Road-trip Essentials

I am extremely excited because Roger and I will be having a mini road trip to Marfa, Tx! We tried to schedule a weekend this fall and they were all booked so we thought we'd try next year. BUT we heard that Texas is potentially getting rid of some of the major art works there so we planned the soonest date we could! We managed to find one Sunday that was available so we are making it a two day trip - missing one day of school...but we deserve it :)  
On that note! Here are a few essentials for any road trip you might find yourself on:
1. backpack: Easy, you need a place to store your stuff! A backpack is easy to carry around & nice on your shoulders. 
2. camera: This mini Fijifilm polaroid camera is just too cute. Comes in plenty of colors and is super perfect for an indie trip!
3. sunnies: We all obviously need some amazing sun glasses to keep our pretty eyes fresh! The sun blazing through the windshield needs to be blocked!
4. lip balm: This is a big one for me... my lips are always getting chapped especially on road trips. Burt's Bees is always a good option, and go for the colored ones to keep your lips beautiful with easy maitnence!   
5. good read: I always convince myself that I will read a book on a road trip but the truth is I get car sick and distracted way too easily. Yet I convince myself every time (which is why it is on this list)! 
6. iPhone: OBV.
7. headphones: These might be most important... music is the best way to past time and keep yourself happy! Don't forget to create the best road trip playlist, too!
8. flats: Some adorable flats with no straps would be best. That way you can take them off and on easy while in and out of the car. (Yes, that might be a little strange to think about but it is so much more comfortable sometimes!) 
9. sweater: Finally, a comfy sweater! Easier than carrying around a big blanket and a lot more sassy! 
These are all pretty much my every day essentials, too, what are yours? :)
