Blogger Spotting: D. Glasgow Skinner Talks Travel

Written by Bryce

We love travel advice from on of our most exciting blogger friends!

One of our fave fab bloggers, D. Glasgow Skinner, stopped by our office a couple weeks ago to chat about all the best and boldest in winter travel. She’s the editor of MyLifeonandofftheGuestList.com and a vibrant personality- so we’ll take all the advice we can get from her:

TLS: What is your favorite Winter escape or place to go during the cold winter months?

D: My favorite winter escape will be always be the Caribbean- even if its just for a weekend (any last minute deals are the best). After being in a cocoon of sweaters, coats, gloves, scarves, long johns, multiple socks and boots, your skin needs to breathe and warmth from heaters are just not beneficial.

TLS: What are your 5 must pack items when traveling?

D: When travelling during the winter months, I always pack the following:

  • A moisturizing stick like Palmer’s Cocoa Butter – you can literally moisturize every part of your body while remaining TSA compliant
  • Moisturizing Facial Cleansing cloths like Olay’s 2-in-1 Cleansing Cloths (I love to use it on my feet as well – read on to see why)
  • Travel size toothbrush and toothpaste – no explanation needed
  • Foldable Flip flops like FlexFlops – put those heavy winter boots in the overhead compartment,  cleanse your feet with the cleansing cloths and be comfy for the entire trip
  • A sleep mask – beauty sleep is always essential
