Whether you’re already planning a Fall getaway, or you’re job garners you the title of “road warrior,” thinking about what to pack can be a hassle – especially when it comes to keeping everything in your jam-packed suitcase wearable upon the arrival of your destination.
Thank goodness for the folks behind UbU, a practical travel line of clothing that is both stylish and wrinkle free! The company was founded in 1991 by Alan Blau and originally launched as a tye-dye sweats and T-shirt company! Biz partner David Koral came aboard in 1996, when the dynamic duo decided to blend their strengths and form the UbU of today.
Whether it’s the great outdoors or an urban excursion, UbU clothing is perfect for any destination. The line includes women’s travel apparel including jackets (waterproof), blouses, dresses, skirts, bags, accessories and more. Pieces are reversible lightweight (yet warm), wrinkle free and offered in a bevy of prints and solids. Our fave? The pillow jacket, which turns into a pillow and bounces back to shape the second you put it on!
We’re all a tourist at some point, but it doesn’t mean you have to dress like one. If you’ve previously sacrificed style for the sake of comfort and space in your suitcase, then add a little UbU to your wardrobe. Just think of how great you’ll look in all your vay-cay pics.
