My kind of souvenirs

When I travel I like to buy things I will actually use again, not some crazy knick knack with the location emblazoned across it.  I like to shop and hunt and find things I can't get where I live.  So I like to shop stores we don't have and try local hang outs and restaurants etc.

One day while in DC, I met up with a DYT friend from Maryland to go to lunch and do a little shopping. 


We had a fabulous time and found this cute skirt and bracelet at a consignment shop in Old Town Arlington in Virginia.




I also found this beautiful berry colored pashminas and this scarf on my travels also.



Now when I wear that cute pink skirt I will remember the shopping trip with my DYT friend from Maryland.   Or when it gets cold and I throw on my pashmina I will remember my wonderful, fun filled trip to Washington DC.  Those are the kind of souvenirs and memories I like to remember my travels by.
