When in Paris...

 

I guess it wouldn't be Paris if I didn't wear a striped, nautical shirt.  Very cliché.  

Hard to shut down the Hall of Mirrors for a shoot.

Seville Day 1 f/ Abbot + Main

Next stop on the invasion of Spain was Seville and participation in running of the bulls (well kind of--see above picture).  I was warned by everyone that the heat was unbearable during the summer months.  However, the weather was delightful but maybe that was due to my summer ready Abbot + Main tee.  As seen on Aaron Paul and Zac Efron, Abbot + Main is your one-stop shop for anything summer.

Abbot + Main brings the distinctly laid-back spirit of the Los Angeles beach scene with elevated, delightfully soft-handed fabrications and thoughtful design elements.  They are the perfect t-shirt to keep me comfortable and cool while site-seeing in the Spanish heat.

Barcelona Day 2

Unlike any cathedral I've ever seen--La Sagra Familia is amazing.  Inspired by modernism and nature that only Gaudi could imagine.

Travel Essentials:

Mismo & Flips Audio

Two items that are a must on any getaway are my headphones and a good day-pack. 

Stranded on a long flight with nothing but libations and a three-year-old movie playing overhead is the absolute worst.  Bumping my favorite Coachella hits through clean, precise, and hi-def headphones helps me escape.  With Flips Audio, I no longer have to pack headphones and a portable speaker pod.  By simply flipping the ear pods outward, I now have powered speakers to share the music--going from #solo2social.

Then comes the problem of carrying all my daily items: wallet, camera, and phone to name a few.  It's a tough balance between form and function.  A backpack is functional but old-school.  A tote is stylish but not exactly functional for a day of sight-seeing.  Mismo's leather and canvas fold-over backpack is the right proportion to carry all my items and does it in style.
