Felled by a mystery virus, blogging this weekend took a backseat to sleeping.  So now that I’m feeling better, how about a belated Monday Outfit?

The perfect fall travel outfit has several components. First, layers to prepare you for indoors, chilly planes, and cold weather.  Second, it must be comfortable.  And third, it should be comprised of neutral basics that you can pair with other items in your suitcase.

I’m old enough to remember the early-80s, when every woman in America under-40 wore ponte leggings with stirrups on the bottom.  So when leggings came back into vogue a decade ago, I was non-plussed.  Suddenly, there were interns wearing leggings with blazers, and uncomfortable conversations to be had.  Now, leggings are everywhere.
