Summer is the perfect time for a road trip... so for June, I decided to spend the entire month hitting the road for a brand new Summer Road Trip Series.
The idea is simple: let the destination be the inspiration. Every stop is an opportunity to dress up a character, tell a new style story, and hunt for the very best vintage and thrift stores along the way.
Final Stop: Oceanside, CA
The day started with breakfast burritos at Beach Break Cafe before diving into a full day of vintage treasure hunting.
First stop was Revival Eyewear, where I customized the coolest pair of retro sunglasses. Then it was on to Captain’s Helm, a curated vintage shop full of magic, where I found my dream antique slip dress (and, of course, a few other goodies I couldn’t leave behind).
Before heading home, I made one final stop at Veterans Thrift Store to see what hidden gems were waiting on the racks because no road trip is complete without one last thrift hunt.
Summer road trips, treasure hunts, and a closet that’s now overflowing all the finds!
