I wouldn’t say I’m addicted to travelling, but since moving to London two years ago, I have found myself, like many fellow Brits, jumping on a plane every chance I get. In part to escape some dreary weather, but also to take advantage of London’s proximity to cities steeped in history and dreamy seaside towns just two hours away. This month alone, I’ll have been to Venice, Cappadocia and Dubrovnik, which means I’ve had to learn how to pack and dress efficiently.
Airport dressing in particular has been a challenge for many years—how does one dress comfortably, without feeling too warm or cold, whilst looking chic from departure to arrival? It’s almost an artform, really, to create a look that checks all these boxes. Many a time I’ve bumped into someone at the airport (once even on the airplane!) and wished I had on a better outfit on, or wore something I thought would be practical but in the end made passing security a nightmare. But after years of experience, I’m happy to impart what bits of wisdom I’ve collected in the hopes of making your next trips a little more less stressful and a little more stylish.
Here are the only 7 pieces you need for first class airport style. I’ve never been one to wear jeans on the plane, or anything without stretch for that matter. What I love about the strappy knit or tank dress is how comfortable it is while still being stylish enough to go straight to a dinner after the flight.
The key is to opt for one in a darker hue .
