I’m heading to Arizona this weekend for a quick but jam-packed four-day trip to visit my dad and stepmom and attend the Waste Management Phoenix Open—and I could not be more excited. Arizona in February is truly unmatched, and the weather forecast is looking absolutely perfect.
If you know my dad, you know he’s a planner in the best way possible, so he had our entire weekend mapped out from the moment we landed. From cocktails and good food to golf, sightseeing, and quality family time, it’s shaping up to be the perfect mix of fun and relaxed. I wanted to share exactly what I packed and how I styled each outfit for the weekend.
Thursday: Arrival, Cocktails & Pizza Night 🍸🍕
After arriving on Thursday and settling in, we kicked things off with cocktails at the Biltmore Spire Bar. It was the perfect place to unwind, catch up, and ease into the weekend. After that, we headed to Trevor’s Pizza, which my dad swears is the best pizza in Phoenix. Verdict? It was pretty good—and definitely hit the spot after a travel day.
For dinner, I wanted something that felt comfortable but still chic, especially after being on a plane.
What I wore:
Long Ivory Wide Leg Trousers from Zara
Gold strappy heels from Amazon
Black SNDYS button vest from Revolve
This outfit ended up being one of my favorites of the trip—polished, effortless, and easy to wear all evening. The wide-leg trousers are such a staple for travel dinners, and the vest added just the right amount of structure without feeling fussy.
Friday: Waste Management Phoenix Open ⛳☀️
Today is the big day—all day at the Waste Management Phoenix Open, and I am so excited. The energy, the crowds, the sunshine… it’s such a fun experience. With beautiful weather in the forecast, comfort was key, but I still wanted my outfit to feel cute and intentional.
What I’m wearing:
Tan Ella Shirt Dress from the OW Collection at Revolve
Tan Adidas Sambas
Clear mini bag from Target
All gold jewelry
Fendi sunglasses (of course)
This outfit is perfect for walking around all day—easy, breathable, and stylish. The Sambas keep things practical, while the shirt dress elevates the look just enough. We have dinner planned after the tournament, but we’ll be wearing our outfits from the day, freshening up a bit, and then heading back to my dad’s house later to play cards and relax. Truly my favorite kind of night.
Saturday: Exploring, PopStroke & a Special Dinner 🎉
Saturday is another full day, starting with breakfast and some sightseeing or shopping before heading to PopStroke, the Tiger Woods miniature golf experience—and I cannot wait. It looks so fun and right up my alley.
For daytime, I packed something sporty-chic but still put together.
Saturday daytime outfit:
Crepe Side Stripe Wide Leg Pull-On Track Pant from Express
Body Contour Mid Compression Mock Neck Bodysuit from Express
White openwork sweater from Nordstrom
Black Marc Fisher sandals
Burberry mini crossbody
This look is comfy, flattering, and perfect for moving around all day while still feeling styled. I love mixing elevated basics with sporty elements, especially when the day includes activities.
Saturday Evening: Special Dinner ✨
Saturday night we have a special dinner planned, so I packed something a little more elevated and fun.
Dinner outfit:
White Lioness Martini Dress
Sofia Orchid Sphere Heel Mules in White
These heels are such a statement and instantly elevate the entire look. The dress is sleek and timeless, and the shoes add just the right amount of drama without being over the top.
Sunday: Travel Day (Flexible Plans) ✈️
Sunday is our travel day, but we don’t leave until late afternoon, so I wanted options depending on what we end up doing. I packed a few mix-and-match pieces so I can adjust on the fly.
What I packed for Sunday:
Navy Form leggings
Yellow and navy sports bra
White Astoria Activewear zip-up
White H&M straight jeans
Cropped trench coat
White AllSaints T-shirt
Airport Outfit:
Soft Scuba Tapered Pant - Calia @ Dicks Sporting Goods
White AllSaints T-shirt
Soft knit zip-up sweater from Target
Whether we’re grabbing coffee, running errands, or just hanging out before heading to the airport, these pieces give me flexibility while still feeling put together.
Final Thoughts 🤍
This trip is the perfect blend of family time, fun events, and great outfits—and I love packing with intention so I feel prepared for every part of the weekend. Arizona weather makes getting dressed so easy, and I’m excited to share all the looks and moments with you.
