Neutral Territory
Travel is looking possible again. And what fun to imagine the perfect JV travel wardrobe. It must be packable, of course, and totally reliable. But also stealthy: as in versatile, a bit surprising, chic. With black as a base, creamy neutrals make it happen. Think white, ivory, khaki, tan, and beige. They provide a great backdrop for accessories, too. Let’s get airborne to neutral territory:
For your night flight, the core could be…
A black bodysuit with khaki separates. Taryn Winters offers the Pamona Gilded Lace Bodysuit with charming lined bust. Cadolle has two versions of a black bodysuit, the long-sleeved Coeur, or the stretchy tank-shaped Lola. Valery rounds things out with the Luna Soutache Bodysuit of shapely lace. Each bodysuit is sleek and comfortable, around the clock, beneath your fuzziest travel sweater and one of Vannina Vesperini’s new Khaki Silks in Midi Skirt or Jane Trousers. The subtle color and fluid shape of these two pieces make them perfect travel companions (there is a little Camisole, too).
On the ground, let your basics take you out to dinner with just the addition of…
A cocktail blouse, in black or white. Choose Olivia Von Halle’s retro Athena Silk Blouse in Muse (white) or Luna (black). Looks great day or night, dressed up or down. Handy with its detachable silk camisole, or worn by itself as a little jacket.
For sightseeing, be a vision in…
Neutral tops. Start with a Taryn Winters’s Margot Lingerie Set, in ivory or black French lace embellished by embroidery and beading. Add a Parigi Cotton Tank in white or black from Dana Pisarra. These finely detailed ribbed wonders will become your favorites.
And to accessorize…
A beret and clutch from Elisabeth Weinstock will pull it all together. We like the Barbados Black and White Beret and the Harbor Island Large Black Flat Clutch. Both in snakeskin.
Lowkey yet impactful, neutrals from Jane’s Vanity offer a smooth ride into the travel world you’ve been missing.
