Spring Fashion Guide: What I packed for New Orleans
This article is all about Spring Fashion!
From now until June 21st we get to celebrate the wonderful season of Spring. Weatherwise, it is sometimes a fickle season and packing for it can be challenging! Having this in mind, I wanted to share a little peek at what I packed for our recent
trip to New Orleans.
In this article, we’ve shared highlights of our trip, and we couldn't have asked for a more picturesque experience. New Orleans is exciting, and we absolutely loved seeing her return to her ‘pre-pandemic self’.
packing for spring
Spring travel requires you to consider the weather. Among Springs' charms are rain, wind, surprise chills, and surprise heat. You should always check the weather forecast when packing for upcoming trips. In New Orleans, the forecast was all over the place. I also realized that there was no way to predict what each day would bring. When packing for the spring, keep the changing weather forecasts in mind.
