well, it's that time of year and the music festival scene is kicking off this week in austin at sxsw. i sure wish i was packing up and jetting off to a weekend of live music and revelry. just for fun, i've put together a few items that i think would be perfect for the trip.

i haven't been to austin in ages, but i'm not worried about figuring out where to stay or go. my friends over at oliver guide have the inside scoop on all things austin- as well as many of my other bucket list destinations! be sure to check them out, you'll get a serious case of wanderlust.
