Stay/Eat:
My favorite collaborators and I went to Amangiri, the most incredible resort I have ever stayed at, to shoot my basics collection. Will Graham is one of my oldest friends and the most talented photographer I know. Makayla Harmon has modeled for Cover since its inception and is my fashion little sis. I knew Amangiri would be incredible, but my expectations were exceeded upon arrival. The modern architecture of concrete and wood built into the Mars-like topography and desert pools are simply breathtaking. The resort is all-inclusive in a luxuriously chic kind of way, so you can try anything/everything on their beautiful menu without worrying about steepening your bill.
See & Do:
If you have not seen the Grand Canyon before, it is too close to miss. Pictures don’t do it justice. It is incredible and really puts the wonder of our Earth in perspective. We went on a tour (booked ahead of time online) of Antelope Canyon. There are a few different slot canyons around and they are incredible. It is completely worth the extra time and cost. Wear running shoes and workout clothes, because you will be hiking through some sand to get to the canyons from where the jeep can drive to.
Shop:
I loved the Native American stands in the Grand Canyon. I bought some super cool necklaces and anklets as gifts. Bring cash, as they do not have mobile service and cannot take digital forms of payment.
