I am a proud proponent of weekend getaways. They give you something to look forward to all week, and scratch that travel itch without having to submit any time off work, and are the perfect opportunity to bond with your friends in a change of scenery. Recently it was my birthday and I planned the perfect weekend away in South Hampton. While usually I head to the Hamptons during peak season in the summer for a beach getaway but out east in the fall can be just as magical. We stayed in the most beautifully decorated quaint South Hampton home that had everything I could’ve wanted.
A lovely den-like seating arrangement on the back patio to sit and enjoy a glass of wine emerged in the fall foliage, huge ceilings, and a stunning large dining table where I hosted my birthday dinner party. The weekend went so well I ended up filling up the rest of my fall calendar with random weekends away, and not only that, but have complied the ultimate weekender packing list.
I included everything you’re going to need from eye masks incase the blinds at your Airbnb just don’t do it for you, a sweater dress that’s formal enough to wear to a dinner out yet cozy enough for a night in, the facial spray I don’t go anywhere without, and so many other buys I swear by.
