Shmedium straightener is the perfect solution for defrizzing before heading out for dinner. Floating plates are longer than those found on a full size straightener and the 410 degree heat straightens things out in no time flat [pun intended].

Dune Jewelry
When there’s snow on the ground, who doesn’t want to reminisce about their last trip to the beach. Living in a land locked state the ocean has special meaning and even as an adult it’s hard to not pick out my favorite shells from the sand as a souvenir.
Dune Jewelry takes the concept of personalized travel gifts a step further, by cataloging sand from beaches all over the world, and encapsulating them in jewelry you can enjoy long after the sunscreen has worn off. With over 4,000 beaches and natural elements in their Sandbank it’s easy to create a personalized memory that your gift recipient will love.
For this pendant I chose to commemorate a trip we took to Maui in 2018. The trip was planned by Drew’s parents, specifically at the best time of year to experience the migrating humpback whales. Throughout our time there you could see the whales breaching on the waves from the beach.
The Forever Fins design, filled with crushed shells from Kaanapali Beach completely captured my favorite memories of that trip!
