How to look awesome when traveling
Jet-setting somewhere fun for Memorial day this year? Just
looking to stay comfy on your next business trip? There is an art to staying
fashionable yet comfy while traveling, and here’s how it’s done!
For starters, it’s all about the choosing clothes with the
right fabric. Tight, constricting jeans will leave you feeling uncomfortable
and antsy, especially if you’re stuck in the middle seat on a long airplane
ride. For maximum comfort, try a looser fitting pair of boyfriend jeans or slacks
to ensure a more pleasant travel experience.
Another pro tip is to always remember to bring a sweater.
Because airplanes have pretty drastic temperature changes, it’s always best to
have that sweater for a little extra warmth when needed. Make sure it’s
lightweight and easy to carry-on. Think cashmere over chunky-knit.
Now this one might be a no-brainer, but wear comfortable
shoes that are easy to take on and off. No one likes that person who holds up
the security line because they are taking forever to take their shoes off! Go
for ballet flats or sandals; both are easy to slip on and off.
Finally, choose one fashion piece to tie your look together.
Maybe it’s a fedora hat that dresses up your pair of black leggings, or maybe
it’s a statement necklace that jazzes up your basic sundress (just make sure
the necklace isn’t made of metal!) Whatever it is, stay stylish with your
favorite accessory, and show your fellow travelers that you CAN be well
dressed while traveling.

Minimalist Resurrection
By now, I’d say that it's probably very safe to say that '90s style is
sticking around. So, it may not be such a terrible idea to incorporate a piece
or two from the pre-aught decade into your wardrobe (if you haven't done it already).
The latest '90s trend to resurface, you ask? The slip dress, of course! The Spaghetti-strap
dresses have had a grown-up makeover in beautiful and expensive fabrics; this
effortless, sultry, and slightly grungy frock works just as well for lounging
as it does for gallivanting about town.
While that’s all well and good for the waif, for us real women, the
insubstantial dress begs further inquiry. Specifically: how do you wear a slip
dress without looking like you just stepped out of your boudoir? If you feel
slightly exposed in spaghetti straps like I do, feel free to add some layers on
top of your slip dress. You’ll still get a peek of the slinky frock, but feel
substantially more confident, which is the key to pulling off the look. Pay
attention to a couple easy secrets to look amazing on this slinky number, so
you’ll be slipping into something more
comfortable in no time:
Tip 1: Tone down The Provocative Vibe. Feel out its vibe and then balance it with
styling pieces that have an opposing feel. For example, try to temper the
revealing slip with grunge essentials like a slouchy mohair cardigan and a
plaid flannel.
Tip 2: Say Yes To Sophistication. I love how the filmy frock looks when styled
with a sharp tuxedo coat and classic pumps for a polished effect. Opting for an
elegant spin also keeps the lingerie-looking dress from entering hussy
territory.
