Separates work best on honeymoon
"What shall I wear?"
Think in terms of
versatility in choosing
your clothes for your
honeymoon. Separates
work best, but a pretty
dress may do so much for
your morale that it
becomes the start of an
adventure. And that's
what travel is all about.
Take a look at your
itinerary. Check the
climate where you are
going.
Think through_ each
day's activities. Decide
what you need for that
day.
Morning walk, Item 1:
comfortable shoes. Pants
still acceptable. Skirts
are newer.
Lunch in the park.
Easy.
Dinner at a divine little
bistro or inn in the
countryside. Or maybe
theatre in the evening.
Something a little
dressier.
But if your choice of a
daytime skirt is a non -
wrinkle knit silk or jer-
sey, just change your
shirt for a soft tunic, sash
it with something wild,
add an exotic necklace,
some strippy sandals and
you're ready to go.
Rule of thumb: put out
what you THINK you'll
need, then eliminate half
of it. That's probably a
little too simplistic, but it
will at least head you in
the right direction.
Cruises seem to bother
more women than any
other kind of vacation or
honeymoon. Yet today'"s
cruises are so casual and
informal, they really
present no problems at
all. Shorts, slacks,
bathing suits. Cotton, if
you're, heading for tropic
ports.
Add a few wildly
printed evening skirts —`
or your favorite Mexican
embroidered' long dress
— even a muumuu adds
to the festive air of
