Travelling in style
Last week I had a request from the Starts at Sixty community to do a style column on some some sensible, lightweight clothes that are suitable for travelling. Particularly for long journeys overseas in the warmer months. So here are our best pics for practical summer travel overseas:
We’d love to hear what other things you would like to see in future style columns so be sure to tell us.
Merrell Barrado Silver Sea
This is the best selling Merrell shoe and perfect for travel. With a sleek minimal modern look, the Merrell Barrado will take you anywhere. They are lightweight and breathable, and the zip makes it easy to get on and off.
Merrell Honeysuckle Ivory
If sandals are more your style, these are made for walking. My mother in law swears by these shoes and loves to travel with them. The footbed is padded and treated with an antimicrobial solution. They also have an air cushion in the heel, which absorbs shock and adds stability.

This jackets has great attention to detail in styling and its fabric will keep you warm and dry. It is waterproof and has sealed zips and seams for extra protection from the elements.
