SUMMER TRAVEL STYLE// fashion, styling

PLANNING A TRIP? WHAT TO WEAR?

It s been awhile since we had a trip anywhere, with lockdowns, travel restrictions and quarantines , it seems like travelling anywhere is not possible. I use to take a few trips to far off places, but after
a long haul flight of so so many hours, it does not appeal to me as much anymore. Running through large airports for connecting flights, finding the terminals and the lineups - well you get the idea.

Airports use to be fun but now i find them to overwhelming and more traveller pushing or running you over with the cases is like being at an amusement park.

I have more or less fallen in love with train travel, it takes longer but it is so much more soothing.
Plus more comfortable and relaxing. Plus better for the environment, which is very important!

SHOP MY CLOSET LOOK

My ideal outfit to wear , especially if going via train are a pair of slacks , a top, tank top or t-shirt, flat shoes and a good size tote.

Linen slacks are the coolest to wear and now linen items are available in many styles.
A top to throw over the shoulders if chilly or wear it, plus simple tank top for when it gets to hot.
Flat shoes are also good idea to wear , when climbing stairs

TRAVELLING STYLE

This long sleeve sweat top is a favourite, with the shoulder details and the colours.

A pair of linen slacks with pockets , this pair has added stretch

great for sitting in.

A roomy tote to hold all things needed for a trip.... books , scarfs, water, glasses , phone, etc.

OVERALL LOOK. LOVE THE COLOUR COMBO. THE TOP I HAD FOR SEVERAL YEARS.
BUT KIND OF LEFT IT SITTING IN CLOSET. SAME WITH THE SLACKS.
THE ONLY NEW ITEM IS THE TOTE.

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

Doing Denim I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable. For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short. I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days. Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it. Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets. There are so many ways to style a denim dress. A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck.

SPRING LOOK //Fashion , Style, Spring

Time for some color Finally the weather is warmer and can wear lighter clothes. I especially like to start the summer/spring with some color . One of my favorites is a colorful knit on I bought years ago , a Liz Clairborn design. It’s a piece that just say spring is here. After a long , cold winter of wearing mostly dark or muted shades it’s nice to bring out something bright a cheery.
