Do you ever read the title of an article and just start grinning from ear to ear? Because that is how I’m going to feel every time I write about my trip to Forks, WA.
I have been wanting to go to “Twilight” town for the longest time. But 1. Who would go with me? and 2. How random of a trip to go to Forks, Washington out of all places! But, my mom has to go on business trips, and every now and then I’ll tag along and we’ll make a weekend of it. Usually, it’s a bit “cooler” or more “popular” places like New York or California, but this time she has to go to Seattle, WA. And I didn’t even hesitate with my persistence and charm to convince her to let me go, make a long weekend out of it, and head to Forks after she’s done with her business trip.
I somehow convinced her—not that she needed much convincing because I am my mom's favorite travel buddy š„°—and now we’re headed to Twilight!
Now the state of Washington is apparently under a near-constant cover of clouds and rain, so you know I had to be prepared with my fashion-packed carry-on to make the most of this iconic trip. Here is everything I purchased for this trip and I’m hoping that the outfits come out as good as they look in my mind š .
Of course, I had—yes, HAD—to get some Twilight-themed t-shirts and for that, I went to Etsy. I found three shirts that I easily fell in love with and I know will go with my aesthetic for this trip.
Then, as I always do, I placed a huge order off SheIn. For every trip I take I always get a bunch of cheap trendy clothes so I can see if I even like the trend and want to invest in higher quality and more expensive pieces or if it’s not my vibe and I return it. So here’s everything I bought and I’ll update you later if I kept or returned it.

The last thing I bought was actually a “Twilight” inspired item, just not a clothing item though. I saw these keychains on TikTok and knew I needed these in my life. I just needed a good reason to buy them. A trip to Forks sounds like a pretty good reason to me š. These tinted-colored keychains represent each movie from “The Twilight Saga” and I am obsessed. #IYKYK the color tints from these movies were iconic! I bought one of each from the movie collection and I can’t wait to use them in the place where “Twilight” was actually filmed.
I was so excited to head to Washington š²š§! Click here to read the in-depth blog post of my trip to Forks and be sure to follow me on Instagram @michelekatsaris and TikTok @michelekatsaris for real-time travel updates!
