The Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington DC is jam-packed with everything you could possibly imagine when it comes to air and space. We spent four hours exploring the exhibits and learning new tidbits about both and air travel and space exploration. It was so amazing!

If you haven’t been to the Air and Space museum in Washington DC, I highly recommend adding it to your itinerary next time you visit the capitol. They have in-depth exhibits about the history of air travel including original artifacts from the Wright Brothers.

It was also amazing to see female pioneers in air travel and they impacted the industry. It’s always fun to see powerful women, especially from before women had widespread rights. They were true trail blazers!

After visiting the museum, we walked over to Old Ebbitt Grill for dinner. It is a historical restaurant in the heart of Washington DC. We even saw a secret service man checking the area! That was fun! I wonder who was there?

I enjoyed the crab cake and fries while my daughter enjoyed pasta bolognese. Both dishes were really yummy; I definitely want to go back!

What I wore to visit the Air and Space Museum:

Be sure to wear comfortable shoes for visiting the museum and also walking around. This vacation requires a lot of walking!

Thanks for stopping by!

Spring is in full swing! While neutral hues and classic items are hotter than hot, pops of color are quickly gaining momentum.

When it comes to spring nail polish, it’s selling like hot cakes! Hermes, Chanel, and Dior are already sold out, so I linked alternatives above which are right on trend and perfect for spring. Don’t worry, Dior’s summer nail polish collection is coming in April, and I will keep you posted when it arrives! There are two colors and they are pretty! Love!

As we move into the spring season, pearl jewelry, the anonymous handbag, woven leather, and nostalgia for the 1990s and early 2000s continue to influence social media and how we dress. So, don’t forget to pull out those old IT bags and wear them! The sidewalk is your runway, and the early 2000s paparazzi is following you. Show off your Balenciaga Le City bag, Fendy Spy, Chloe Marcie, Chloe Paraty, Fendi Baguette, and more!

Also, what are we thinking about Rockstuds returning? It will be interesting to see if everyone pulls them back out when “The Devil Wears Prada 2” premieres in May. Dust yours off, you might want to rock them soon!

Thanks for stopping by, and stay tuned for more spring coverage!

Spy Museum

Bond, James Bond. Love it! I mean, who doesn’t love a James Bond movie or moment? I know I do! When we visited the Spy Museum in Washington DC, this fabulous car from James Bond was right there in the lobby! Amazing!

Of course, the Spy Museum is more about real spies than James Bond, but it was fun seeing a glimpse of references to our favorite fictitious spy.

The Spy Museum is a must-see when visiting Washington DC. There are exhibits dating back hundreds of years, and it is amazing to see how spying has been done throughout history. In fact, it helped us build America. Love!

The museum consists of multiple floors jam-packed with spy gadgets and history lessons. It is really fun to see this part of world history. In addition to the regular exhibits, there is also one floor with a special exhibit. I recommend adding it on when visiting the Spy Museum.

We spent around three hours at the Spy Museum, so plan to wear comfortable shoes and clothing so you can fully enjoy the experience. You can even go on a spy mission while visiting! Fun!
