Adventures are Better in Pairs
For the past few years one of my big goals has been to travel more; big trips, local trips, and everything in between. Slowly and slowly I'm convincing Andy to jump on the adventure train. He's either really starting to dig traveling or realized if he didn't attempt to start liking it, I would be away traveling all the time and he would never see me. I'm going to go with the former.
A few weeks ago we took our first trip of 2017 to Catalina Island and it was better than I could've ever imagined, in part because we've both never spent any real time on the Island. There's something magical about experiencing a new place together for the first time! As we were planning our trip I was pretty adamant about a refined packing list - Andy will legit pack 2x more than I do sometimes. His excuse? "My shoes are bigger!" Anywho, we partnered with Hush Puppies on this trip to share the launch of their new spring line that is all about casual and carefree styles. They were the perfect shoes to get us through the weekend!
During our trip I also may or may not have made Andy do a little q+a with me (on top of the one we did for Boxfox)! I know, girlfriend of the year award over here. Scroll down to see our fun little banter!
{couples q+a}
Ash: Describe me in one word.
Andy: beautiful
Andy: Describe ME in one word!
Ash: but you're so many more words than just one
Andy: Are flip flops ever okay?
Ash: Yes, but NEVER in the workplace. I don't care how casual your office is... looking at you ANDY FISHER!
Ash: Favorite place to get takeout from?
Andy: How do you feel about going to sleep before double digits on the clock?
Ash: Strictly forbidden... LIVE a little!
Ash: What is your favorite outfit I wear?
Andy: casual in jeans and a tee with no makeup
{my outfit: lulus black shift dress // denim jacket // janessa leone hat // hush puppies abney chrissie sandals // ahlem sunnies}
{andy's outfit: globe chinos // polar island shirt - similar here and here // bold yahman slip-ons // ahlem sunnies}
If you follow me on IG stories or snapchat, you know Andy and I are pretty laid back. These are typical weekend outfits for us, especially since we live by the beach. The Abney Chrissie sandal and his bold yahman slip-ons are perfect casual styles for us coastal kids!
What are you guys doing for Valentine's day? If you still need a few ideas for tonight, check out my post from last week. I think we're probably staying and making dinner. Maybe I'll subject Andy to watching Serendipity or something!
