Packing for my time in the mountains is exhilarating; the anticipation of the crisp air and the adventures that await capture me thrilled. As I think through what to bring, my hiking gear is the first to come to mind. Active fashion can be fun! Before planning the trails, I plan my hiking aesthetic – long sleeves act as a natural cover from the sun, a hat, long socks and boots are the backbone of my garb. I vary hike to hike in regards to what to wear on the bottom. Compression shorts, leggings or sometimes…even…hiking pants. The next question then of course is, back-pack or fanny-pack? Vest or none? Comfort is key, especially if you’re like me and plan to spend most hours outdoors. We’ve rounded up a variety of looks to help inspire your next trip to the mountains, and if you need a little more inspiration to book a flight…check out our Aspen post!
