As of 8am tomorrow morning, J & I will be on a plane headed somewhere sunny for the next week! (Check out @michelle.orsi on Snapchat or @michelle_orsi on Instagram to find out where we are going!) I am so excited to escape the hustle and bustle of real life and spend some time in a tropical paradise. Don't worry, I have some great content + some fun guest posts planned for you all! Today, let's start with all of the essential items that I can't fly without.

 1. cozy socks - anything I can do to make my plane ride more comfortable, I do, including wearing a cozy sweater on the plane and slipping on a pair of cozy socks while we are in the air. Bonus points when they have a cute print like this leopard pair.
2. sunglasses - Plane rides usually mean make up free faces, but early morning flights mean tired eyes, so sunglasses always come in handy in the airport.
3. sleeping mask
4. portable charger - I always bring a charger with me. My worst nightmare is ending up stuck somewhere with a dead phone, so I love having a portable charger with me. This floral one is SO cute! 
5. earbuds
6. evian facial spray - the air on the planes get so dry, this evian spray is an easy item to toss into your bag to keep your face and skin feeling fresh & moisturized. 
7. passport holder
8. luggage tags - I love this bright pink one so I can easily spot my bag among the thousands of other black suitcases.

 Also - don't forget - reading material! Magazines & some good books are must haves for me on the plane ride and when we arrive. A few of the best books that I've read lately include: anything by Liane Moriarty (Big Little Lies), The Luckiest Girl Alive, The Girl on the Train, Maybe in Another Life & The Good Girl. 

 Do you have any book recommendations?? Send them to me today so I can download them for our trip!
