Comfy yet stylish travel outfit?

Do you own any Rachel Pally type jersey dresses?

I used to wear Juicy hoodies and stretch jeans on planes, but now I swear by Rachel Pally for airline wear...it looks so much more put together than a Juicy sweatsuit and you could absolutely wear it out to dinner or sightseeing directly off the plane. They're also so ridiculously comfy that I wear my dresses as house dresses and on occasion, sleepwear.

i.e.

Ella Moss and Velvet make similar type dresses. Also, Forever 21 is likely to have a lower-price version if you don't plan on wearing it much.

I always wear ballet slippers in winter and sandals in summer with these dresses.

HTH!!!

I personally dislike Juicy anything. But that's just me, so if it works for you, then go for it.

I like to look a little more dressed up for travel. I will usually wear a pair of pants (often black) in a wrinkle-resistant fabric. A nice tee or tank will work in warmer weather, or a thin-knit sweater in cooler weather. I will wear wedges or sandals, depending, and I always layer - esp. this time of year. I get cold easily, so I will bring a cardigan sweater or a l/s pullover to wear over a tee if necessary. And I bring my pashmina because it's the best blanket ever. :)

Really, how I dress for travel isn't that different for how I dress normally...I just try to make sure my travel items are very wrinkle-resistant, since I do a lot of sitting on those long flights!

I know, Juicy isn't my normal style. It's a long overnight flight to London so I need something I can cozy up and sleep in rather than something more dressy.

Collette · Chanel

Since I'm usually traveling some place warm I wear layers on planes

Typically my most comfortable pair of jeans which are my Joe's Muse jeans

A tee or tank by splendid or something similar because they are so comfy

For shoes I do either Cole Haan Nike Air heels since they are so comfy

or

and then I usually throw on an oversized/drapey cashmere cardigan or wrap to make it look like an outfit

FashionPrincess · Hermes

I would wear a short sleeve tee and a oversized cardi like Collete suggested and then pants like these:

slow lane pants sun salutation pants matey pants

And then some ballet flats or cute comfy sneakers like Pumas. Hope you have a fun trip!

i usually do the same as Collette too. unless you're leaving at 3:00am like i did today in order to be at the airport 2 hours prior to your 6 am international flight... that is taking off 45 minutes late!!!!

sorry i had to rant. but the outfit Collette suggested is my favorite!
