Gift Guide for Her

December 6, 2021

Let’s face it. The past two years people have been going nowhere. But as a former frequent traveler, I’ve been itching to get back on the road and see the world and more importantly, show it to Arielle. And though we will be extremely careful, I feel like if we all continue to play it safe, in the next couple of years travel is going to take back off (excuse the pun). So I’m focusing my gift guides on items for that frequent traveler in your life. Here is the Fashionably Kate & Co. Gift Guide for Her.

Slip Silk Beauty Sleep Travel Set 

I discovered silk pillowcases a few years ago and they have been a game changer for my hair. Not only does my blow out last longer, my hair is shinier and I have noticed less breakage. The silk is also gentler on my skin. This Slip Silk Beauty Travel Set complete with pillowcase and matching eye mask is perfect for those that require their beauty sleep on the go.

Bon Voyage Passport Holder

Everyone should have a passport holder to keep their identification, tickets and other travel papers organized. You might as well have one that reflects your passion for adventure and that is exactly what this bifold from Rifle Paper Co. does.

Open Story Commuter Backpack

This sleek backpack from Target was featured in Travel & Leisure and is only $50. The Open Story Commuter Backpack is available in three colors (my favorite is the taupe) and features a top handle and a side pouch that is perfect for a water bottle.

Wild Fable Square Backpack

Known as the “Target Travel Backpack”, this is another reasonable find ($20) featured in Travel & Leisure. The Wild Fable Square Backpack has often been called the Mary Poppins Bag of backpacks because of how much it holds. It has a front section and top handles and comes in four colors. 

Supergoop! (Re)setting 100% Mineral Powder SPF 35

While this may seem like something you would only bring on a warm weather vacation, that is far from the case. You should be wearing sunscreen every day of the year and this mineral powder with SPF 35 from Supergoop! makes it easy to apply and reapply without having to rub it in or worry about it seeping out into your bag.

Zella ​​Live In High Waist Leggings

These soft, comfortable leggings are the perfect travel pants. They’re comfortable but chic and go with an array of footwear choices like flip flops, sneakers or snow boots depending on your final destination. 

Adidas Swift Run Sneaker 

These sneakers are comfortable and stylish – two things that rarely go together but happen to be one of my favorite combinations. They’re also easy to get on and off if you’re going through security lines (please wear socks!) and they won’t look bad in pictures.

Parla Apparel Carino Scarf

I always get cold when I’m traveling, especially around my neck and shoulder area. This wrap from Parla Apparel is so luxurious and warm. It can also do double duty as a shawl for a night out on the town. 

TopTote Raffia Hat Holder

I just stumbled upon this brand and its hat holders and I am in love! I love to bring a hat with me on vacation – whether it’s a straw wide-brimmed hat to shade me from the hot sun or a felt fedora so I look chic in snowy weather. I really could have used one of these hat holders during my recent trip to Newport.

What it’s Like to Have a Miscarriage

Checked out the pumpkin trails at Halloween on the Checked out the pumpkin trails at Halloween on the Hill last week. 🎃 
Thank you to the team at Long Hill for hosting us!

A very important heads-up for my fellow mamas before you go: carriages and strollers are not allowed on the trails this year. Definitely plan to babywear or make sure your little ones have on their best walking shoes for the trek. 👟👻

Obligatory picture at the pumpkin wall at Wilson’s Obligatory picture at the pumpkin wall at Wilson’s Farm, because honestly... would I even be a New England content creator if we didn’t stop for a snap in front of this gorgeous autumnal masterpiece? 🎃🍂✨

Just taking in the view with my favorite little feline. We may have our backs to the camera, but I promise looking down at Aurora in her little October cat dress is the only view I really need anyway. Equal parts festive magic and everyday motherhood, wrapped up in the ultimate New England tradition.

Tell me—what is your absolute, non-negotiable fall photo op? 👇🥂

Even locals have rules about Salem in October—most Even locals have rules about Salem in October—mostly, stay far away and let the visitors have their moment. 

But when @DisneyAnimation invites you to check out their Hexed booth on the Salem Common? Well, even the most dedicated homebodies make an exception. And honestly? I am so glad we did.

There is nothing quite like an early Saturday morning stroll through this city when the crisp autumn air hits just right. We loved checking out the festive storefronts (shoutout to the spooky Dunks, though a little reminder to please support our incredible local indie cafes too—we have so many fabulous small businesses serving up life-changing pastries and local roast right here!).

We popped over to the Salem Common to experience the Hexed booth celebrating the upcoming release of this bewitching new Disney film, and it brought all the cozy, cinematic magic to our weekend.

Sometimes breaking your own rules pays off in gold (and a little bit of cinematic sparkle).

Plot twist: The most enchanting spooky season hidd Plot twist: The most enchanting spooky season hidden gem on the North Shore isn’t where you think. 🥀✨

Welcome back to another edition of Kate’s Take! Tucked right inside the charming galleries of the @wenhammuseum lives this permanent, three-foot-tall gothic masterpiece—and it is pure magic.

Lovingly handcrafted over eight years by the late Mrs. Mary Hinckley, this miniature Victorian mansion is an homage to Charles Addams’ iconic cartoons and the beloved 1960s TV series. Every parlor and winding hallway is dripping with macabre details—from Morticia and Gomez lounging in velvet chairs to Uncle Fester, Wednesday, and yes… even Thing lending a helping hand. 🖐️🖤

Skip the madness of crowded tourist streets and step into vintage, spooky nostalgia that’s perfect for both collectors and little dreamers alike.

Have you spotted this North Shore secret yet? Let me know in the comments, and don’t forget to save this for your October weekend itinerary!

Until next time, I am Fashionably Yours,

Kate

Come, we fly! Straight to Salem, of course. ✨ Sli Come, we fly! Straight to Salem, of course. ✨

Slipping on my chicest boots (and maybe a witch hat, for good measure) to run amok, amok, amok through the most iconic Hocus Pocus filming locations. There’s nothing like seeing the magic of your favorite Halloween movie come to life right here in my own backyard.

Ready to light the Black Flame Candle? Here’s where to find the magic:

🖤 The Ropes Mansion (Allison’s House) // 318 Essex St.
Still waiting on my invitation to the party at the chicest house in town. A girl can dream, can’t she? This colonial mansion is pure Salem glam.

💃 Old Town Hall (The Town Hall Party) // 32 Derby Sq.
You can practically hear Bette Midler casting a spell on the entire town. The site of the most legendary Halloween party in cinematic history. No contest.

🌳 Salem Common (Outdoor Scenes) // North Washington Sq.
The perfect spot for a crisp autumn stroll, plotting how to steal a spellbook from a trio of 17th-century witches. You know, a totally normal Tuesday.

🏫 Phillips Elementary School (Max & Allison’s School) // 84 Essex St.
Where it all began… and where Max learned the hard way not to mess with local legends. We’ve all had those high school moments. (Minus the witches, hopefully).

🏠 Max & Dani’s House // Ocean Avenue
The holy grail! That iconic witchy house with the turret is a private residence, so be a kind human and admire from a distance, darlings. Let’s not bother the current residents, no matter how badly you want to see the talking cat.

🍂 Pioneer Village (Thackery Binx’s Village) // 98 West Ave.
A step back to 1693 where our favorite immortal black cat’s story began. It’s charming, rustic, and just a little bit cursed.

Have you done a Hocus Pocus tour of Salem? It’s the ultimate way to get into the spooky spirit!

My girls are obsessed with @ghostbusters (clearly, they inherited their parents’ impeccable taste in cinema), and Arielle asked if we could visit the actual firehouse on our 2025 NYC trip.

My first thought: “It’s… real?”

Darlings, it is. And it’s iconic.

Hook & Ladder Company 8 @officialghostbustershq in Tribeca is a real, working fire station. So no, you can’t just waltz in and slide down the pole (I asked. Kidding. Mostly.), but you can live out your ‘80s movie-magic dreams, snag that perfect photo, and see the logo on the sidewalk.

It was a total New York first for me—even after living there!—and it was 100% my daughter’s idea.

Honestly, playing tourist in a city you thought you knew, all led by your kids? That’s its own kind of magic. ✨

Who you gonna call? 📞👻

What iconic movie spot should we hit next?
