What to wear

Recommended Posts

Hi,:) you might want to be a bit more specific. Are you talking about

the day you sail? Or for dinner? Or both?

Sailaway I usually wear shorts and a top with a pair of sandals.

I put a change of clothes for dinner in my carry on. I am one of those

folks who wants to shower and change before dinner, even

on the first night.

I usually pack a skirt and top...or slacks and top....usually

something unwrinklable:D in the Chico's or Citiknits material.

Very easy to pack and you can dress it up or down.

 

oops, you said the evening...sorry! That is in my last

paragraph:)

It will be warmish, so definitely no parka. Haha, canadian joke. But maybe stick with capris or pants and flat shoes for the first night till you get used to the movement of the boat again. You'd hate to have the ship move and you not move with it, and fall over in a dress and heels! Wear a sparkly shirt or something similar for dinner with your pants and glam it up as much as possible.

 

However, on our cruise, there were plenty of women dressed exceptionally well the first night, I still don't know how some of them survived in heels when they were looking pretty green...

 

Happy travels!

That is exactly what I do Lois. I have some very nice pieces accumulated over the years of Chico's travel line including capris. They roll very nicely and take up very little room in my suitcase. Everything sold at Chico's out here, always goes on sale and when you combine it with the coupons they send you, you can get wonderful bargains. They are just starting to show their light weight pants in the stores.

Hi:) I am sailing from San Diego in March and have decided

to change my packing stradegy;). I have flown to CALIF

twice before to take cruises and have always done quite

well with my packing.

This time I want to do even better:D I have lots of

outfits in that wonderful material..whether from Coldwater

Creek, Chicos or Citiknits!

I am going to check my closet, and other than

my formal wear, I am going to see about bringing all

of those outfits for casual and informal nights!

Bet it will be easy as pie to pack!!!:)
