I hadn't even thought of the chance of rain! You'd think that would've crossed my mind given that I live on the West Coast. Either gumboots or my hikers should fit the bill. We'll be traveling with a baby and young child, so no big hiking excursions for us this time around. I'm thinking of picking up a pair of TOMS for the ship anyway.</p> <p>Packing for a week is more of a challenge than I thought it would be. I tend to pack too much, so I'm trying really, really hard to whittle my list down. There's laundry onboard, so I could wash some items. Here's my list (so far):</p> <p>Pants:<br /> boot cut jeans (x2?)<br /> red straight leg jeans<br /> olive green esprit chinos (?)</p> <p>Sweaters/jackets:<br /> grey cardigan<br /> shrunken navy blue blazer<br /> rain jacket</p> <p>Tops:<br /> white/navy striped tee<br /> knit grey nursing top (tunic length)<br /> black nursing tee<br /> knit black old navy tunic<br /> long sleeve hot pink knit shirt<br /> white shirt tunic</p> <p>Accessories:<br /> pink scarf<br /> navy blue scarf<br /> sunglasses<br /> hoop earrings<br /> necklace/bracelet (?)</p> <p>Shoes:<br /> nude/brown wedges (dinner wear...should maybe switch to black pumps?)<br /> gumboots or hiking boots<br /> casual flats (TOMS?)</p> <p>One dress (dinner wear) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-shoes-for-an-alaskan-cruise#post-631842 Tue, 29 May 2012 20:45:37 +0000 catgirl 631842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What will you be doing besides the cruise? My initial thoughts are: waterproof, grippy soles, and durable. I'd look at Merrell, Jambu and Keens for ideas. Toms are okay but the chances you will see rain are high. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-shoes-for-an-alaskan-cruise#post-631831 Tue, 29 May 2012 20:34:07 +0000 Niki Lea 631831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We leave next week and I need to buy a comfy pair of shoes (not flip flops) that can pull their weight both on the ship and on our daily trips on land. I'll be packing a pair of formal shoes for the one nice dinner my husband and I have planned without the kids.</p> <p>I've been going back and forth between dark grey TOMS and leather moccasins:<br /> <a href="http://www.toms.com/ash-canvas-classics-shoes-1831" rel="nofollow">http://www.toms.com/ash-canvas-classics-shoes-1831</a><br /> <a href="http://minnetonkamoccasin.com/Products/Detail/deerskin-soft-t" rel="nofollow">http://minnetonkamoccasin.com/.....kin-soft-t</a></p> <p>Any thoughts? </p>
