Traveling is a normal activity for many women, and the days of throwing on your old volleyball sweater and sweats are long over. I have found some necessities for travel that allow maximum comfort and style.
Going to the airport has become a huge hassle, especially with security now. Lets face it, they make you unpack and undress. So you really need to wear something that goes beyond comfort and allows you maximum easiness and accessibility.
Fitted Knit Leggings, $8.50 from Forever 21
These are a great idea to wear in the airport. They are fitted to give you a put together look but also stretchy to allow maximum comfort.
MATISSE Evelyn Ballet Flats, $49.99 from Lord & Taylor
These flats allow comfort and ease when going through security and walking through the airport. The tweed also gives a very stylish flair to any outfit.
Last but not least, an accessory that you won’t have to take off in security. Essie has a new fall line, one which is perfectly named “Carry On.” A perfect burnt, cranberry tone that will dress you up and get you ready for any flight.
What else do you like to wear when traveling?

Maxi dresses are my go-to option for flying. I just throw a sweater or long cardigan over and pair it with flats and tights in the winter. Perfect and comfy!

I wear the comfiest pair of jeans I have and a comfy t-shirt. I bring a sweatshirt along if it’s cold. However, since the bulk of my flying experience was when I was younger and I haven’t flown in a while, what I wear when I fly in December will probably be a lot different. I’ll probably wear leggings and a sweater.

Jeans, t-shirt, cardigan, and easy-slip-on/off shoes. Tada!

LOL @ “allows you maximum easiness and accessibility”.

Next time I go to Florida/somewhere warm when it’s cold in the Northeast, I’m wearing baggy sweatpants with shorts underneath so I can just take them off when I land. lol

Do people really get that bothered about what will be comfortable on a plane? I’ve never flown on a commercial plane, so this hasn’t been an issue yet. I can’t imagine I’d alter my normal clothes just because I’ll be on a plane for a bit. I like to look nice. I don’t buy things that make me too uncomfortable. So I guess I won’t have to worry when I do get to travel by plane someday.

I’d probably wear a jersey dress or a jersey skirt. I never understood how girls think that pants are easier…there’s nothing easier than a dress, especially if it’s jersey or some sort of stretchy cotton A complete outfit in one article of clothing! Bring a cardigan if you get cold. For 10+ hour flights to countries faraway, I’d suggest sweatpants…no one really cares on the flight after the 5th hour or so anyway.
I did get some yoga pants/leggings pretty recently from Forever 21 and I am IN LOVE with them. The foldover waist makes them super comfortable, but they look like leggings from the waist down. They’re also pretty opaque and they don’t fall down then you walk like leggings usually do for me. Currently, they’re out of stock online, but I found some at my local store.
