HOLIDAY excitement ...the flight is booked, the villa is sun soaked and waiting for you ..the suitcase is out. Now begins the task of picking what to put in the suitcase and how to fit everything you want to bring in there..as well as what to wear while travelling. Rolling your clothes will serve 2 purposes, less wrinkling and clothes will take up less space. Clothes for travelling are best if they are lightweight, wrinkle resistant and versatile enough to get you through any travel disruptions but don't sacrifice style when looking for comfort on your next adventure. Don't underestimate the versatility of dresses for travel outfit ideas, comfortable and cool and easily transition to a holiday outfit.

We all want to be someone's airport crush so make a statement by embracing versatility, function and style by following these helpful tips and insights.

 

Depending what level of organisation you favour, but a handy little idea is to create a photo log of your planned outfits, pairing accessories with each holiday outfit so you know exactly what you had planned to wear with what!

  • • Destination friendly, where you are going and what you will do there
  • • Footwear, slip on shoes (Think Airport Security!)
  • • Accessorize...a crossbody bag will keep those hands free.
  • • Be practical. You don’t need 20 outfits for a 7-day trip!

Comfort is key


There is nothing nicer than a soft cotton t-shirt for travelling in, but once you reach that destination any cotton items have lots of cons, they will keep every wrinkle, soak up every drop of sun cream, hold onto it for dear life and then refuse to dry! Similarly with linen, leave this exclusively for when you arrive at the destination as linen is a perfect summer holiday option with its breathability. So, think about other travel friendly fabrics like viscose. Viscose is a semi synthetic fabric, has a very soft feel, it is also very breathable, so it is cool and stylish for summer wear and all this makes it a perfect travel outfit option. Wide leg trousers are a big trend for 2023 and are the perfect travel companion for comfort and style.

Layering


Airport or travel outfit success depend heavily on layering, especially when moving from one vehicle to another. When the aeroplane or train cabin temperature drops always have options to combat the chill. A versatile oversized longline cardigan will double up as a blanket for and nap possibilities and are perfect for throwing over your shoulders as temperatures drop on holiday evenings. A shirt that can be work over a vest top or dress gives you outfit options. A denim jacket thrown over your shoulders will finish an outfit and add a layer of warmth when needed.

Oversized


Nothing is more comfortable when thinking about travelling long or short haul than oversized fits in tops , trousers , and blazers, this very on trend style lends itself perfectly to travel outfits ideas. Here are some simple tips on how to wear this style for all figures so you look seamless and put together.

• Pair an oversized top with fitted bottoms.

Accessories


Its all about the additions when travelling, keep your accessories and travel luggage minimal. A 4 wheel travel suitcase is a must for east airport transfer, packing cubes are a new revolutionary and really help to get the most from the space. A weekend bag will hold lots of travel essentials. And still fit in the airport bag size checker!  Simple jewellery that wont be ruined by sun lotion is key, or a devastation if lost. Some simple earrings to elevate an evening outfit and lightweight necklaces for daytime. Holidays are always the time to pick up some cute summer jewellery. Jewellery organisers are a very easy way to transport and organise your jewellery when you travel. And keep those eyes protected with UV protection sunglasses.

Just In Case


Every travellers worst nightmare and increasingly on the rise due to labour shortages around the globe, is the suitcase not making it to the same destination as you. So pack your carry on bag with this eventuality in mind. A pair of leggings rolled up with a basic top will see you through a couple of days. The extra travel layer will keep you cosy and the shoes you choose for travelling in need to be versatile enough to get you from beach to bar until you get the suitcase back or hit the shops to replace.
