When it comes to going on holiday, we put a lot of thought and effort into the clothes we pack into our suitcases. However, just as much effort needs to be put into our airport outfits too. After all, there is nothing worse than sitting on a plane for hours on end wearing uncomfortable jeans that are digging into your sides, is there? Airport wear is all about finding the perfect balance between style and comfort. Read on to discover how to do it right.

Dress in comfortable layers

The number one rule when it comes to dressing for the airport is to wear layers. This enables you to easily add or remove a garment as you see fit. After all, you know that the weather probably isn’t going to be great here in the UK. If you’re arriving somewhere sunny, you won’t want to keep your thick layers on. Plus, you never know what the temperature is going to be like while you’re up in the air. Some flights can be very cold. Layers, therefore, provide the perfect solution, ensuring you are nice and comfy no matter the temperature. You can check out ethical clothing online to find some beautifully layered pieces. From sweatshirts and T-shirts to hoodies, there are lots of great clothes that are comfortable but ethical at the same time. It’s also a good idea to stay away from jeans, as they can often get uncomfortable after a while.

Always prioritise comfort when it comes to footwear

There is no place for high heels on a plane. Yes, you may have seen your favourite celebrity walk out of the airport wearing the highest heels imaginable, and you want to emulate this. The reality is, though, that said celebrity probably has someone else carrying all of her luggage for her. She’s also probably only changed into those heels for the paparazzi. We don’t all have this luxury, so stick with flats. Plus, there are plenty of cute options when it comes to flat footwear, from ankle boots to slip-on loafers. 

Keep your makeup simple

Another tip is to make sure you keep your makeup simple. There is nothing worse than falling asleep on a plane only to wake up and have eyeliner and mascara everywhere. There is nothing cute about looking like a raccoon! All you need is your trusty lip balm and very suitable makeup. This doesn’t mean you need to look plain and boring, though. You can add personality with a slogan t-shirt or shirt rather than statement lipstick. 

Up your accessories game

The final piece of the puzzle is to up your accessories game. Yes, big sunglasses and a big floppy hat mean you’re going to need to remove a few more things while you’re going through airport security, but it is certainly worth it. You can turn a plain and simple outfit into a magazine-worthy ensemble with a few careful accessories. 

So there you have it; the four keys to airport-style success!
