What to Wear on your Fall Road Trip

It really is a beautiful time for falling leaves, pumpkin spice lattes and a road trip. You definitely need to take more than one! different areas will showcase their best colours on different weekends. These days you may only feel safe with a day trip (but check your trusted hotels and airBnB on overnight stays) then either select a route, or randomly follow a direction on backroads. 

Because temperatures can go up and down by over ten degrees, knowing what to wear can tax your brain. So start at the bottom and consider your activities, planning a mountain hike or walk on a nature trail requires dependable footwear. Dress in layers so that you can shed one or two as the day gets warmer, and pack extra socks so you will have dry feet if you get caught in a rain shower. 


For an outdoor excursion we recommend; leggings or sturdy jeans with enough stretch to allow you to climb a mountain if you want. Top with a long sleeve shirt and warm vest (slide a bamboo tank top underneath if you are prone to chill) add a scarf and enjoy your day!

For a long car ride - comfort is key - so again, fabrics that breathe in leggings or jeans with stretch (like Yoga Jeans, that won't bag out over the day is vital to your style), a short sleeve shirt under a tunic or sweater, and a denim jacket to easily slip on and off so you can grab some photos.

Meeting friends: for an outdoor picnic, or wine tour, again it is all about layers. From comfortable leggings or jeans, topped with a shirt or two, and a jacket you can slip over your shoulders or toss on the back of a chair when the sun comes out.

When you are wearing layers, it always helps to wear natural fabrics that breathe. You don't want to be trapped under several layers that make you sweat, which results in being chilled befor you know it. Plan a road trip, or an accidental jaunt, meet friends (social distance) and enjoy the day.
