Today I am celebrating Christmas on its Eve as is  customary here in Germany. It really does not seem strange at all to be spending Christmas away from my parents as sister as I feel so at home here! I had to do a little more shopping today, but not too much. While in Bremen, the girls took me to Primark where I got a few things they don't have in the States, aaaannnd I got my first Zara purchase for the wedding I have to attend when I get back. It is a dress, just below the knee, vneck, and with long sleeves. The material is quite versatile so I do not have to worry about not being able to wear it again! I was on the hunt for a military structured coat, but have not been able to find one in my price range even though there are a ton of them over here. Leather pants, they have become so chic when worn right. Still want some lace up wedges. I think they are so dope. Anyway time to go spend time with the family. What do you all wish for Christmas?

The Tomgirl Series | America to Germany

The Tomgirl Series | America to Germany





Less than two weeks remain before I am headed to Germany! I can hardly contain myself. Last night I bought my luggage, a set from, yes, American Tourister. I remember loving this brand when I was a kid. The lock tabs were my favorite obsession. Baby blue. I started a collection of old Samsonite AT suitcases and so far have 3, but these would not be practical for trips through foreign airports, so I thought I get a modern one with wheels. They usually run about $200 or more but I got them on sale for $64! They definitely don't have the classic look, but reading American Tourister in its original branding is still nice to see. My one carry on that is vintage looks like the one in the picture except it is burgundy and I use it as a purse mostly. Anyway, I have most of these items (except for those shoes which I want badly!!), and I don't think you have to sacrifice travel style in order to be comfortable. It really is about keeping it simple and cohesive.
