✨Any places calling your name? 🗺️ 🧳 He ✨Any places calling your name? 🗺️ 🧳 Here’s what was waiting for me in Prague last summer: - Architecture that rivaled Paris - Music wafting out of neighborhood windows - A gentle reminder to never judge a place before you’ve been - Unbelievable vintage shopping 🛍️ - A gentle reminder that the destination AND the journey are always worth it and that stripes are always a good idea - New friends who made my heart smile - The reminder that I CAN do things on my own - The lesson that you don’t know what you don’t know (I assumed Prague would be all about beer & gothic architecture — I was SO wrong - Falling in love (again) with a new place is an incredible feeling & to treasure it And, probably most important of all, to live in the moment, because it’s all we have 💛 #kellygolightlytravels #kellygolightlyoutfits #praguestagram #tuckernucking #travelinstyle #stripesonstripes

ISO a divine design destination in which to have —or prevent! 🤞— a nervous breakdown? Fahhhbulous! Right this way, darrrrrling 👉🏼👇🏼 Meet PSYC — Palm Springs Yacht Club — the spa @parkerpalmsprings…where upon entering, my eyes sprung out of my head, then proceeded to cha-cha, cartwheel & backflip! 👀 💃🏻🤸 The iconic Slim Aarons photos! The blue-and-white striped cabanas and lounge chairs! Jonathan Adler’s cheeky-chic design twists were giving me life! 🤍💙 Not only were the spa services chakra-tingling (the floating sound bath & scalp massage…yes please, more please, thank you) but the sublime blue-and-white design was worth a visit alone. I’ll be back this September for Spa Month (have two words together ever sounded better?!), when all services will be 20% off (fair warning, my fellow procrastinators: spots fill up fast, so the sooner you book, the better). See you there?! Pssst… @visitgreaterps rounded up all the best deals at spas & resorts across the desert on SpaMonthGPS.com, should you wish to have a tryst with not one but several spas this September. No gatekeeping (or judging) here 😉😉 p.s. Now tell me…What’s your favorite design detail?
