True minimalists prefer multi-functional clothing items when it comes to packing for travel. Pieces that can be worn different ways, or can function both as daytime and evening wear, are immediately valuable because you can limit the suitcase space needed…
Surfers know a little something about comfort. And when you’re traveling, comfort often means more than it does at home, because you’re constantly between tiny airplane seats, weird hotel beds, hauling bags, and generally in situations your body may not…
Last week, I introduced the Mountain Khaki Cora Dress, which is a versatile dress for spring and summer travel just about anywhere. Today, I want to focus on three pieces that work wonders in your travel wardrobe for equatorial climates….
Stohlquist is a name we can all trust when it comes to picking a personal floatation device (PFD) or life jacket, and I appreciate that this lightweight nylon one is sleek, with a thinner profile than most. In other words,…
I’ve always got an eye out for clothing that’ll combine into the most comfortable outfit to wear on long flights. The whole pajamas-in-public craze doesn’t do it for me, so I have to find clothes that work on a few…
It may be spring, but that doesn’t mean the weather immediately changes to sunny skies with no precipitation. And when you’re wearing your garden-variety cotton hoodie, it may keep you fairly warm, but if you get caught outside during a…
When you’re going to the Arctic or Antarctica (or a few other notoriously frigid parts of the world), you need a hardcore puffy jacket. But when you need to stay warm without all the bulk of those seriously insulated jackets,…
Two things are most important for winter footwear items to have: warm and waterproof. Sure, style is nice, as well, however it seems that people are often cool with picking up a bit of quirkiness with winter boots if they’ll…
Wool isn’t only for winter. Known for keeping humans warm during cold-weather activities like skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, climbing, and merely existing outdoors, wool also has other properties that make for great travel clothing. Two pieces that I’ve been using in…
Where will your travels take you in the new year? If you’re looking for footwear that gives you all-day comfort but will also keep your feet dry, whether you’re facing winter’s wet weather or summer snowmelt on mountain trails, there’s…
Let’s say you want to do some cycling on your vacation. Not hard-core mileage, but perhaps your hotel has a fleet of bicycles you can use to get from place to place, and you want to take advantage of the…
Chill Angel is a woman-owned company I just can’t stop raving about. Every item I’ve reviewed has been deliciously luxurious, warm, comfortable, practical and pretty. This Merino wool sleep and loungewear is designed by women for women to help us…
You may know Icebreaker for their awesome base layers for ski season, but what may have escaped your notice is how well this brand knows comfort and style off the snow. Ever since I picked up Icebreaker’s Zoya Pant and Dia…
If I could offer just one travel hack for women packing a travel wardrobe, I’d say to always coordinate outfits with leggings to minimize space. If I could offer two travel hacks, I’d add that a nice scarf can dress…
I’m always looking for the most comfortable and versatile travel shoes. You know the ones: You can wear them on the street and in the restaurant, they’re easy and quick to take off and on (for those TSA checks and on the plane), you can wear them all day without feeling like you wore them all day, and they look good.
You know how it happens: You’re in a rush, or distracted, walking on a sidewalk with a combination of ice and snow. It looks fine to walk on, but suddenly you hit a slippery patch. If you’re lucky, you save…
Autumn can be a tricky time of year to pack well for travel. You know you need layers, but you’re loathe to bring too bulky of jackets and outerwear, knowing you’ll be shedding most before the day’s end. In the…
Even if you think you have your summer clothing game handled, it’s always a great time to augment your warm-weather wardrobe when there’s plenty of product to be had and the puffy jackets of winter aren’t yet on display in…
I really like traveling with leggings and tights. They’re easily packable, comfortable, and can usually be versatile in my wardrobe. But honestly, some tights are just not quite…enough for travel days. They lack pockets, sometimes lack modesty, and can be…
Kids grow out of clothing items so quickly that you rarely want to spend money on specialized gear because they’ll wear it a couple of times before you hear, “it’s too tight!” That’s why many parents who don’t live in…
Sometimes you need hiking shoes on your vacation, but not any old hiking shoes. Let’s say you’re planning to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors, but you’re not going to be hardcore hiking, so you don’t need boots. And…
Boulder Denim is not your standard fashion jean, though they’re certainly still fashionable. Instead, this denim company inspired by the rock climbing community in Colorado makes jeans that are stretchy, ready to move with your body during a host of…
Sleek spandex shorts don’t have much of a place on mountain bike (MTB) trails. Dirt trails are made for semi-baggy shorts and a casual style. That’s why, on my off-road days, I’ve been sporting the Patagonia Dirt Craft Bike Shorts,…
Base layers are a must for winter travel. Of course, they’re a no-brainer on an outdoor-focused vacation like a ski trip, but we bring base layers on city travel too, during the cold months. Right now, we’re in Europe, and…
It’s pretty rare to find a pair of shoes that has the performance of hiking boots but the look of stylish city sneakers. And when you’re looking to have a few adventures on your travels but pack light, those rare…
When the temperatures drop, one of my top priorities is how to get warm. And while there are plenty of puffy jackets out there to help achieve my goal, I don’t want to spend all my money on one item…
The Gregory Proxy 45 is the perfect weekender bag for adventurers! Small enough to be worn comfortably as a backpack while fully loaded, yet roomy enough to stash enough gear and clothing for a long weekend, the Proxy 45 has…
