No Ugly Travel Clothes!

 

If you've ever tried shopping for "travel clothing", you will be familiar with shapeless drawstring pants, boxy t-shirts, and big floppy hats. They don't scream "AMERICAN TOURIST" quite as loudly as a baseball hat and Nikes, but we feel there are still more attractive options. Whether packing for a girlfriend getaway, or any other type of trip, these are a few pieces you can take with you, wherever you're going.

We've combed the official travel gear sites, and picked our favorites that will allow you to wear travel clothing, and still look travel-chic.

Travel clothes need to be versatile enough to be dressed up or down. This tank is stretchy and comfy enough to wear on a day touring ancient Roman ruins, but can also be dressed up for a nice dinner overlooking the Aegean:

Every girl needs a good LBD, and one with a built-in bra is like gold when you're traveling:

When traveling, there are no two words you want to hear more than "wrinkle free clothing":

Don't forget to add a little color to the travel wardrobe. This is a great cover-up:

Don't you dare buy those Crocs. The comfort is not enough to offset the ugly. These sandals are adorable, and Sofft makes fantastically comfortable shoes.

So now you're all set to travel, but don't forget to leave room in your suitcase for the clothes you'll buy on your trip!

What does it say about me if I take both Crocs and Sofft flip flops when I travel? I love both brands. Yes, Crocs are ugly and make your feet look like boats, but you can't beat 'em at the beach or when hoofing it around Disney World.

And Sofft shoes....aaah. Couldn't live without 'em.

I think I am a foot-fashion disaster!

Thanks for your blog...Melody from CRAVEparty.com recommended it to me today.
