If you’ve followed this blog (and to my surprise a LOT of you do), you might notice that I travel. A lot. And while I usually have the airplane routine down, I never quite nailed the “what to wear on the plane” outfit. NYC – LA, no problem. NYC – Kilimanjaro or Cape Town or Delhi or any other 12+ hour flight – problem. As much as I love my Lulu Lemon groove pants, they get “knees.” Not cute.

My friend Pauline convinced me to buy these pants from J. Crew:

Silky Linen Slouchy Pant

Silky Linen Slouchy Pant

At first I thought that an arab girl in a harem pant was a bit much. Then someone pointed out that technically this is not a harem pant. Phew.

BUT this is a fabulous pant to wear on the plane, even for 16+ hours because its just slouchy enough where even if it does stretch a bit around the knees it keeps the overall slim line. You arrive at destination, throw on a pair of heels, and look fabulous.

And, conveniently, they’re now on sale. I got the dark pewter. Check them out here.
