  • Fall Travel Style: What to Wear and Pack for Fall Trips

    Fall Travel Style: What to Wear and Pack for Fall Trips
    Sep 2 2025
    From cozy local getaways to international adventures like Oktoberfest in Germany, autumn is full of crisp air, golden leaves and unforgettable destinations. It's also one of the best times to travel. Here's what to pack for fall. Best Fall Travel Outfits and Packing Tips for Local Trips, Halloween and OktoberfestFall is one of the best times of year to travel. But packing for fall trips can be tricky. The fall weather shifts from warm afternoons to chilly nights (and sometimes even early frosts) add an extra layer of thought to consider when you pack for fall.At 1923 Main Street, we live and breathe travel style. Our graphic t-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies are designed for travelers who want to pack light while staying stylish and comfortable. Here’s your ultimate guide on what to wear and pack for fall travel adventures.What to Wear for Fall TravelThe secret to fall travel outfits is layering. Layers keep you comfortable in changing weather and make it easy to adapt to different settings—from apple orchards to cobblestone streets.Base Layer (T-Shirts): A breathable graphic tee is the perfect starting point. It works on its own during warm days and layers easily under a hoodie or jacket when temperatures drop.Mid Layer (Sweatshirts and Hoodies): These are fall travel essentials. A cozy sweatshirt or hoodie keeps you warm in cool evenings and can double as a pillow on long flights.Outer Layer (Jackets or Flannels): For extra warmth, add a lightweight jacket or flannel shirt. If you’re traveling somewhere unpredictable, go for a packable, water-resistant jacket.Best Shoes and Accessories for Fall TravelShoes: Comfortable walking shoes or boots are a must. Waterproof options are ideal if you’ll encounter rain (like Europe in the fall).Bottoms: Dark jeans, joggers or travel pants that you can easily dress up or down.Accessories: Scarves, beanies and gloves don’t take up much luggage space, but they add warmth and style. And, of course, sunglasses are still essential for those bright, crisp days.Fall Packing Tips for Local GetawaysIf you’re planning a local day trip or weekend getaway in the fall—to a pumpkin patch, winery or mountain town—you don’t need to overpack (you never need to overpack).Pack two t-shirts, one sweatshirt or hoodie, and one jacket.Stick to jeans or versatile pants that can handle day hikes and dinner in town.Bring a small backpack or crossbody bag for snacks, water and souvenirs.Dressing for Pumpkin Patches and Halloween AdventuresSome of the best fall memories are made closer to home—picking the perfect pumpkin, getting lost in a corn maze, or heading out for a spooky Halloween event. For these outings, comfort and fun go hand in hand. A cozy hoodie or sweatshirt layered over a travel-inspired graphic tee keeps you warm for hayrides or evening trick-or-treat strolls. Pair your tops with jeans or leggings and comfortable boots, and don’t forget a scarf or beanie for when the temperature dips after sunset, if those are your type of thing. These outfits not only keep you comfortable but also look great in all those pumpkin patch photo ops.What to Pack for Oktoberfest in Germany (or any International Fall Trip)Heading abroad this fall? Whether it’s Oktoberfest in Munich or exploring European cities, smart packing is key.Daytime: Wear a t-shirt with jeans or joggers and add a hoodie when it cools down.Evenings: Add a flannel or jacket for warmth and style.Shoes: Comfortable walking shoes are essential for sightseeing (and for dancing in beer tents—don’t say we didn’t warn you).Extras: Leave room in your suitcase for souvenirs—you’ll definitely want to bring home a scarf and a beer stein (or two).How to Pack Light for Fall TravelThe beauty of fall travel wardrobes is that you don’t need much. By sticking to neutral colors and versatile layers, you can mix and match outfits without overpacking.A sample carry-on fall packing list:3 graphic t-shirts1 sweatshirt1 hoodie1 flannel or light jacket2 pairs of pants (jeans + travel joggers)1 pair of walking shoes, 1 optional dressier pair of shoes or bootsAccessories: scarf, hat, gloves, sunglassesWith this core packing list, you’re ready for anything—whether it’s cider tasting, exploring European cities, or cozy nights by a fire.Fall Travel Style with 1923 Main StreetFall is all about comfort, adventure and creating memories. With travel-inspired t-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies from 1923 Main Street, you’ll be ready for every part of the journey—warm afternoons, chilly nights and everything in between.Shop at 1923 Main Street, Graphic T-Shirts, Sweatshirts and Hoodies for Those Who Love to TravelThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and ...

  • The 10 Worst Travel Mistakes to Avoid on Vacation

    The 10 Worst Travel Mistakes to Avoid on Vacation
    Aug 26 2025
    We did a little research to come up with what we believe are 10 of the worst things that you can do when you travel. We’ve seen it all. Nothing ruins a vacation faster than being that tourist: the one who ignores local customs, disrespects sacred spaces, or treats a destination like their personal playground.10 Worst Things You Can Do on Vacation (and How to Avoid Them)At 1923 Main Street®, we believe the best journeys happen when you wander off the map, get lost in new places, and explore with curiosity. But there’s a right way to get lost — and a wrong way.So, before you zip up your bag and head out into the world, here are the 10 worst things you can do when you’re on vacation — and how to avoid them. Travel in style, travel with respect and get lost the right way.How many of these things have you witnessed or experience on your travels, and how did you react to them?10 Things to Avoid Doing When You Travel1. Ignoring Local CustomsEvery culture has its quirks, traditions and unspoken rules. From removing your shoes before entering a temple in Japan, to using the right hand for eating in India, ignoring local norms isn’t just awkward — it’s disrespectful. Do this instead: Learn a few key dos and don’ts before you travel. Locals will appreciate the effort, even if you don’t get it perfect. 2. Overpacking (and then Complaining About It)Dragging a giant suitcase over cobblestones while sweating through three layers? That’s not a vibe.Do this instead: Pack smart and light. Tip - a good travel hoodie or versatile tee goes a long way. 3. Treating a Destination Like a Theme Park People don’t exist for your entertainment. Snapping photos of locals without asking, or expecting “authentic performances” on demand are surefire ways to sour your experience. Do this instead: Engage your destination with curiosity, not consumption. Ask before taking photos of locals and participate respectfully. 4. Being Loud and ObnoxiousThat all-night party spirit may fly at home, but in a quiet village or a small guesthouse, you’re just the neighborhood fool (or worse).Do this instead: Keep it fun, but always keep it considerate. Follow the lead of those in the know.5. Only Eating What You Know Flying across the world just to hunt down your favorite burger chain, or asking a local restaurant if they can make your favorite dish from home... nope. Do this instead: Taste the local specialties. Food is culture and your taste buds will thank you. Worst case scenario, you have another great travel story to tell. 6. Forgetting Basic Phrases “Hello,” “Please” and “Thank you” go further than you think. Showing up without knowing a single word of the local language says, “I really don’t care.”Do this instead: Learn a handful of common words. Even if your accent is terrible, people will truly appreciate the effort.7. Disrespecting Sacred PlacesScratching your name onto ancient ruins, shouting in cathedrals, or dressing inappropriately at temples — huge nos. There have been too many of these stories in the news recently, so please do not be that tourist.Do this instead: Follow dress codes, keep your voice down and always remember that these types of spaces often hold deep meaning for locals.8. Overplanning Every MinuteVacations shouldn’t feel like military operations. Running from landmark to landmark without breathing means you’ll miss the magic in between.Do this instead: Leave time to wander, roam freely and even get a little lost. Getting lost often leads to your best stories (trust us, we’ve been there).9. Leaving a Trail of TrashPlastic bottles on the beach, food wrappers on the trail — nothing kills paradise faster.Do this instead: Carry reusable gear and leave no trace. Treat every place as if you’ll be back tomorrow.10. Forgetting You’re a Guest At the heart of it all, the worst travel mistake is forgetting that you’re a guest in someone else’s home town. Entitlement never looks good, no matter where you are.Do this instead: Travel with humility. Respect opens doors (and hearts).Travel in Style The world is wide and wonderful and waiting to be explored. Every destination (near and far) deserves respect. Avoid these travel missteps and you’ll come home not only with amazing memories, but with the pride of knowing you traveled well.And if you want to wear your love of travel on your sleeve (literally), you know where to find us: 1923 Main Street® — for those who explore with respect.Shop at 1923 Main Street, Graphic T-Shirts, Sweatshirts and Hoodies for Those Who Love to TravelThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia ...

  • Should I Wear a Costume to a Disney Parks Halloween Party?

    Should I Wear a Costume to a Disney Parks Halloween Party?
    Aug 19 2025

    If you’re wondering whether or not to wear a costume to a Halloween party at Walt Disney World or Disneyland, here’s what you need to know.

    Does Everyone Dress up at Disney Parks Halloween Parties?

    Disney Halloween parties are very fun events and, of course, Halloween is a time when many people love to dress up. But if you’re heading to your first Disney Halloween party and you’re wondering if you should bring a costume on vacation with you, this is what you need to know.

    Whether you are attending Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party at Disney’s Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World, or the Oogie Boogie Bash Disney at California Adventure at Disneyland, dressing up is a fun way to add to the Halloween spirit.

    A quick note to keep in mind is that Disney does have rules around what types of costumes are acceptable (and more specifically what is not acceptable), so be sure to check the Disney costume guidelines on their website before you go.

    Will I Feel Out-of-Place if I Dress Up (or Don’t Dress Up) for a Disney Halloween Party?

    A common question for first-time guests at a Disney Parks Halloween party is “Will I feel out of place if I don’t dress up?” Or sometimes, “Will if feel out of place if I do dress up?”

    In both cases, the answer is no.

    Disney encourages party guests to dress up because it adds to the festive atmosphere of the parties, but not everyone does. We have been to Disney Halloween events at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World and in our experience, it feels like a 50-50 split (give or take) between costumes and non-costumes on most party nights.

    People attending Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Walt Disney World may be more inclined to wear a costume compared to the Oogie Boogie Bash at Disneyland, but either way, whether you go in costume or not is completely up to you.

    Instead of a Halloween Costume, You Can Go with a Spooky Theme

    Cast members and other guests love seeing the costumes that guests wear. Some people really go over the top and it is great to see. But, remember to balance the practicality of the costume if you plan to go on rides or do anything other than posing with characters and trick-or-treating.

    If you don’t want to go fully into costume mode, there are other options. An easier way to get into the Halloween spirit of the Disney party vibe is to wear a graphic t-shirt or similar apparel that has a Halloween theme generally (or even a Disney Halloween theme, like Hocus Pocus or even a Haunted Mansion shirt).

    This is easier to wear, can be more comfortable and won’t take up too much extra space in your luggage. Also, if you’re attending one of the Disney Halloween parties in August or early September, it can be hot and humid (and even stormy) at night, so that is something to consider no matter what you plan to wear.

  • How to Know When a Hoodie Deserves Space in Your Suitcase

    How to Know When a Hoodie Deserves Space in Your Suitcase
    Aug 12 2025
    When you’re packing for a trip – whether it’s an island getaway, a European vacation or a Disney vacation – every item should have to earn its place in your bag. And that leads to a very common travel question: Should I pack a hoodie for this vacation?Answering the Question: Should I Always Pack a Hoodie When I Travel?At 1923 Main Street®, we create travel-inspired graphic hoodies, sweatshirts and t-shirts for travelers who want comfort and style on the go. We also know the hoodie can be one of the most versatile pieces you bring—or one that takes up space without ever leaving the suitcase. How to Decide Whether to Bring a Hoodie on VacationLet’s look at the pros and cons of packing a hoodie on your next travel adventure.The Pros of Packing a Hoodie for Travel 1. Versatile Comfort on the RoadA good hoodie is like a wearable comfort zone. It works in airports, on long flights, during cool evenings, or when early-morning coffee runs come with chilly air.2. Built-In Travel PillowYour hoodie isn’t just clothing—it’s a neck pillow, lumbar cushion, or rolled-up headrest for a train ride or airport layover nap.3. Stylish in Any SettingWhether you’re exploring mountain trails, wandering city streets, or watching the sunset from a pier, a hoodie shines with relaxed, travel-ready style.4. Sun, Wind (and even Rain) ProtectionA lightweight travel hoodie can protect against sunburn on boat rides, cool winds on breezy beaches and even scorching weather on desert hikes. As a bonus, a hoodie can also work as a rain blocker in an unexpected pop-up thunderstorm.The Cons of Packing a Hoodie on Vacation1. Takes Up Valuable SpaceHoodies are bulkier than t-shirts, sweatshirts or light cardigans, so packing one can mean leaving another item behind—especially in a carry-on or if you’re capsule packing.2. Slow to DryUnlike quick-dry travel shirts, hoodies can stay damp for hours if they get wet, which can be a problem for fast-moving itineraries.3. Not Essential for Every DestinationIf you’re heading somewhere hot and humid with minimal indoor AC, you might never actually need a hoodie. And the number one reason for overpacking is: I might need this…Do You Need a Hoodie for Summer Travel?The answer to this question is a possible yes. Even in warm weather, a travel hoodie can be useful:Air-Conditioned Flights and Buildings – Airplanes, buses (Disney buses, anyone?) and even museums or shops can feel freezing compared to the outside.Cool Evenings and Mornings – Coastal towns, deserts and high altitudes often bring a chill after sunset – even when the daytime temps call for your lightest of lightweight clothing.Additional Sun Protection – Breathable hoodies can offer good sun protection coverage in many climates, without overheating.Expert Hoodie-Packing Tips for Travelers If you do plan to pack a hoodie for your travels, here are a few packing tips to keep in mind.Pick the Right Weight – A lightweight, packable hoodie is perfect for summer; a thicker, fleece-lined hoodie works for colder trips. The most common hoodies you’ll find with be somewhere in the middle and can usually be flexible enough to adapt.Wear It in Transit – Save space in your luggage and stay warm on the plane by wearing your hoodie or tying it around your waist on travel days. Airplane pillow anyone?Roll, Don’t Fold – Rolling minimizes bulk and can cushion fragile souvenirs as an added bonus.Think Multipurpose – Use your hoodie as a blanket, privacy shield, or even a light sleep mask.The Bottom Line: Should You Bring a Hoodie on Vacation?If your destination has unpredictable weather, chilly mornings, or overactive AC, a hoodie is likely a good candidate to be a smart travel companion. However, if you’re headed somewhere consistently hot with little need for extra layers, you can probably skip packing that hoodie without too much regret.At 1923 Main Street, we design hoodies that earn their spot in your suitcase and for everyday wear. We create hoodies that work in multiple climates, keep you comfortable in transit, and still look great when you step out to explore.Shop at 1923 Main Street, the Spirit Brand for Those Who Love to TravelThank you for listening to the Travel Style Podcast at 1923MainStreet.com.Shop unique and original travel inspired and subtle Disney travel clothing, including t-shirts, sweatshirt, hoodies and more at 1923 Main Street.Follow along on X, Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook.Thank you for listening and always remember to roam freely and wear boldly.Mike Belobradic and Amelia Belobradic--Media provided by Jamendo
