For the better part of this year, I’ve lived out of a suitcase, travelling for work and research, with holidays here and there. When the trip I’m currently on was extended from five weeks to several months, it became a real test for the outfits I packed and my need – as someone who thinks about fashion a lot – to look and feel fresh.
Everything has been on very high rotation, but the two items I’ve worn the most are a black high-necked ribbed jumper with a zip front and a black pair of pants with an elastic waist. I wear them on flights and trains, when I’m writing at home, to and from yoga and on my morning coffee run. I even drove halfway across California in them to visit a flax farm. Because of their architectural, roomy cuts, they look chic but feel comfortable, which is why I wear them so much.
