Send the kids a fall care package while they’re away at school or load up on fall travel accessories for yourself. The brisk weather, outdoorsy days and bonfire nights call for a lineup of accessories.
You may already have all the big scarves and comfortable hats you need, but this list of versatile all-ages-approved, seasonal must-haves makes your fall travel much more comfortable and convenient.
Blankets
Going to a football game or just a hike to watch the leaves change, a blanket can be a gamechanger. Go through the warm, durable blankets you may already have or take a seat and relax on a limited-edition Marley Kachula Blanket and give back while you get cozy. Coalatree and Ziggy Marley joined forced to create the Kachula blanket while incorporating give-back initiatives into the product’s business model.
The Kachula blanket is water-resistant and includes a pocket for storage, a secret pocket for small items, a removable hood and can connect to other blankets to create a light sleeping bag. Purchase one on Coalatree’s website or keep an eye out for one on Ziggy Marley’s tour.
Wicking Apparel
Layering up in the fall is essential. Whether you’re already packing a scarf for the plane, bringing a hat or loading up on socks, fall travel can be fickle. Load up on moisture-wicking, light apparel for your fall trip.
You may be hiking, spending time by the lake or just generally enjoying the outdoors and you’ll be glad you packed a lot of light, layer-able, functional clothing and accessories. Check out Coalatree’s eco-minded goods, or L.L. Bean’s wide variety of fall wear for any occasion.
Versatile Bag
You may be visiting family, getting outdoorsy and hauling some items on and off a plane — you need a bag that can do it all. Bring a light duffle that can cross as a day bag or a functional messenger bag that looks chic by night. Check out the line of vintage-inspired messenger bags on Amazon or the broader lineup for work and play.
