It’s March, so it’s about that time of year when I head out on a school trip with 20 students. Like last year, I’m in India. I scheduled this post after I packed for the trip. I’ll pretty much be did all the same things I mention in this post about packing for adventure travel, but I thought I’d show you the different theme I chose this year’s trip to India: culottes with graphic tees. When I travel, I usually go with a trend or a theme and base all my packing around that. For example, during this past summer’s road trip I went with all white and denim. I felt great the entire trip! When I’ve traveled to tropcial beachy areas, I select my cover-ups with care, and for this trip I simply went with simple Indian kurtas. Basically, I know want to be comfortable while I travel, so selecting a formula for the entire trip totally works for me. During this week in India my formula will be culottes + graphic tee + denim or white shirt = comfort with stylish modesty. Perfect for India!
Culottes:
The temperatures where I’m traveling in Inida vary from morning, noon, to night. There will be times when it’s quite brisk out and then by midday it could be cozily warm. I’ll be touring through a couple of cities and hiking in the foothills of the Himalayas so I’ll be in contact with locals. It will be improtant for me to be modest while remaining comfortable. Since I’m in India–the Queen of patterned, intricate, and bold fabrics–I can embrace this whimsy I love. Here are the culottes that will be in high use:
Graphic Tees:
I’ve been having fun collecting all sorts of nifty t-shirts with clever little messages: it started with “Nothing to Wear” and even infiltrated into a Friday work outfit. It has continued with “Weird is Rad” or simply just “Rad.” Now to match my culottes, I’ve collected a few more tees with a message that I’ll layer under my denim or white shirt.
Please note: I do not get back from India until Saturday morning, so my Style Story that usually gets posted on Friday afternoon will be posted on Saturday afternoon. I’ll make sure to take a pic of what I wear each day while I’m away!
