Such Great Heights 

This is somewhere between Little Rock and Cincinnati

I know flying is an anxiety-ridden task for most people.  I even have close friends that would rather drive 1,000 miles each way than get on a plane!  So, maybe I'm just strange for saying this, but I love traveling by plane.  And this is not a new obsession, because I've been a frequent flyer with skymiles ever since I can remember, but it's the breathtaking (literally) view that you can only get when you're flying so high that you look down upon the clouds. 

Purple haze filled the atmosphere yesterday

On my first flight yesterday, I hit the jackpot by being able to sit over the wings and watch the sunset just as we were clearing the clouds.  It's incredible to think that there was so much cloud cover that separated the passengers from everyone on land.  I loved that moment when all of a sudden you break through the "turbulence" to look down upon it and see it in a whole new way.  It doesn't look turbulent at all!  From above it's a fluffy, soft blanket that moves in quiet, slight waves.  With the appearance of the blinding sunset, the blanket has beautiful highlights and shadows and the sleek wing of the aircraft reflects what's becoming a softer light as the sun sinks lower below the clouds.

Now, that's a view you definitely can't get on a road trip.

My carry-on bag always includes a light & funny book, the latest issue of Vogue and my laptop.  However, these are my air travel essentials: 

Sunglasses that block out sunlight for a nice inflight snooze

A chunky cardigan, usually w/ a fun print

Moisturizing hand lotion and lip balm

Sometimes, you just go through a color phase.  Blue photos and items were really catching my eye this week, so that explains the set above.  It's a kind of inspiration board.  For what, I'm not sure of yet.  I just know that I chose certain images and shades for a reason and they end up on my polyvore boards (I was really loving the robins egg blue and the navy blue here).  If you haven't checked out my Polyvore account, be sure to do so.  You can find the link by either clicking on the board above or going to the top of this page and click over from home to the Follow Me section. You should see a logo and you can check out my full account from there.  :)

By the way, check out misskl.com for more great finds like this super cute and cozy Free People beanie!  The site has items from some of my favorite designers and brands like House of Harlow 1960, Betsey Johnson, Alexander Wang, and so many more!  There's even a vintage section (swoon)!  Be careful though - you can window shop for days on the site!
