Breathable fabrics and comfortable cuts are essential for travel fashion— especially when you’re spending long periods of time in a car, train or plane. It’s common to experience a range of temperatures when travelling (and in most cases, it’s out of your control), so being prepared is key. This French Terry set is stylish yet cozy to wear, and all you need to do is add a few accessories to keep it chic. The pants feature an elastic waistband, an easy high rise and subtle inseam pockets with a relaxed wide fit. Keep it classic with a platform sandal that can transition from day to night and a small backpack that will hold everything you need and keep your hands free.
