Travel in style and comfort with plenty of pockets and patterns from Popsy or multipockets from Scottevests. Outfit 509.

 

A pattern of books, from Popsy Clothes. 

The first thing to make yourself happy when travelling is the right clothes which make you proud of who you are and pleased about where you are going. Conversation-starting clothes can which express your interests. You can buy clothes with patterns such as: books, old fashioned phones, sewing machines, flowers and, for children, other interests such as dinosaurs 

Just the thing for a writers' conference, or book group. Blaze. Thirty nine pounds on shopify, from Popsy clothes in the UK. Two pockets and tie front.

A playsuit, above the knee.

(A jumpsuit is ankle length.)

Dresses with two pockets

Popsy Clothing in the UK makes dresses with two pockets, as you see from their garment photos on models with hands in pockets. Also other clothes, with two pockets (in a range of sizes of clothing) and bags, for women and children. 

Popsy anti-chafing underwear.

The Popsy company also sells anti-chafing above the knee long underpants in cerise and red (no pockets). Such jolly colours. Make you feel good about yourself when you dress, undress, and go to the toilet (or as the Americans say, rest room and bathroom).

On facebook they welcome suggestions for new styles and patterns.

The American company, Scottevest, started by Scott Jordan and his wife, goes for pockets, many pockets, big pockets, and hidden pockets for security.

The Daisy dress, cap sleeves, above the knee, by SCOTTeVEST, has eight pockets. It costs over 100 US dollars.

Their website has some amusing puns. Not rocket science but pocket science.  

If you want to read more, he has written a book, Pocket man. The company moved to Ketchum in Idaho, famous as the home of Hemingway.

Here's a book by and about the founder,

I wonder if you can fit the book in one of the pockets? If you read it online, on your mobile phone, yes you can.

For a Man

Fishing and golfing and photography and other sports jackets and vests with multi pockets abound. However, they are mostly bulky, shapeless, sporty. However, I found one white jacket or rather sleeveless vest for men, with pockets, but smart for a special occasion or business event.

You could buy book pattern fabric and make your own garment, I thought. Spotlight is selling it at $30 a metre and a metre is only 3 feet, so you need to spend 60 plus postage plus the time in making. Cheaper to buy a garment readymade. If you just want a tote bag and scarf, or dickey or shawl and headband, this could be for you.
