Oooh YES I would definitely wear the leggings outfit on plane!!! Layers and pockets on vest!

I cut the drawstrings off.😂

Thank you for saying that you are not a blazer person. I am not either, and it feels sometimes like you aren't allowed to be chic and not like blazers. I am definitely a dress and cardigan person, though. You always look so stylish.

My place for scarves, and it may not work for everyone, is thrift stores. Some places are better than others. Another place is fabric stores. I’ve just bought a meter of Marino wool jersey in a couple of different colours. In addition to being a scarf, they keep you warm on the plane as well as being an extra blanket in hotels.

Ай бұрын

@@debsouther2981 I’m bad. I didn’t. Jersey doesn’t really ravel. It sort of rolls at the edges. I have seen wraps that you buy that have a satin bias binding, and I fully meant to do that, but one year later I’m still using the wraps and haven’t done that. Depending on your sewing skills you could just serge or zig zag the edges.

Yes! I just found a gorgeous pashmina.

You are a godsend! Your channel has helped me a great deal. I already own various jean jackets and Hey Dudes but your suggestions were also on point. I purchased the vest, New Balance and dress and absolutely love them (tried to find the wrap dress to no avail). I’m trying to revamp my closet and your channel has helped a ton.

This was great! Inspiration not just for travel. I think the denim on denim outfit looked great on you. I’m off to investigate if I can get those CRZ joggers in Australia. ❤

I agree about the drawstring.

I wear solid t-shirt and jogger sets from Amazon and carry a pashmina for warmth in case I need it. I’m also a lady dealing with menopause, and I always run on the hot side! I loved the outfits with joggers because that’s more my travel style.

I think I like the last outfit with the denim on denim! The scarf matches the orange top. I'd wear that!

Dress up the vest by wearing black pants, white shirt/blouse with 3/4 sleeves and the vest.

Love everything ❤️

Those CRZ joggers are perfect for traveling! I love mine! Thank you for your review.

Love your style. I actually purchased the navy wrap dress. Wonderful. It's nice when someone on the short side shows items. I'm only 5 foot tall so your recommendations are really appreciated.

Keep in mind, in case of fire when flying, American Association of Pilots suggests clothing low in synthetics. “polyesters burn like plastic…they burn and melt. The larger the percentage of polyester in the fabric, the greater the similarity to burning plastic. In a sense, if you're wearing high polyester blend garments and you're exposed to fire, you're wearing napalm.” It melts into your skin.

Ladies, ladies, learn to sew your own clothes. There are wonderful fabrics out there, wonderful patterns. Save huge dollars for the same clothes.

Regarding drawstrings, I remove them completely unless they are absolutely necessary to hold up the pants. Usually the elastic is sufficient.

@GenxGypsy1968

Ай бұрын

I usually remove them if I can, but the past few pairs of pants have had the strings sewn in a way that I can't really remove them without leaving holes. But I'm totally with you, when I can, I do!

Thank you for sharing your short girl status..I’m also 5’3” and now I know how these pants will fit me! ❤

These are all great looks. I actually bought a Scottevest during a recent sale (30% off for Mother's Day!), and wore it on a recent trip to see family. Loved all the pockets for my travel day, as well as during my trip. It was handy for shopping, walking the dog, etc. The weather changed quite a bit, so I was very happy to have the extra layer too. It's a pretty blue color too. 💙 I would be tempted to get the one you showed here too, though. I'm a vest person lol. Though I'm post-menopausal, I tend to be cold, so layers are it for me.

I also tuck the ties into the waistband of joggers because I hate the lumpy bumpy look under my shirt. On pairs where I know I will never use the ties, I either pull them out or cut them off. Also, I second the 33,000 Ft vest. It’s good quality and looks great.

Thank you for the waistband trick

I really enjoyed this video. Most of the outfits look great except the wide leg denim. I’m planning for a trip to New Zealand in November that I want to pack for in the most efficient way. So your method of mixing and reusing pieces is a good way to start. I’m older than you are, but I still want to look put together in my own style which is more casual/outdoor.

I have navy and black travel blazers with extra pockets. They are great!

I have several pairs of Old Navy linen pants. Love them!!!!!

Super helpful 🎉

I’m going to Amazon to check out merino wool.

I thought you did a really nice job with the leggings outfit. It looked classy as well as comfy. Don't doubt yourself!

Everything is great, except the last one. Looking forward to your Oregon trip. We have plans for August.

Thanks for sharing these ideas! You asked for comments, so I’ll weigh in: Love, love, love the animal print shoes, the scarves, the jean jacket, the lightweight blouse, the blue tank tunic and vest. You look great in blue - no need to apologize for wearing it a lot! I’m not in love with the shacket as it is just way too baggy on you. And so sorry, but the blue striped pants, as someone else has said, look a lot like pajama bottoms - maybe try them with dressier shoes? And I’m with you… denim on denim is hard to pull off! Great job with this video - you’re so down to earth and sincere. You’ve definitely inspired me to go shop my own closet, along with trying out some of the things on your link lists!

I’d love to be able to wear linen but it makes me itch 😢

I loved all the outfits and you made me stop and think i need to look for those pants! Lol in my closet! Tytyty loved your whole video!

Kohl’s has a huge variety of graphic tees. I tend to avoid Disney and such with huge in your face graphics, but I found more subtle ones that just say Dog Mom or Be happy,in a pretty script. You might find something to your liking there. 😊

Some drawstring pants have an option to thread them through the inside of the waistband instead of the outside. That way you can tie the bow on the inside and it won’t show.

And in the past, when I traveled to Peru and Iceland I traveled with a large Osprey backpack, which I do love. Unfortunately I've had some shoulder issues in the past year which has made getting the larger backpack on and off challenging.

What nlack dress?

How do you deal with wrinkles while traveling with linen?

@GenxGypsy1968

Ай бұрын

These Old Navy pants don't really wrinkle, I think because they are a softer linen?? I do have a linen dress I got from Amazon last year that gets a bit wrinkly, I just bring the downy wrinkle release with me, spray it on the item and then hang in the bathroom when I take a shower. Between the wrinkle spray and steam, most of the wrinkles come out...not perfect, but then I'm an 80/20 kind of gal, not going for perfection 😂

Blue clothes, and blue walls, and blue furniture. As opposed to the song, blue IS your color.

Just pull the waist drawstring out and throw it away.
