Your trip is booked. Your bag is packed. Now it’s time to dress for your big adventure. Travel is great, especially when you feel comfortable from point A to point B. So how do you stay stylish at any altitude? Key pieces that are easy and comfortable will help you get to and from any destination.
First Class
High altitudes call for high fashion. Keep your look sophisticated with a faux fur vest. Stay sleek with an all-black ensemble of fitted basics underneath. Trend-right pieces can be fun, fresh and perfect when you fly the friendly skies. And make room for all of your travel essentials in an oversized handbag that doubles as your carry-on.
She & Sky Faux Fur Ivory Vest, $69; Free People Black Layering Tee, $40; Matty M Black Leatherette Leggings, $49; S’Well Onyx 9oz. Water Bottle, $25; Liebskind Izumi Dragon Rust Leather Handbag, $328; Tribal Print Creme and Black Wool Scarf, $36, all available at Bell Tower Salon & Spa.
Business Class
Get an upgrade in style when traveling for business: pair classic tailored pieces in durable fabrics for a pulled-together, professional look. Select items that travel well and stay free of wrinkles, in colors that hide any spills, like black or gray. When your daily commute consists of travel, make sure your outfit can go the distance in style and miles.
Frank Lyman Tweed Crop Pants, $149; Dora Landa White Silk Blouse, $169; Simple Natural Black Flyaway Cardigan, $155, all at Jan Rae. Longchamp Black Large “Le Pliage” Tote, $145, Bloomingdale’s.
Comfort Class
Sometimes travel can be uncomfortable: think small seats, close quarters, long distances. But when you dress for comfort, your trip gets off to a great start. Choose easy-to-wear pieces. Pull on skinnies and cotton tees, and top them off with a cozy cashmere wrap. It adds extra style and warmth, and layers are great when you need to quickly transition from the tarmac to being a tourist.
Up! Denim Skinny Pull on Jeans, $110; Z Supply Blue Yarn Long Sleeve Tee, $39; Claudia Nichole Blue Cashmere Draped Topper, $145; PurseN Weekender Pale Blue and Prima Vacationer Black Jewelry Cases, $39, all at Bella Jules.
Red Eye
Overnight flights call for the maximum in comfort. Choose loungewear separates in breathable fabrics that look as good walking through the airport as they feel sleeping through the time zones. Speaking of which, when you are back and forth between coasts or countries, make sure you pack an eye mask for a good night’s sleep. While it may not be your own bed, you’ll be dressed to be just as comfortable on a plane.
