items Only 3 hours from my hometown - my family and I used to visit Missouri all of the time. Specifically Kansas City. The plaza, power and light, cute coffee shops…and allegedly good football (if you follow). I've also visited St. Louis a few times as we...

Where to sleep your lil noggin
Clean, industrial-chic, and historic. I loooove a historic place, Im not even kidding. It gives places so so much more character. PLUS one of the absolute best rooftop cocktail bars in the city with skyline views.
Crossroads Hotel | KC
Since the word “Chic” is trending - here is a super chic hotel. 10 story historic shoe building. Exposed brick, leather accents, art deco vibes with a rooftop pool/bar
Hotel Saint Louis, Autograph Collection
INTERESTING concept. You choose your room based on the emotion / color you want to feel (freedom yellow, passion red…etc.)!! SO unique.
Angad Arts Hotel St. Louis, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
What to Eat/Drink 🍜
From Coffee Shops, Bars, to Dinner spots.
Massssive 3-story brick building with open-air rooftop deck, on-site grain mill, annnd yummmmmy fresh pastries. Super worth the visit I promise. I go every time I'm in town.
Messenger Coffee Co. + Ibis Bakery | KC
Another multi-story food hall with a patio. But like super cute, and has plenty of local food vendors. Great for casual chilling + super cute vibes
Parlor | Food Hall KC
If you want a fun “dine out” night, this place is cozy, moody, and cool. Elevated Midwestern hearth cooking that feels high-end without being like overly pretentious you feel
CORVINO | KC
Behind a secret door in Crossroads, this is a dark, moody subterranean lounge washed with siicccck red lighting. Cocktail vibes
Scarlet Room | KC
Massive, redeveloped industrial foundry turned into a trendy food hall. Vintage shops, food concepts, and a subterranean speakeasy (None of the Above)
City Foundry STL | Food Hall
Minimalist, third wave, and wildly good espresso. What a mouth full. I should have turned that into an alliteration but close enough.
Sump Coffee | STL
Brunch inside a green house ahhh. Glass, lush, plant nursey. Super aesthetic and airy with (of course) farm-fresh dishes.
Bowood by Niche Brunch | STL
Shes an underground local legend. multi-level bar and courtyard built entirely out of mosaic tiles, recycled art, vintage toys, and neon lights.
Venice Café | STL
If you want super hella pink, this is your girl. Order a drink and shop their cheeky apparel and gifts.
Golden Gems STL | Bar
What do Do 🧘♀️
Some of my top fav spots around town!
If you happen to be in KC at the beginning of the month, the whole district turns into an outdoor block party with art galleries, food trucks, and performers
First Fridays | Crossroads KC
JAZZZY jazz club with aesthetic dimmed red lights, velvet walls, no cover charge, and llive music every night. ahhhh
Green Lady Lounge | KC
LOL famous for the Giant Shuttlecock on the front lawn. Worth a visit if you are super into badmitton and need to witness it yourself. Also just a cool museum
The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art | KC
If you are looking for some place to watch the football game at, or a place to go out - power and light is semi usually popping and usually a go to if you want a crowd. They have giant tv's which makes Chief games fun
Power and Light District | KC
Larger than Central Park, this is succchhh a beautiful spot. Have coffee, paddle board on a boat shaped like a swan, enjoy the nature.
Emerson Grand Basin | STL
This is not a museum. hahah. Its a surrealist playground made out of industrial materials and vintage planes with giant slides inside an old shoe factory. Make it make sense.
City Museum | STL
Where to Shop 🛍️
A girls gotta shop. And this is where she's gotta go.
Highly curated boutique mixing modern minimalist fashion, and vintage clothing / home decor. Super aesthetic.
Dear Society | KC
Gritty / cool / industrial - this vintage / antique store has three floors of treasssurreeee!
Bella Patina | KC
When I was younger - this place was my Disney World. We used to drive down JUST to shop. Since then, it has defffffsss not gotten the love it deserves. There's I guess a lot of local rennovations that need to be done to the plumming systems so that s...
