Important Elements in a Chic Travel Wardrobe
Finding the right outfit that covers all your needs for a long plane ride can be tricky – especially when your outfit isn’t really JUST for the plane… This same outfit will carry you from your home, to the airport, plane, taxi rides, ubers, trains and everything between until you reach your destination.
After considering all of the varying accommodations this outfit requires, one might wonder if it’s even possible to still look cute. You’re in luck, because we have a method to create a chic outfit for travel that checks all the right boxes.
When you’re sitting in one place for a long time, your outfit needs to be wrinkle resistant and absolutely HAS to be comfortable – sometimes, comfortable enough to even sleep in!
Your outfit also needs to be weather and temperature appropriate from your start to end location. It also has to be adjustable to accommodate surprises in temperature (such as air-conditioning, or lack thereof). Traveling to somewhere tropical? Keep your main layers breezy and light.
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 and slip on sneakers.
Traveling in Layers – Layers like a blanket scarf, sweater, cardigan or thin jacket can be the life saver on a plane with extreme air conditioning. Make sure your laters are easy to peel off if a full flight gets too toasty, or your ending destination is tropical.
Keep simple, chic jewelry tucked in your purse to accessorize near the end of your flight – Walk off the plane in style!
And after considering all of these requirements, one might wonder if it’s even possible to still look cute. You’re in luck, because it is! We’ve come up with three travel-ready outfit ideas to copy for your next airplane ride.
