Perfect Travel Pants
Look elegant (and fabulous) without having a lot of packing space taken up, and with pants that you could run over with a truck and then pick up, put on, and wear.
Check out the (solid-colored rayon/Spandex) Palazzo Pants With A Waist Tie and then my favorites, the Wild-Patterned Palazzo Pants With A Foldover Waist
.
These take absolutely no space to pack. They do need to be handwashed in the sink (because the color will run in the washer), but I have a few pairs, do them all at once, throw them in the spin cycle of the washer, and then the dryer on low.
And the handwashing takes no time. I dump woolite in the sink in some cold water, swish them all around for 45 seconds or so, throw them in the tub and then throw them in the washer.
I don't travel in jeans. These feel like pajamas but look like fabulous pants.
Search Amy's Amazon here. for items not listed in this post.
I get a wee kickback from your purchases (at no cost to you), which is much appreciated!








I travel to places that do not have a washer/dryer... or they do, but the w/d is not handy.
So the best travel pant/shirt for me is one that I hand wash in the hotel sink, hang up wet in the shower and it is dry and wrinkle free in 8-12 hours.
Are these offered anywhere ?
I bought some travel clothes like this years ago, but they have been discontinued and I cannot find any retailer that offers them. This includes online travel sites like Travel Smith and Magellan.

How are these long enough for you? (I thought you were 5'11" or so, like me.)
