That's right! We're going to France for 10 days!!! Leaving for a trip is always a process for me especially when it's out of the country for both business and pleasure! That's exactly what I had to tackle when packing for our 10 day trip to the land of wine and cheese to spend a little chill time in Provence and then attend a couple panels in Cannes as part of the MIP TV digital upfronts. We got named one of the top 5 New Producers To Watch and I also speak on a panel for our YouTube network Maker about what it's like to be a digital creator.
This is Part 1 of our France adventure which is all about prep and packing. I take you along with me, vlog-style, as I shop for and get ready to leave the country for 10 days! Let me know if you have any questions and stay tuned for Part 2 coming out soon!
Follow me on Instagram and Snapchat (add me via username: MrKate) for more fun. The jeans I picked up in this video are from RE/DONE - see outfits wearing my black re/done jeans here.

That should do for a 10 day trip... how about those shiny gold shoes on the end?


Mmmm love me some rubber Converse! I brought a variety of sneakers, heels, workout shoes and sandals since I'll have business functions and walking around sight-seeing to do. The weather is supposed to be 60's to 70's so I packed layers and light jackets.

I like to bring items I can layer like t-shirts and jackets and mixed prints so I have lots of options depending on my mood or the occasion. The cropped trench coat and jean jacket are both from ASOS!

Check out our new #WHYNOT Hat and Mr. Kate Logo Hat that are both available at the Mr. Kate shop!

Remember 'OOTD: Ryan Gosling All Up In My Junk'? Well here's another goodie from Clashist, my 'Sam Jones Powersuit Tee'!

Roxanne, I'm going to miss you!

My new Free People bag is about to become a world traveler. Can't wait to show these Top Shop shades a thing or two. These Ray-Bans have already seen some shiiit.



No look is complete without my Mr. Kate jewels!! Lots for layering and to add a statment to a simple top or dress. Get yours on the Mr. Kate shop!
Peace out LA, helllllooo France! Watch to the end of the video above to see how Joey and I got stuck in Switzerland because there was a strike in France and we had to spontaneosly rent a car to drive to France! And the adventure is on!
