Transvestia
When the day is ended, you will want to relax and rest. Today there are delightful negligees of all kinds. No doubt you will get more use out of a tailored flannel robe you can slip into and just lounge. You can also get silk ones of the same design which are extremely attractive. You will probably long for an elaborate negligee, but unless you have lots of money and the type of home to wear it, you will find it a waste of good money. Your choice of P. J's or nightgown is optional. Both are available in every description and price range. You will have to decide between mules and slippers, but remember that slippers are much more satisfactory, although you may not think that they are as cute.
What clothes will you take on a trip?
Half the fun of going on a trip is in planning on what to wear. Whether by land, sea or air, any type of travel will, of course, have a tendancy to be dirty. If it is a train trip, remember to wear a dark tailored dress. A white collar and cuffs look nice when you start but they do not always look so well at the end of the trip. Now that there are air-conditioned trains, you can keep cool in summer which is such a help. The type of clothes for street wear is excellent for travelling. The weight of the garments you take will depend on the climate of the place you are going.
On shipboard, sport clothes are grand for day wear. In the evening you will dress for dinner except on Sunday and the first night out.
When planning a travel wardrobe there are two important things to remember. First, too much lug- gage is a nuisance and second, you must look well at all times. In order to accomplish this, it is neces- sary to plan a wardrobe around one color scheme.
