Memphis in May

I am finally getting around to typing up my 2nd trip to Memphis! We had such a great time visiting for the Memphis in May international music festival. Once I heard Khalid was going to be in Tennessee I had to go! Luckily Graham and I have sweet friends with an extra bedroom just outside of Memphis where we got to stay for free! I did put together a little springy gift basket to say thank you and most items were from TJ Maxx or Target!

- Ketel One Botanicals - great summer vodka for cocktails at home

- a mixer for the vodka

- Aloe plant - from target but not on their site

- Ms. Meyers hand soap

- candle

- a funny tea towel from Blue Skies, a local Chattanooga shop with unique finds

- basket to hold everything!

What we DID

Wiseacre Brew Tour - SO COOL! Brew tours are one of my favorite things to do when visiting a city, but what I loved about this tour is that I already know and love some of their beers and the history was so neat! They only provide 1 tour on Saturdays at 12:00, and it is $18. You get to keep your glass though!

Favorite beer was the Memphis Sands which I had never tried before.

That's a lot of Tiny Bomb!! (40% of their production!)

Shelby Park - This place is awesome! Its a bit of a drive, but totally worth it. We just rode bikes, but theres trails, buffalo, kayaking, and much more.

Music Festival (duh!) - I got to listen to two of my favorite artists, Khalid & Miley Cyrus, and it was a dream come true! Here are some low quality pics of a high quality time!

What I WORE

I did not go all out in crazy festival wear for a few reasons

1. its not really my style

2. this festival is more low key than like bonnaroo and Coachella

3. I don't have enough money or time to buy all that lol

I wore pretty simple, comfortable outfits that were functional for our looooooong days inside and outside! I love basics and these styles can be mixed around too!
