Summer is a time for traveling to your favorite destinations for some much needed rest and relaxation. As if packing isn’t stressful enough, you also have to tackle the much-dreaded task of figuring out what to wear on the way to your destination. Whether you’re driving or flying to your vacation spot, you want to wear something comfortable, while still maintaining your style. Not only will you feel good when you arrive, but you’ll also look great!
Layering is key when traveling. You never know when you might get too hot or too cold, so you want layers you can add or remove to keep comfortable. A bright cardigan will add warmth and a pop of color. Keep it simple by pairing a basic white t-shirt underneath. Keep accessories simple when travelling. When going through airport security, the last thing you want is to be held up taking off piles of jewelry.

A pair of boyfriend jeans will ensure that your look is comfortable and chic. Boyfriend jeans provide a loose, worn fit, allowing you room to comfortably move around. If distressed jeans aren’t for you, there are also options in the boyfriend style that are not overly distressed.

Flat shoes are always the way to go when you’re on the move! A pair of ballet flats will provide comfort, and are an easy way to dress up your casual look. If you’re looking for more of a summery shoe, opt for a pair of flat espadrilles. For the ultimate travel shoe, Tiek’s are the way to go. These versatile flats were made for traveling, and are designed to roll up and fit in your purse. Tiek’s come in a multitude of colors and patterns, with someone for every traveling fashionista. Talk about a genius idea!

Bringing the right purse is important, especially when travelling by airplane. In the unfortunate case that your luggage gets misplaced, it’s good to carry on as many items as possible. A large, structured tote will allow plenty of space for the essentials. Most totes are also large enough to fit an iPad and even a few swimsuits.

Thanks! I don’t have any Tiek’s, but have only heard good things!
All fabulous tips! I love traveling in my boyfriend jeans – and I always carry a big scarf that can double as a blanket 🙂
The scarf is a great idea, Christy! I do that in the office, and never thought to do it when traveling. That’s going to solve my dilemma of always freezing on the plane, so thank you!
Anytime! 🙂
Great tips darling! A tote bag is a total life saver, you can fit in everything and still look super chic!
