What I Wore: Royal Caribbean Bahamas Cruise

July 24, 2024 by Katie H.

Royal Caribbean Bahamas Cruise outfit ideas.

After a long month of traveling with the kids this summer, Kevin and I snuck off for a 3-night Royal Caribbean Bahamas Cruise at the beginning of the month. It was our first trip without the kids since our 10th-anniversary trip to Las Vegas (Read that post: What I Wore in Las Vegas ) We both turn 40 at the end of the summer, so we felt this trip was the perfect way to celebrate our big milestone birthdays and enjoy some quality time together. I have to say that this was the best vacation that we have been on so far together. It will be hard to top! Today I want to tell you all about our cruise and of course; share all the outfits that I wore!
