Tailored Tuesdays + Adventure

I'm going to UTAH next weekend to celebrate the fourth! What better way to celebrate the independence of our nation than visiting part of it that I've never seen before and by hiking and adventuring for five straight whole days? The adventure awaits! I just hope it's not too, too hot...

just because you're gonna be covered in dirt, doesn't mean your nails can't be flirty ;)
