I Wore This Set for a 10-Hour Train Ride—Now, I’ll Never Travel In Anything Else

The set features wide-leg, drawstring pants and a matching white halter top and is just as cute for any summertime activity as it is for a 10-hour train ride through Upstate New York and into Canada. For proof, see how I wore it to the Miami Grand Prix. Even after it got muddy at the track, I bleached it and it became like new again, further proving to me that it’s an ideal travel companion. Ever since I wore it in Miami, it’s accompanied me on every trip I’ve gone on, garnering over a dozen questions about its origins in the process. 

Unfortunately, just after I got back from my latest trip in the set, ready to convince the world that they needed to buy it too, Zara’s annual sale started. And just like every time it kicks off, many of the best items included in it sold out lightning quick, two of which were my beloved linen halter top and drawstring pants (before I could buy it in black as well). Of course, I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for a restock, but in the meantime, if you happen to be heading off on a long trip in the next few weeks and have similar nervous feelings about your outfit for the journey, I went ahead and found a just-as-good alternative that’s not yet out of stock at the Spanish retailer.
