Today's traveling clothes.

We're leaving San Diego tonight on the red eye, but we had a 12pm check out. We've rented a car and are spending some time zipping around SD. So, what could I possibly wear that is appropriate for morning on the beach, afternoon around the city and evening on a plane? Sundress! Maxi sundress to be exact. Jersey, comfortable, colorful. The back is lemon yellow macramé. Pair with a cardigan and gladiator sandal type shoe and we're ready to go.

The only possible drawback to sundress is sunburn. It doesn't provide a lot of coverage for future possible sun exposure. The picture doesn't adequately capture how ridiculous my sunburn is. I clearly missed huge patches with my sunscreen. I've mastered my sunscreen application routine on the east coast, but west coast is totally different. There was a beautiful breeze all day that made it cold in the shade, so I just stayed in the sun, trusting my sunscreen application. If your husband says, do you think it's time to reapply, the answer should be yes, not, "I think I'm going to hold off and try to even out my sun a bit". Bad call.

But sundress for flight = good call. It might as well be a nightgown.
