The Ultimate 8-Way Travel Cardigan

I love when I get an opportunity to share my favorite products and experiences with my readers, so I’m thrilled to be giving away my favorite travel cardigan by enCircled! Their Chrysalis Cardi is by far the best travel cardigan I’ve found, and makes a GREAT addition to any inflight outfit!

I would just like to say, I bought from the Encircled company (I asked for them as a gift more specifically). I was so excited to get my hands on some stylish travel gear. I was quickly disappointed. I bought a pair of the reversible leggings and one of their shirts. After just one use, the $98 pair of leggings had holes all along the stitching. The company refused to refund me or replace them and only offered store credit, despite these being a birthday gift, and insisted that I pay to send the leggings back as well. I am so disappointed about my now ripped leggings in addition to the customer service I received.
So beware the quality and the customer service if you decide to buy from this company.

Hi Devyn,

As you are well aware, you have posted this same comment on 5+ travel blog reviews (as of tonight).

We responded to your customer service inquiry via email this evening, and processed a FULL refund to original purchaser of the leggings AND let you keep the leggings, despite the fact that the leggings were 50% off ($50 purchase price), final sale/discontinued/no returns and purchased over 3 months ago.

Our customers are extremely important to us, as is our quality, and we do our best to work with customers for a peaceful resolution.

We have worked incredibly hard for our reputation online, and build a brand based on repeat customers, and using the finest ethically-sourced and sustainable materials. However, like any product, there is always the one-off chance of a missed stitch or defective fabric. It is rare, but it does occur.

I quit my job in November to pursue my dream of building an ethically made, versatile travel clothing business. I work every day, every weekend, and go above and beyond for our customers. At the end of the day, myself, and my team realize that not every customer is satisfiable.

We have done our best to resolve this issue and ask that you please stop posting negative and inaccurate comments on blog posts without reason.

If you have further questions about the issue, I ask that you contact us via email by clicking on my name above.

Best,
Kristi
Founder, Encircled

I had the same thing happen with my leggings from Encircled! While I’m glad it wasn’t just me, I’m sorry that you had it happen too.

Tiny Ollie vs Toddler Ollie visiting the African penguins in Cape Town 🥹🐧
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
It’s #worldpenguinday so had to share some very special moments from Boulders Beach!

Oliver had just started crawling on his first visit last year and he was blowing kisses and pretending to be a penguin on our latest visit this year. Almost exactly one year apart.

The photo of him 🧀’n with the penguin is framed at home — it is too stinking cute!

Charging up for my next adventure with the NEW @anker_official MagGo! 🌟

What’s the one product I *always* take when I travel? A power bank!

Like most people, when I travel, I’m out the entire day exploring without the ability to charge my phone.

And I use my phone a LOT for battery-draining functions like maps, transportation, and, of course, taking photos and videos.

The #AnkerMagGo can fully charge most iPhone models at 2x the speed of other 7.5W power banks.

I love the magnetic wireless charging and the built-in folding kickstand for an upright comfortable viewing angle.

No more tangled cords, just sleek, convenient charging on the go!

Focusing on ways to be more environmentally conscious both at home and while traveling is incredibly important to me — so that the generations to come can keep exploring this beautiful world.

I know that sometimes it seems like there are “too many” things to do in order to be “more green” or focus on sustainability...and it can be very overwhelming.

Where do you begin? Are you doing enough? Can you really make a difference?

The truth is that YES, you can make a difference.

Even the smallest things like eliminating or limiting your use of plastic or cutting back your meat consumption make a big difference.

Each single-use plastic item you don’t use and throw away is one less piece of plastic added to landfills or the ocean. Small choices every day add up to big changes!

While you don’t have to create a massive composting pile in your backyard (unless you want to)—there are other things you can do to reduce your environmental impact and be environmentally conscious at home.

Most importantly, vote to put people in power that have a strong stance on protecting the planet and climate policy. Collectively, we can have the greatest impact by holding the people at the top accountable.

I’m sharing a few resources today in my stories like the best reef-safe sunscreens, and how to reduce your environmental impact while traveling.

Once you begin to implement little changes, they become habitual, and soon enough you’re part of the change.

Let’s do it for Mother Earth!

Two years ago when I was a “mummy” in Egypt 🐪
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
It’s kinda wild getting “this day X years ago” reminders now that I’m a mama. So much changes so quickly, it often feels like time is slipping away from me.

I’m not sure if anyone else feels this way, but I went from moving from Cape Town, to a global pandemic, to becoming a mama in the course of 2 years.

And, two years later, I definitely have imposter syndrome feeling like everything pre-2020 was a “past life.” It was my entire personality, so I’ve been going through a huge metamorphosis of mindset and identity over these past few years.

I’m not actually sure where I’m going with this, but this memory brought a lot of joy and I haven’t felt much like posting lately.

Life is filled with more joy than I’ve probably ever felt—but over the simpler things in life. And a lot of it is centered around being a mom. And sometimes it feels weird to share those every day moments of this “new” life I’ve been living since 2020.

Anyways, felt like ripping the bandaid by sharing something special to me with a little update since I’ve taken a pretty big break from social media.

❤️
