A Packing Guide for Summer Travel
Whether you are headed to a private villa in Ibiza, or off on on a boat in the Sea of Cortez (like me) here are some key pieces to make the sailing smooth.
A friend of mine gave out these AERIN Batik beauty bags as goodie bags at her wedding – they fit everything you need.

No point in taking your diamonds, but grab a little something in the summer vacation spirit like a necklace by Dezso.
