The Escape Issue

"....Let's lose our bearings and set out for what we can't see over the horizon. Let's misplace Monday-morning lives and lose track of time. Let's plan a dozen vacations (whether we take them or not) and daydream about a ticket on the next jet to Destination Unknown. Let's disappear from Facebook, Twitter and texting- delicious life will take their places. And will we really miss them or be missed?" (Quote taken from skirt! The May 2011 Issue/The Escape Issue. )

I always knew I wanted to travel, but the various Samantha Brown series inspired me to create my own travel style.


Here are a few quotes from her presentation that sparked some type of resonance within:
