Starting the Honeymoon Packing List

As I am anxiously awaiting those lazy honeymoon days exploring Costa Rica; I am dreaming up things that I would like to add to my packing list...

I will take this dress from Lucy; the fabric is bamboo & spandex- perfect for an eco-adventure honeymoon.

This raffia hat from Lucy to protect while lounging poolside or at the beach...

These cute little poplin 'Corner Store Crops' to wear while strolling around town from Anthropologie...

This sunny little bikini from Anthropologie would match my sunny mood...

I can hardly wait to be a 'honeymooner!'

**Update** I have to have this palette from Nars that I saw on Wedded Bits this morning to add to my honeymoon packing list. What a pretty set of colors all in one space saving compact. I love NARS Orgasm blush so how ideal to have all the other complimenting shades for an easy, low maintence, flirty look... for Costa Rica or even just every day here in Chicago.

hi, i love your blog and check it from time to time (what will you blog about after you tie the knot?) ... i once left a message once before b/c i was getting married at a new leaf, too (wedding was back in march...and yes, i still read wedding blogs)).

just thought i'd blurt out that when i went to costa rica, i tried to put makeup on once, and that was the last time. mascara only. for two weeks. i obviously don't know where you will be staying, but we ventured to four towns and the weather was warm and humid the whole time (which is always the perfect time for a dip in the ocean, pool or natural spring!!). i definitely overpacked and if i went back would take about half my bag next time. but your outfits are adorable. and already almost all you'll need!

hi devon! i remember your comments! if you are open to sharing photos of your wedding at ANL feel free to email me :)

excellent point about the makeup in CR! my FI and I are on a mission to not overpack for this trip- i tend to be an overpacker!
