How to Look Chic When Traveling

Finding the right traveling clothes that cover all your needs for a long plane ride can be tricky – especially when travel outfits aren’t really JUST for the plane… This same travel outfit needs to carry you from your home, to the airport, plane, taxi & uber rides, trains and everything in-between until you reach your final destination.
After considering all of the varying accommodations your ensemble may require, one might wonder if it’s even possible to have cute travel outfits. You’re in luck, because we have a method to create chic outfits that check all the right boxes!

Important Elements in a Chic Travel Outfit

Comfortable, But Not Sloppy – When you’re sitting in one place for a long time, your outfit needs to be comfortable – sometimes, comfortable enough to even sleep in! Stick with wrinkle resistant materials that are roomy and layerable.

Slip on Shoes – Don’t create more hassle than necessary with TSA. Make sure your shoes are easy to take on and off. Think comfortable loafers, slides, low heel ankle boots and slip on sneakers.

Think of Your Location – Travel outfits also need to be weather and locationally appropriate from your start to end destination.
Traveling to somewhere tropical? Keep your base layers breezy and light.
Traveling to Europe? Think classic, layerable pieces like chic knit separates.

Traveling in Layers – Travel outfits should be adjustable in layers to accommodate surprises in temperature (such as air-conditioning, or lack thereof). Layers like a blanket scarf, sweater, cardigan or thin jacket can be a life saver on a plane with extreme air conditioning. Make sure your layers are easy to peel off if a full flight gets too toasty. 

The Finishing Touch – Keep simple, chic jewelry tucked in your purse to accessorize near the end of your flight – Walk off the plane in style!  

We’ve come up with three travel-ready outfit ideas to copy for your next vacation. 

The Slouchy Knit Dress

Pair an easygoing knit dress with slip on sneakers, slides or loafers and top it off with a blazer, oversized coat or shacket.
