You’ve packed the SUV to the brim, snacks at the ready, locked up the house and the engine is revving – you’re anticipating the breeze breaking through the sun rays. The road is waiting. But what are you wearing?
Road trips require a certain type of travel wardrobe: you want to look the part for a holiday (no tailoring needed – you’re off the clock). Stretchy waistbands or free-flowing shapes are a must – you’ll be sitting for hours. It’s not glamorous, but it sure is liberating.
It’s clear you need comfort – but you still want to be well-dressed. That’s the road trip style conundrum: finding pieces that feel as good as they look. Luckily, you don’t have to choose between the two.
