I am so, so excited because next Tuesday my sister, her husband, Tyrion and I are flying home to Cape Cod. As a sidenote, JetBlue’s decision to fly direct to Hyannis during the summer is kind of the best thing ever. In the past, we’ve had to brave a seven (sometimes longer!) hour drive up there with all the rush hour (here) + bridge (there) traffic. Not this time! We’re going for a whole week and I couldn’t be happier about it. I’ve been feeling the need to hit “reset” lately, and a week away at home in the salty air will be just the thing.
My parents’ house is about a mile away from the beach so I’m packing a suitcase full of bikinis, cozy tees, pretty dresses (this is a new fave) and (duh) lots and lots of stripes. And lots and lots of books. What I’m not packing? (most) makeup, and my blowdryer. It’s my happy place. The second we cross the bridge I instantly feel lighter. I can’t wait.

Have a great 4th of July weekend back home!

I call my parent’s beachhouse “my happy place” as well. Isn’t it amazing how rejuvenating it is? Enjoy!! xx

Sounds amazing! There’s nothing like a little reset trip. I have one coming up in August, and I truly cannot wait.
ENJOY!!! I’m off to family house in Falmouth week of the 12th…. it truly is a happy, healing place!!! The second you get over that bridge!!! AAHHhhhhhh!!!! xo
So many cute things on this list. I like the purse, but too pricey for me. I really like a small, cross-body purse. Your trip sounds fun. I’ve always wanted to live in that part of the country. I’d be at the beach all the time.
I’m ditching all things makeup and hair related for the lake this weekend! F R E E D O M 😉
Love this simple white dress, and of course, the red Gucci!

Heart Shaped 58mm Sunglasses, and the Phipps leather sandals.
Enjoy your time at home, Grace 🙂

You and I are on the same wavelength. I couldn’t swing the JFK to HYA flight this time around, but we are headed to Centerville late tomorrow via rental car and my packing list is nearly identical! I would add only one important item: a jacket! People forget how chilly it can get at night.
GOOD CALL! enjoy centerville!!! xo
Have a great trip! I definitely used this as guidance for my own Cape Cod suitcase today as I’m heading up for an extended long weekend to Wellfleet until Tuesday.
Love your style and love your blog!!!!
My family has a house in Brewster and I am friends with wonderful Jenny T!!!! 🙂
