    Yassss, to leggings! I like to layer stuff with them too as it’s good for all weathers, plus I like to keep myself covered to avoid the sun!

      Leggings are ALWAYS a god option and yes—too much sun can become an issue!

  2. Kiki, so glad to see your post in my email! Your baby boy is adorable and has grown so much. I am from the states, in London now, and flying to Paris next. What I want to say is thank you so much for including cute clothes and different outfits in your “what to pack for summer” post. I am so tired of reading, time after time, these kind of post from others and all they show is BLACK and only a few core pieces that you can mix and match. That is so not me—like you I want to wear cute, happy colors for summer and bring an assortment of dresses and skirts and shorts, etc….not some kind of stream lined boring pared-down selections. To me Paris warrants a beautiful dress or two in pastel colors that stand alone, not part of a practical core wardrobe………….Have fun on your travels!! And thanks for always looking so pretty and appropriate for where ever you land!!

    • Aw what a sweet comment! Thank you Cate!

Being a mama in today’s digital world is... stressful. Even though my little one, Oliver, is still a toddler, I already think about how I’ll navigate social media and screen time as he grows up. It’s such a different world than when we were kids, so having the right tools and info is so important!

That’s why I attended the META Screen Smart event. I wanted to learn everything about how we can not only build healthy screen habits for our kids and teens but also what tools META provides us parents—and let’s just say, there are a ton!

Some of these include:

Parental controls that let you set screen time limits
Content filters
Tech-free scheduled times
Monitor what your kids are seeing

This was such a fun event with META panelists, professional speakers, and everyday parents just trying to figure out how to navigate this ever-changing tech world.

Thank you, @instagram, for hosting me and sharing so much valuable insight 💡

Who else swears by packing cubes? 👋
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
@veken_api packing cubes have completely changed the way I travel! ✨ No more digging through a messy suitcase to find what I need—everything stays organized, compact, and easy to access.

Whether it’s rolling vs. folding, color-coding, or using different sizes for different categories, these little cubes make packing (and unpacking!) a breeze.

As Fergie says, “We flyin’ first class!” ✈️ 🎶

When I say @emirates First Class experience is incredible, I mean INCREDIBLE. It exceeded my expectations and then some.

Want to sip bottomless glasses of Dom Perignon, nibble on caviar AND take a shower at 40,000 ft? Look no further.

The best part? I managed to upgrade my Business Class flight to First Class for FREE by using credit card points!

Yep, you read that right! It didn’t cost me a penny to upgrade to one of the best First Class flights on the market.
