lewie272 Posted December 8, 2006 #1 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Hi there... My hubby and I are cruising Jan 13th on the Voyager. I am looking to buy some new clothes for the cruise, (shorts, tops, etc). We live in Massachusetts and the stores all have Winter Clothing. Anyone know of any good online shops to purchase cruisewear? Any help will be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porterhouse Posted December 8, 2006 #2 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I would try J.C.Peeny for your tux. $99 for coat and pants. Great bargain Regards, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules815 Posted December 8, 2006 #3 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I buy a lot of my summer tops and shorts from Lands End. (http://www.landsend.com) They also have great bathing suits and water shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted December 8, 2006 #4 Share Posted December 8, 2006 You should have something from last summer! Bring that! Check any "discount" stores, like Marshalls, Ross, Big Lots, etc... They get the clothing that didn't sell from the big Department stores. I've run across some really good buys that I intend to wear NEXT summer, at really cheap prices!

lewie272 Posted December 8, 2006 Author #7 Share Posted December 8, 2006 There are no tuxes for us. A nice suit and a tasteful dress or pantsuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue L Posted December 8, 2006 #8 Share Posted December 8, 2006 You might want to try the clearance racks at the stores. I don't know where you like but there was a lot of summer stuff still left last week at Kohl's and Penney's . Also Landsend.com has a great resort section and they can be returned at your local Sears. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabby50 Posted December 8, 2006 #10 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I like coldwatercreek.com. Look in their outlet - they always have great off season stuff on sale. Also, territoryahead.com and my favorite sportswear site is title9sports.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janice M Posted December 8, 2006 #11 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I buy a lot a coldwatercreek.com too. Their outlet has wonderful buys and in many women's magazines there is a $25.00 coupon for a $100.00 purchase and they even honor the sale items. I have gotten over $300.00 of items for $100.00.

Gilgorm Posted December 9, 2006 #19 Share Posted December 9, 2006 My choice would be Tilley Endurables at www.tilley.com May be viewed as being a little pricey but well worth the cost. You do get what you pay for. The Tilley Silks line of women's clothing are my favourite. Pieces can be rolled into a small ball and are minimally creased when unpacked. The pants and skirts come with secret pockets that are pick pocket proof. Great to put in extra credit cards or bills. The travel underwear is great. Just as they advertise you can pack for a two week vacation with only two pairs. The tilley hats are wonderful too. My husband loved the zip off pants/shorts. He would wear the shorts during the day and zip on the legs to wear in the dining room at night. The pants even after almost a weeks worth of wear looked incredible.

Nitra Posted December 9, 2006 #20 Share Posted December 9, 2006 http://www.newport-news.com or http://www.spiegel.com I was going to suggest these two. I buy a lot of stuff from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMN Posted December 9, 2006 #21 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I buy a lot a coldwatercreek.com too.

Jan Ditto for me for Coldwatercreek. They currently have free shipping, as do many other online sites before Christmas. Check out their their "travel knits" which pack easy and don't wrinkle. Happy shopping. SMN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAT GIRL Posted December 9, 2006 #23 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I work in retail and we received a shipment of flip flops in this week. Yes, it 10 degrees outside and we're getting our summer stock in. Stores receive their seasonal merchandise earlier each year. Of course you will be paying full price but you'll get first pick of all the sizes:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadie mae Posted December 9, 2006 #24 Share Posted December 9, 2006 travelsmith.com has clothing, luggage, all things travel. Might try it. Haven't bought any clothes, but a couple of handbags & waist paks with the metal in the strap to discourge theft. They also have an outlet/clearance section.

isujim Posted December 9, 2006 #25 Share Posted December 9, 2006 You know the OP makes a good point.........my DW and I have even talked about it..........Plan your clothes ahead of time by 6 months when you cruise. We cruise every Spring and Fall...........in March/April we buy some clothes we might need for our Fall cruise.........in Oct/Nov we buy what we might need in March or April.......... Try buying sandels in December...........yet I bought a new pair in August and have never worn them........they are for the March cruise we have planned......... Good point by the original poster............buying new cruise clothes should be in a rotation depending on when you cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
