When it comes to travel, we know you need to find the perfect balance between comfort and style. After all, it’s great to look put together while hopping on a flight, but not at the cost of your comfort—especially on long-haul trips. Rest assured, we've curated a list of wardrobe essentials to achieve flawless travel and airport outfits, whether you are exploring a new destination for business or pleasure.

When it comes to the best travel outfits for women, accessories play a critical role in keeping you comfy and organized. All you have to do is remember a comfortable pair of shoes , compression socks to keep things moving, an eye mask that's an upgrade from the one the airline provides, and a chic shawl that doubles as a blanket. And of course, no travel outfit would be complete without a fashionable (and functional!) carry-on bag on your arm or atop your luggage . This bag should house all of your essentials and still level up your airport outfit. Keep reading for some of the best travel and airport outfit ideas your next trip.

Missky Long-Sleeved Oversize Pant Set

Long-Sleeved Oversize Pant Set

You might look like you're already on vacation if you show up to the airport in this neutral pants and button-down set. Available in two bright and two neutral colors, and sizes small to 2XL.

Spanx AirEssentials Wide-Leg Pants

AirEssentials Wide-Leg Pants

Sometimes nothing less than sweats will do, and here is where Spanx really excels. Oprah picked these for her 2022 Favorite Things , saying, “You might know Spanx for its shapewear, but it also does fantastic cozy clothes. When I tell you this set feels light as air, I’m not kidding. It’s my new leisure suit. The perfectly loose-and-lightweight fabric is like buttah!”

Vuori Elevation Trouser in Midnight Heather

Elevation Trouser in Midnight Heather

Vuori is celebrated for its super-cozy pieces. The best thing about these pants? They look put together while the stretch-knit fabric is as comfy as your favorite Vuori loungers. The high-rise waist and loose fit of the leg give you an effortlessly stylish silhouette.

Girlfriend Collective Compressive Pocket Legging

Compressive Pocket Legging

Leggings are a perfect choice for traveling wear. And these have Oprah's seal of approval, as they were picked for Oprah's 2022 Favorite Things list. Eco-friendly and size-inclusive (the range goes through 6XL), these compression leggings are available in a plethora of hues. Plus, they feature double-side seaming and pockets.

Dr. Scholl's Time Off Platform Sneakers

Time Off Platform Sneakers

Celebrated for their consciously comfortable footwear, these sneakers from Dr. Scholl's are tricked out with tons of features for all-day comfort. Inside, anatomical cushioning and arch support keep you covered while a lightweight, anti-slip platform sole protects on the outside. This minimalist sneaker looks just as good with a matching suit as it does a low-key sweat set.

Chico's Travelers No Tummy Pants

Travelers No Tummy Pants

Chico's Travelers collection is made from wrinkle-resistant fabrics in comfortable silhouettes. Thanks to a pull-on waist and front darts, these No Tummy Pants are flattering and always look put together. If red isn't your vibe, they come in three other colors as well as the bestselling wide-leg Hutton pants in black.

J. Crew Cashmere-Wool Travel Wrap

Cashmere-Wool Travel Wrap

Let's be honest, you can't always count on the airline's blankets to keep you warm, and some even leave annoying fluff behind. Stay warm and stylish with your own wearable blanket by way of this travel necessity from J. Crew that comes in eight different colors.

Athleta Everlasting Button-Down Top

Everlasting Button-Down Top

A classic button-down is a travel essential that elevates any in-transit look. Athleta's Everlasting button-down has all the details you need: a lightweight, odor-control stretch fabric and longer length for coverage. Luckily, you can cover all your neutral bases with navy, black, and white. Plus, it comes in an extended range of sizes from XXS to 3X.

Spanx Perfect Pant High-Rise Flare

Perfect Pant High-Rise Flare

The perfect pant does not exist—wait, yes it does, and here it is. This high-rise flare option is designed with premium ponte fabric and a comfortable pull-on design for maximum comfort and easy styling on your flight. Plus, it comes in size XS to 3X, so there's something for everyone.

32º DEGREES Lightweight Recycled Poly-Fill Shirt Jacket

Lightweight Recycled Poly-Fill Shirt Jacket

Sometimes a full on coat is not needed for travel, but you can never be quite sure of the weather. That's why a a little packable shacket—part shirt, part jacket—comes in. In black, olive green, or dark blue, the jacket will be your go-to for travel. Keep in mind, it runs slightly big in order to allow for comfortable layering of hoodies or sweaters underneath. There's a reason why Oprah tapped it on her Favorite Things list .

Hoka Transport GTX Sneakers

Transport GTX Sneakers

Hoka's sneakers are cult Oprah Daily office favorites and podiatrist-approved . Not only do they look good with just about everything, but the Transport GTX also offer quick-toggle lacing for an easy on-off, as well as a full-length EVA midsole for the highest level of cushioning and arch support.

Spanx Women's AirEssentials 1/2 Zip Sweater

Women's AirEssentials 1/2 Zip Sweater

Sometimes nothing less than sweats will do, and here is where Spanx really excels. Oprah picked this top for her 2023 Favorite Things , saying, “Wow. Wow. Wow. May I tell you I got this set last year? I wore it in a photo shoot for O Quarterly and never looked back...” Why not pair it with the coordinating wide-leg pants for a full sweatsuit?

Dr. Motion Compression Socks with Enhanced Cushioning (3 Pack)

Compression Socks with Enhanced Cushioning (3 Pack)

Compression socks are always a good ideal for traveling. We recommend these styles from Dr. Motion that offer graduated compression of 8 to 15 mmHg while providing arch support. Unlike other socks that can feel scratchy or clammy, these are soft, moisture-wicking, and subtly cushioned.

Original Puffer Hug Scarf

Original Puffer Hug Scarf

If you're traveling for business to a location that you're not thrilled about, chances are you are in need of a hug. Don't worry, this puffer hug scarf doubles as a warm wrap to keep you cozy and a hug to make you feel loved. It's fleece-lined with deep pockets so you can also store your ID and credit card without any issues.

Frankie 4 Triple Layered-Support and Cushion Liberty Black Boots

Triple Layered-Support and Cushion Liberty Black Boots

If it's not on your radar yet, Frankie 4 is a podiatrist-designed and female-founded shoe line that offers insanely comfortable footwear. These are the perfect black boots to run around the airport and to wear on your trip as your professional or going out shoes.

Everlane Organic Cotton Honeycomb Cardigan

Organic Cotton Honeycomb Cardigan

This gorgeous honeycomb cotton cardigan is part of the latest iteration of Everlane Editions: The Art of Spring Layering. Crafted from responsibly sourced and lower-impact materials, this 100 percent organic cotton knit is ideal for layering before, during, and after your flight.

JW PEI Aylin Canvas Cellphone Crossbody Bag

Aylin Canvas Cellphone Crossbody Bag

Making sure you have all your essentials when going through airport security can be tough, but with this crossbody, you'll have your phone and cards right at hand.

Naadam Original 100 Percent Cashmere Sweater

Original 100 Percent Cashmere Sweater

Warm, soft, and chic—few things are as reliable as a plain cashmere sweater. At under $100, Naadam's perfect crewneck comes in core and limited-edition hues. Pro tip: Order a size or two larger than your usual for an ultra-cozy fit. And what's more, the sweater is machine-washable (yes, you read that right).

K. Carroll Accessories Taylor Tote Red

Taylor Tote Red

These vegan suede totes are great for hauling all your in-flight essentials, with plenty of room. There are a range of colors to choose from. "Not too big or too small, this vegan suede tote is just the right size for your on-the-go loved one in need of a stylish solution," Oprah said when highlighting the Taylor tote on her 2022 Favorite Things list.

Asutra Silk Eye Mask & Pillow

Silk Eye Mask & Pillow

Oprah chose this eye mask for her 2023 Favorite Things list. "Sleeping with a mask is life-changing—I cannot tell you how much the quality of my sleep has improved," she said. "This weighted 100 percent silk one stays down and doesn’t let even a pinch of light in.” Co-owned by superstar Venus Williams, Asustra produces eye pillows that are filled with lavender and flax. Whether you want to meditate or snooze during your flight, this adjustable mask will definitely relax you.

These travel outfit ideas include plenty of wardrobe essentials you'll use while at home or away anyway. Think: the best joggers , high-waisted leggings , loungewear sets , and a go-to tee you'll want to wear every single day. There are great straight-to-the-office outfits, too, if you're headed right to a meeting from the airport. Of course, we also included travel must-haves like compression socks and a silk sleep mask for long plane rides.

Everything here can easily be rolled up and tucked into a bag, too. Maybe you don't need that wrap in the warm weather outside, but you'll step inside to the freezing cold air conditioning and thank yourself for being prepared. No matter where you go, remember that life is all about the journey, not the destination. You might as well look and feel good all the while. So grab these smart travel outfit ideas and bon voyage! ✈️

These rank at the top of best jogger lists because they truly are that comfortable. The fabric is super soft and the semi-relaxed fit lets you move around with ease. With over a dozen colors to choose from, you can go basic with black or gray or pick your favorite color. Either way, you'll never want to take them off.

This tee is a one-size-fits-most powerhouse. It's oversized without looking sloppy and has comfy 3/4-length sleeves and high side slits for a fashionable touch. The 100% cotton slub fabric is airy and light, making it perfect for wearing loose, tucked in at the front, or knotted at the hip. You'll want one in every color!

If you tend to get a little chilly when the air conditioning hits, you need something to lay over your shoulders and arms. Enter: this stunning cashmere and silk blend scarf! You can wear it as is, draped over your outfit, or as a scarf under a jacket.

If you need an extra layer but prefer sleeves, go with an open cardigan style. This wrap is made of breathable, stretchy fabric and it has pockets! It also comes in over a dozen colors and is available in sizes XXS to 3X in regular, petite, and tall lengths.

You can absolutely splurge on an expensive pair of leggings if you live for that kind of comfort. But when Amazon has a buttery soft pair for under $25, that means you can buy an extra one for when you get to where you're going, too. With over 20 color options, you'll have plenty of outfits to coordinate.

The great thing about a dress is you can go straight to the beach or brunch as soon as you arrive to your destination. This one is made of a soft jersey knit blend with a tie waist that you can make as tight or as loose as you want. The fabric also has UPF protection so you really can wear it straight to the sand!

A casual look just isn't quite complete without a go-to hoodie. Reformation offers an oversized yet stylish option, available in a neutral almond shade and basic black. It pairs perfectly with their boyfriend sweatpant for a matching set, but will also go with everything you have in your closet.

If you want to buy a matching set to coordinate, this option makes the list of best loungewear because of the 17,000-plus reviews, 25-plus color options, and soft, stretchy fabric. Tuck in the front of the top and scrunch up the cuffs on the bottom a little bit for a super trendy look.

Oh, you want more matching stuff, you say? How about this four-piece set? It comes with super soft cotton/modal blend reversible tank, turtleneck tunic, pants, and a duster. You'll also get a travel pouch to hold them all...so it's actually a five-piece set!

Sometimes the problem with traveling from one place to another is the drastic change in the weather. Go prepared with a packable jacket. This bestseller is water-resistant, has a hood, and wraps into a tiny little pouch for easy storage. It's also available in ten other colors!

Dr. Scholl's Knee-High Compression Socks

Dr. Scholl's Knee-High Compression Socks

If you're getting on a plane, compression socks will work wonders for your circulation, especially on long trips. The mild compression keeps them comfortable on your calves, so you don't feel like you're wearing a medical device. They also keep your feet comfy if you've got to trek through the airport.

The Perfect Pant

The Perfect Pant

Does the perfect pant exist? Spanx sure thinks so! This high-waisted flare has four-way stretch, hidden shaping technology, and doesn't have a pesky zipper or button. Just pull them on and you're ready to go from travel to meeting in no time. Oh, and they are machine washable, too.

Untuckit Button-Down Shirt

Untuckit Button-Down Shirt

If you need a dress shirt to go with your pants, look no further than this wrinkle-free, stretch cotton button-down. It also features button placement that avoids those dreaded open gaps you might get on other shirts.

Kizik Lima Sneaker

Kizik Lima Sneaker

With extra cushy foam outsoles and a breathable knit construction, you'll be able to wear these everywhere from errands to travel to checking out the sights on vacation. The best part? Though they have laces, they are actually slip-on shoes!

Silk Sleep Mask

Silk Sleep Mask

Catching some z's is tough when you're en route. Block out the light in comfort with a silk sleep mask. Not only will it give your eyes a rest, but silk does wonders for your skin. So, you don't have to worry about weird creases on your face when you wake up.

I Travel 5 Times a Year—These Easy Outfits Have Never Once Failed Me

Lauren Adhav

As a semi-recent  Los Angeles transplant, I've made so many travel plans over the past two years to take advantage of my new West Coast life, whether it's an international flight to  Tokyo or multiday road trip to Sea Ranch, just north of San Francisco. And when I was living in New York City, a quick four-day trip across the Atlantic to  London or  Paris felt like a breeze. Then there are the long-haul flights I've done from L.A. to Monte Carlo and from Orlando to Hong Kong that take up to a full day of travel. And I've done all this with just a carry-on , mind you, so it's safe to say that I'm kind of a travel and packing expert. This is why I rounded up 20 of the best travel outfits if you're sitting on a plane, in a car, or walking 10 miles in a day to explore your vacation destination. 

In theory, your vacations are filled with a never-ending supply of chic new outfits that are more than deserving of a few Instagrams, but the reality is that your  travel outfits need to be equal parts stylish  and  comfortable. Yes, achieving that balance is possible, and we have the stylish looks of the below fashion girls to prove that looking good and dressing functionally can coexist. 

From roomy jeans and breezy dresses to versatile boots and bold sneakers that can withstand any mileage, scroll down for 20 travel outfits you'll want to copy for any upcoming out-of-office dates. 

Coat + White Tee + Jeans

Ogling this Rimowa suitcase situation. But a shaggy jacket and unique jeans will dress up any white tee. 

Shop the key pieces:

Jacket + Bold Sneakers + Comfy Pants

Comfortable pants and shoes are key whether you're on a plane or walking 10,000+ steps, but they don't have to feel drab. Add pops of color with your accessories. 

Matching Sweatsuit + Sneakers

A matching sweatsuit is a must in any wardrobe. With a fashionable pair of sneakers, you can wear it both on and off the plane. 

Quarter-Zip Sweater + Long Coat

Bundle up in a monochrome 'fit like this cream quarter-zip and coordinating coat. Finish it off by adding bottoms with stretch and a trusty pair of shoes. 

Bomber Jacket + Jeans + Shoulder Bag

For a day in a new city where you're constantly moving, it's best to stick to the basics like a roomy shoulder bag, your go-to pair of jeans, and a zip-up jacket for transitional temps. 

Leggings + Oversize Sweater

There's something about gray that makes any outfit look so much more comfortable. Throw on a cream sweater with your gray leggings for some contrast. Then put on your headphones so no one bothers you while you're waiting to board. 

Track Pants + Statement Coat + Flats

Track pants are a staple that can look dressy given the right styling. Take a cue from Helena and add the one statement coat you packed this trip with a pair of sporty bottoms.

Jumpsuit + Big Tote 

A one-and-done kind of outfit is ideal for travel. When you have a jam-packed day that starts when the sun rises, you don't want to waste any time picking out what to wear. This is where a jumpsuit or boilersuit comes in handy. 

Midi Skirt + Crossbody Bag + Sweater

A crossbody you can keep close to you will ensure your belongings are secure on public transportation. An A-line skirt, a sweater, and statement kicks complete the look.

Flowy Top + Wide-Leg Jeans + Flats

I tend to turn to less-fitted silhouettes on vacay to keep things easy and effortless. A flowy top and wide-leg jeans are just the solution. 

Maxi Skirt + Knit Polo

For an ensemble that looks pulled together but actually takes five minutes to put on, a knit polo and maxi skirt are all you need. Add your crossbody or top-handle bag to really level things up. 

Breezy Pants + White Button-Down

Don't deny yourself roomy silhouettes! This is the kind of outfit that can take you off the plane and straight to lunch if you don't have time to decompress and change outfits at your hotel. 

Quilted Coat + Shoulder Bag + Chunky Sneakers

A coat that doubles as a blanket and/or a pillow on the plane and one you can wear on the daily is a great travel piece if you're heading somewhere chilly. Pack a pair of chunky dad sneakers and a shoulder bag, and you're ready for a day of exploring. 

Jacket + Plaid Skirt + Sneakers

Going somewhere with pretty mild weather? Opt for plaid skirt and sneakers. You can add a bomber in this rich brown shade if the temperature fluctuates. 

Knit Sweater + Jeans + Bold Accessories

A cozy sweater, straight-leg jeans, and red accessories are an outfit formula you'll want to remember. And definitely make sure to stop by a café while you're out to fuel up before you hit the pavement again. 

Wrap Coat + Comfortable Boots

Rainy weather won't get you down if you have a fab coat to stay dry in. A trench or raincoat is a must if it's a rainy forecast during your travels, but you can liven it up with bright footwear. 

Coat + Sneakers + Baggy Jeans 

Layer up with a scarf and beanie if your long coat isn't enough to keep you warm. Layering pieces that can go with several outfits are always great to pack, and as someone who lives in sunny Los Angeles, I now relish the trips where I can finally pack my versatile winter clothes. 

Track Jacket + Comfy Jeans

I've worn Adidas shorts on so many trips now, and I've found that sporty pieces are the best to pack. They are durable, made to withstand the elements, and come in handy when you start sweating from all those steps you're getting in. A track jacket is a great piece to wear over a T-shirt or tank. Simply add some fun jeans and a colorful bag, and you'll feel like a street style star wherever you are. 

White Blouse + Black Maxi + Sneakers

A sheer white top is a godsend for those extremely hot travel days. Also, I've worn this black cotton maxi skirt on countless trips. It's one of the best travel items I own thanks to the breezy fit and elastic waist. 

Cutout Dress + Sandals + Net Bag

If it's more of a beach vacation, you definitely want to travel with some comfortable sandals and a larger tote that can fit all your beach-day belongings. I find that these net bags fold very flat in a suitcase, but they can fit a seemingly endless amount. 

Lauren Adhav is a freelance fashion editor based in Los Angeles. Originally from Orlando, Florida, she always wanted to work at a fashion magazine. After finally getting an internship at Town & Country in 2015, she moved to New York City and continued to get her footing in the industry with stints at Cosmopolitan , W magazine, Harper's Bazaar , and Moda Operandi. In 2017, she returned to Cosmo full time, starting off as the beauty and fashion editorial assistant and working her way to fashion editor. She contributed to both the website and print issues, pitching new ideas, forecasting trends, covering red carpet events, and informing the overall coverage and brand voice. After five years in NYC, she moved to the West Coast for the sunshine and the change of pace. As a freelance fashion editor, she still contributes to Cosmo and now Who What Wear. She's always trying to get ahead of the next big trend before it goes mainstream and loves discovering fashion brands with a unique point of view (Chopova Lowena, Sandy Liang, and Bode being some of her current favorites). She also spends an unhealthy amount of time online shopping for the perfect piece, and now that she's in L.A., she's rediscovering her soft spot for malls. On the weekends, you can find her walking around the Silver Lake Reservoir, trying to catch up on her tan at Venice Beach, and probably ordering a Chinese chicken salad at Joan's on Third.

8 Comfy-Chic Travel Outfit Ideas, According to Beyoncé’s Stylist

These looks are straight fire.

beyonce bodysuit and skirt outfit

Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy.

Whether you’re headed on a short or long journey, there are a few key tenants to remember when assembling these looks: “Always think breathable and forgiving fabrics,” says stylist KJ Moody , the mastermind behind some of Beyonce’s most standout ensembles and has also worked with stars like Chloë Bailey and Kelly Rowland. “I recommend linen, cashmere, and cotton pieces, as they pack well and are easy and cozy to wear.”

Also, keep in mind the purpose and destination of your trip. Although appearing put-together is always key, the outfit you wear en route to a European baecation may be slightly different from the one you sport for a more casual trip on the homefront. “International travel tends to call for extra excitement and flair,” Moody notes.

As far as some styles to avoid? “Anything too tight, too loose, too long, or too revealing, which can cause problems when in close quarters on planes, trains, and automobiles,” Moody says. “Unless you’re flying first class or via private plane, you may, unfortunately, end up touching the stranger next to you because you both decided to wear short shorts .”

Without further ado, keep scrolling to shop Moody’s favorite travel outfit ideas inspired by celebrity looks. No matter where you’re headed and or what your personal style is, these are perfect for a range of occasions and aesthetics.

Bodysuit, Stretchy Skirt and Fanny Pack

For a trip from New York City to The Hamptons last summer, Moody dressed Beyoncé in an Area orange bodysuit (now sold out online) and a pink skirt. “This outfit was perfect because it provided a great fit with just enough stretch,” he says. “It was sexy-meets-comfortable.” Emulate the look and accessorize with a pair of artsy earrings (Queen Bey’s are from Schiaparelli) and a colorful fanny pack (the Renaissance artist rocks Anima Iris’ Zaza Raspberry version) to keep your passport and small essentials handy.

A cozy sweatsuit is a closet staple and translates well for all your travel needs. Instead of going neutral, follow Selena Gomez’s lead and choose a bold orange getup for a fun pop of color, then balance it out with crisp white sneakers. Moody also suggests styling a mint green jumpsuit with matching Nike dunks.

Sometimes, you have to head straight to an event post-travel.

He loves Bella +Canvas’ cozy, affordable style, as well as Marine Serre’s Moon-Print one-piece and matching sock booties to create the ultimate svelte look (Bey herself sported the latter pairing from her private jet to an NBA game). Add on a spherical, basketball-inspired bag for extra style points, Moody advises.

Neutral Colored

Neutral Colored

That is stylish travel. Neutral colors such as camel, beige, black, or white should be your main choices for travel outfits. These hues are versatile, still very elegant, and perfect for your trips.

Peachy Suit

The suit in lovely peach color might not be your first choice when it comes to traveling. However, this blogger shows us how we can rock it! Pair it with sneakers in the same shade, and finish everything off with oversized sunglasses.

Layered Look

Sometimes, the most crucial thing with travel outfits is layering. Many pieces won’t make you feel discomfort. On the contrary, you will have more choice, and the weather shouldn’t surprise you. Don’t forget to wear comfy dad’s sneakers.

Statement Boots

Statement Boots

Snakeskin boots seem like an unusual choice for the airport. However, some girls want to look fashionable wherever they go. Combine high boots with a long coat and an olive green dress. That is how you will be ready for the party, the moment you land.

Fanny Pack and Jeans

Since they came back to fashion, fanny packs, as well as belt bags, became one of the most stylish items among bloggers and It-girls. They are quite practical for traveling since you can always have your items close.

Stylish travel clothes for women that are chic AND comfortable

by Sylvia | Mar 11, 2023 | 9 comments

No matter whether you are travelling by air, land or sea, you will want to look effortlessly chic while ensuring you are comfortable throughout your entire journey. Below, you will find the best travel clothes for women and outfit inspiration for all of your trips, whether you’re taking a quick road trip or a long haul vacation.

I know that travel is still harder at the moment, but more and more of the world is opening up. Many of us can’t wait to travel again, even if you do have lots of forms to fill in. If you are going on a trip soon, read on for a travel capsule as well as the best airport outfits.

Travel clothes for women

I normally travel a lot and love to share some of my tips on how to build the perfect fashionable travel wardrobe to make fashionable travel easy.

I believe that dressing in a stylish way for travel is just as comfortable and easy as flying in an old t-shirt and cargo pants or sweats.

But one of these two options makes a better first impression! Don’t worry, I’m not asking you to wear anything too fussy or high maintenance.

In fact in the image below I’m wearing a t-shirt and pants, but I’ve elevated my style through the print on my top and by adding silver shoes.

stylish travel clothes for women | 40plusstyle.com

I’m wearing comfy airy pants (similar here and here ) and I make the outfit more stylish with Rollies shoes ( similar pair here ).

When it’s a bit cooler I will add a short stylish jacket too in stretch fabric like this one .

Travel clothes for women: best travel outfits

You may consider getting a few designated travel outfits. Investing in stylish travel clothes for women can help you to put together a “stylish travel clothes uniform”. You’ll also find your travel outfits work well for day-to-day wear and running errands.

Before you build the perfect women’s travel wardrobe for your needs, consider these 3 points below when choosing your own signature travel outfits:

Best travel outfits for planes

1. fabrics for traveling.

The material of your clothing makes all the difference in the world when choosing travel clothes for women! Natural fibers like cotton and linen wrinkle easily, so you may wish to avoid wearing 100% linen or cotton fabrics if that bothers you. The best wrinkle-resistant fabric options include:

  • Polyester (although you may wish to consider whether you will be too hot as this doesn’t breathe)

A blend of any of these with a natural fiber like cotton would be perfect, giving you the stretch you need for long period of sitting while still looking crisp.

Greetje @no_fear_of_fashion above (read her style interview here ) wears an outfit that you could wear on the plane, and then for sightseeing.

Steal her look with this similar top , trousers , sneakers , tote , belt and scarf .

2. The best fit for your travel wear

Loose fitting, easy tailoring is the best choice when traveling, especially regarding your pants or bottoms of choice.

You don’t want to deal with tight, constricting pants when you’re in a small cabin for a few hours.

Choosing materials with some stretch to them further adds to your comfort level. Eileen Fisher is a wonderful source for travel clothes!

3. What to wear when traveling – Color

Go with patterns or darker tones when traveling.

You’re likely to be crammed into a public seat that may not be 100% clean. And coffee spills from those wobbly tray tables happen.

If you’re traveling to a foreign country, darker or earthy, neutral colors help you blend in and look more low-key, too. Save the white clothes for when you get there.

Travel clothes for women: must-haves all stylish ladies should travel with

Now that you’re thinking about the best travel clothes for women, below are some of the best options for pants, tops, dresses, skirts, shoes and accessories to choose from this season, as well as a travel capsule wardrobe.

1. The best travel purse ever

Let’s start with your bag. Your carry-on purse for travel needs to hold more than you normally would carry.

Documents, valuables, your iPad or some magazines and maybe a small makeup kit are some things you should have in your bag.

A tote is great for travel because it’s so easy to load up. But a crossbody bag is also excellent, especially for keeping it secure when you need your hands free for other things.

Safety and security will be a key priority when you travel. You want to make sure that even if you are in busy markets or in places where pick pocketing may be a problem, that your belongings are secure.

The Travelon brand is highly recommended for travel bags with anti-theft features. This one below comes in a range of colors, from classic neutrals to stripes.

Or, you could try the SUKRY crossbody (below), which comes in a good choice of colors, and has an anti-theft design. Reviewers say it is the perfect size and weight for travel.

2. Travel scarf or shawl

A scarf or shawl ALWAYS travels with me, even in summer. Airlines don’t hand out blankets or pillows on flights as much anymore, particularly if you’re traveling in short-haul or domestic economy.

A scarf or shawl will keep you warm and comfortable, work as an airplane pillow when rolled up and will add some chic to your outfit when you arrive.

A blanket style could be the perfect option because you can use it as a blanket or head rest on the plane. Then, when you arrive, you can use as a shawl to keep you warm on chilly evenings, or as a beach towel or a picnic blanket.

Or another great choice, particularly if you are heading to a destination where you don’t want your valuables in plain sight if to choose a travel scarf with a hidden pocket, such as the infinity scarf (below).

Get her look with this similar cardigan (other options here and here ), pants (another option here ), sneakers , tote and scarf .

Here’s a tutorial and video for you on how to style a scarf .

3. Best travel shoes

Choose a pair of flats that are comfortable.

Bear in mind that you are likely to have to take your shoes off to go through security. So, you may prefer to have a slip-on style rather than laces.

I would make sure your travel shoes double up as really comfortable walking shoes. The Lauren Ralph Lauren sneaker (below) come in a choice of colors and neutrals, and feature a molded footbed so they should keep you comfortable while travelling and sightseeng.

4. Women’s travel shirts

A great button-down isn’t just a good travel option for men. It can look great worn with pants for your journey. Then, you can wear with shorts or over your swimsuit or your dress as a cover-up when you arrive for your vacation.

5. Travel t-shirt

T-shirts can be the basic core of any wardrobe, and your travel closet is no exception. You can wear them to travel in and team them with shorts and skirts when you arrive. Or, you can wear it instead of a pajama top to sleep in.

I’d stick to quality fabric without any logos on the front, so you can team with lots of pieces from your suitcase. Opt for something you can dress up with a statement necklace or scarf, or down just with sneakers and shorts. I like the interest created by the draped wrap style of the top below .

Loveappella Faux Wrap Top | 40plusstyle.com

Or, you might want a sleeveless option that you could dress up or down on warm days and evenings.

6. The perfect travel dresses

Do you prefer traveling in pants, or do you prefer the feeling of coolness and freedom you get from a comfortable dress?

If you do choose a dress, I would look for one in flexible, stretchy fabric such as jersey so you don’t feel restricted on your journey, just like this dress from COS .

You could wear it with sneakers for your journey and then dress up with heels or sandals when you reach your destination. You can always take a belt to create different daytime and evening looks.

7. Flying clothes: Travel cardigan

No matter where you are traveling, you are likely to need a cover-up in case it gets a little chilly on your journey, or for when the sun goes down in the evening.

If you choose a draped cardigan in a neutral shade, it should go with most outfits in your suitcase. The Lock and Love cardigan (below) can either be worn open as a cardigan, or closed so it looks more like a draped top.

8. Lightweight women’s jacket for traveling

You won’t want to be taking too many jackets on vacation with you as they take up suitcase space, so make sure the one you do choose is comfortable and versatile.

Of course, the best travel jacket for you will depend very much on where you are going. While a blazer will be perfect for the south of France, for example, you are unlikely to want such a dressed-up option on a safari in South Africa.

If you choose a blazer, I think you can wear it beautifully with pants and a pair of sneakers for the plane. Then, for a night out on vacation, you could team up with sandals or heels.

Natural fiber like linen will crease, but I think that’s part of the charm of linen blazers. Or you could opt for a piece with a wool mix for cooler climates, or in a polyester mix if you are worried about it creasing.

The rag & bone blazer (below) looks smart, but the relaxed linen fabric keeps it comfortable.

You could also think about a denim jacket, which would go well over your summer dresses.

9. The best women’s travel pants

Many of you will prefer to travel in a pair of pants rather than a dress. I would tend to avoid jeans as they aren’t particularly comfortable if you want to have a snooze on the plane!

A pair of drawstring pants, such as the ones by JEN7 by 7 For All Mankind pants (below) is a good option for both traveling and sightseeing.

JEN7 by 7 For All Makind The Traveler Drawstring Tencel®Pants | 40plusstyle.com

JEN7 by 7 For All Makind The Traveler Drawstring Tencel ® Pants

It’s a good idea to look for pants that have an elasticated waist so you don’t feel constricted during your journey. Another option could be the pleated pants (below) which should keep you cool if you’re heading off on a sunny vacation.

There are more elasticated waist options in this article on the best pants and skirts to fit and hide your belly .

10. Best pants for traveling: Travel leggings

Or, how about choosing a comfy pair of leggings to travel in? You can wear it with a loose tunic to make sure you’re comfortable.

Beyond Yoga Beyond Space Dye High Waist Pocket Leggings | 40plusstyle.com

Beyond Yoga Beyond Space Dye High Waist Pocket Leggings

11. Travel skirts

Skirts can be a great staple in your travel closet. You could opt for a cotton A-line knee-length style for an easy style to wear with sneakers. Midi or maxi lengths also look relaxed and stylish on vacation.

For traveling, I would stick with a knee-length or a midi. You don’t want trailing skirts to be getting stuck anywhere while you board and deal with your luggage.

Plane clothes for a modern-chic style

A modern-chic look can be one of the most comfortable and easy to pull off. Go with monotone neutral colors with an occasional splash of color.

Tailoring is important and comes in the form of cropped pants, or a silhouette that is a little more fitted. It’s the most minimal of all the styles and can mix and match quite well with other pieces.

Travel wear for a sporty look

Take advantage of the latest yoga-chic athletic trend! This includes state-of-the-art fabrics that are durable, comfortable and look good.

Choose a yoga-style boot-cut athletic bottom or a tight capri or legging. Many, like the one featured, are higher-waisted and have a built-in band to hide the belly.

Layer with a longer-length lightweight pullover, tunic or sweater to have a very chic athletic look that also hides flaws well.

The short coat below would also look great worn over a long t-shirt dress.

Plane outfits for long haul travel: What to wear on a long flight

While all of the travel clothes above are very versatile, if you are traveling long haul, you are likely to want to try to get some sleep.

Therefore, comfort is especially important. You could choose a stylish leisure set which is as comfy as pajamas , but looks more like daywear. You can always wear as separates when you get to your destination.

The leisure set (below) comes in a choice of five colors. Reviewers describe it as a fantastic outfit for the price.

Best travel outfits for warm climates

Of course, what you wear and what you pack will vary depending on where you are traveling to. For warmer climates, a loose-fit dress in a natural fabric can be a stylish, cool choice. If you’re heading somewhere warm, a light-colored, neutral outfit can look great. You could dress it up for evenings out with some statement gold jewelry.

Travel clothes for cold climates

For cooler weather, you’ll want to ensure that your travel closet includes a warm, but packable jacket which doesn’t take up too much space.

You may also want to pack some thermals that you can wear under your clothes and as pajamas.

I am visiting Portugal this June. I’m curious where you lived and if you have any “must see” places. Thank you.

Sylvia

Great decision! Portugal is beautiful. I still live here (in Luz, which I love) although I travel a lot but I’m here in spring and autumn. Honestly all of Portugal is beautiful so hopefully you have some time to explore. There are 3 articles where I talk about my experiences in Portugal on this page https://40plusstyle.com/?s=portugal

I was wondering where the jean jacket could be found.

Sylvia, Where did you get that amazing tshirt you are wearing in your picture? I’m not a tshirt person but I would wear that one in a minute!

I got that from Zara a few seasons back.

Melanie Cline

If one is flying long-distance and has a problem with not just ankles but also feet swelling from extended sitting, be sure to wear shoes that allow for that. When I travelled overseas in winter months, I used to wear low-heeled boots that were a half- or full-size bigger, filled up with a couple layers of heavy socks. If my feet swelled in flight, I could always take off a pair of socks to accommodate them. (This layering also kept my feet warm and blister-free while doing a lot of walking after arrival.)

Travel + Leisure / Daisy Rodriguez

Being cozy is not a want for me, but a need. My desire to be comfortable becomes a bigger priority on hectic travel days, so you already know that my suitcase is always filled with plush pieces that make me feel and look good when I'm on the go. But it may be a surprise to you that my top destination for making sure that my travel wardrobe is up snuff with comfortable yet affordable garments is Amazon. 

The giant retailer is actually bursting with comfortable two-piece sets and easy-to-style jumpsuits and sweatsuits for hassle-free, comfortable all-day wearing. If you’ve got a trip coming up, then you’re in luck, because I’ve curated a list of the 11 best comfortable travel outfits to wear on a plane, train, and virtually anywhere else. My upcoming travels serve as the main inspiration for this round-up, but I'm always happy to provide cozy clothing recommendations for my fellow jet-setters. What's even more exciting is that prices start at just $20, so keep reading to stock up on stellar travel outfits ahead of your next trip. 

Zesica Women’s Two-Piece Lounge Set

I’m traveling nearly every weekend for the next few months, and whether that be by train, plane, or car, I'm eager to get my suitcase squared away ahead of all of my trips. One of the first two-piece sets that I’m eyeing is this sweater set in a subtly blush color. But if that’s not your style, it’s also available in 20 other hues for endless styling opportunities. And as an extra treat, this set also happens to be on double discount for a mere $36 — just make sure to clip the on-site coupon to unlock the extra savings. 

Anrabess Women’s Two-Piece Sweater Set

I predicted that this sweater set would be a hot-ticket Amazon item back in August. I’m no oracle, but I’m happy to report that since then, this two-piece outfit has been in high demand, reaching Amazon best-seller status and earning countless reviews from shoppers who have gushed over how “gorgeous it is in person.” It's even been dubbed “ perfect for travel ” by several reviewers. Wear it together or apart, dress it up or down — in other words, you really can’t go by adding a do-it-all outfit to your wardrobe, especially while it's $33.

Anrabess Women’s Two-Piece Sweater Shorts Set

Anrabess' ever-so stylish duo also comes in a shorts version, which is excellent for all of the warm-weather and tropical getaways that I hope you have planned. You deserve nice garments that look and feel great, and shoppers are “ absolutely enamored with this shorts set ” and “can’t recommend it enough.” It’s also rare to see such a beloved set on sale for just $26, so I wouldn’t miss out on this opportunity to snag it if I were you. 

Lillusory Two-Piece Oversized Knit Set

If you’re stumped on what to wear to stay comfortable and cool on a plane, you can really never go wrong with sporting anything oversized and lightweight. This specific set features a stylish waffle-knit and loose-fitting design that lends itself especially well to long travel days on public transportation with temperamental thermostats. It also happens to have a 47 percent discount, and if you want a no-frills travel outfit that still manages to make you look chic, then you really can’t go wrong with this one.  

Automet Women’s Two-Piece Set

While we’re still in cold weather territory for a bit longer, warmer weather is coming and for just that, I’m eyeing this two-piece set from Automet that comes with a relaxed button-down top and pair of knit shorts. I already know that this would be the ideal set for my travel plans to Florida, but I’m also excited to add this set to my wardrobe for its mix-and-matching capabilities. I can pair the button-down with a pair of jeans or wear these cozy shorts to bed — and these are only the first of many outfit ideas that I've thought up. 

Glamaker Women’s Oversized Bike Shorts T-Shirt Set

We’re soon approaching bike shorts season, and I personally can't wait. They're the summer's equivalent of leggings with their stretchy fit and compressive material that keeps everything in place when you're on the move (or settling into a long-haul flight). This set comes with a high-waisted pair of bike shorts and a baggy T-shirt for a laidback travel day look that's still trendy and cute. As if it couldn’t get any better, you can snag this set for just $20. 

Happy Sailed Women’s Jumpsuit

This rib-knitted, flattering, and ultra-stretchy jumpsuit may just be the one-piece of my dreams. It’s got spacious pockets to hold onto your personal belongings and a sleeveless, loose-fitting design that allows it to be worn under or over a plethora of garments depending on the wardrobe vibe. Too cold? Throw a sweater over it. Overheating? No problem, it wears just as fabulous on its own. I’m certain that after you try this jumper out for yourself, you’ll never want to take it off.  

Coofandy Men’s Sweatsuit 

While I prioritize my own comfort above all else, I also want the other people traveling in my group to be just as comfortable. Whether that’s out of selflessness or because I hate listening to other people complain, I’m absolutely sending this men’s sweatsuit to my brother ahead of our next family vacation so he can feel as much cozy bliss as I will. Plus, shoppers are pretty thrilled with this sweatsuit; one particularly happy buyer shared that they “love the quality and comfort” and especially appreciated the “nice deep pockets” that you won’t lose anything in.

Coofandy Men’s Two-Piece Linen Set

This resort-ready outfit will take you from the airport to the beach with ease so you can focus less on what you’re wearing, and more on what you’re doing. At just $47, you get a one-and-done set that is easy to throw on, feels good to move in, and is breathable for anything that's on your itinerary. Plus, thanks to its cotton-blend fabric and wide-leg design, you’ll never feel restricted or too toasty. 

Automet Women’s Jumpsuit 

This budget-friendly option proves that great garments don’t have to break the bank. In fact, this adorable one-piece is just $30 and has managed to become Amazon’s best-selling jumpsuit . It comes in 23 different colors and because I’m certain that you’ll fall in love with its ultra-soft feel, you may as well do your future self a favor and add a few hues to your cart ahead of your next trip (or lounge session). 

Lainab Women's Soft Casual Jumpsuit

I run cold, so an ultra-soft jumpsuit is always appealing to me, no matter the itinerary. This one is designed with a long pants and long sleeve build that I personally believe could be the ultimate cozy ensemble. Oh, and while this set has the feel of a luxurious pair of pajamas, its slightly cinched waistband gives it a flattering touch so you always look put together.

While they have a relaxed fit, the front pleating gives them an elevated look that can be dressed up, too.

Universal Thread Rib-Knit Maxi Bodycon Dress

You can go straight from the plane out to dinner in this maxi tank dress.

There are eight colors to choose from, including springy pastel blue, pink, and yellow, as well as neutral shades.

21 Non-Junky Party Favors for Kids’ Birthdays

Portrait of Lauren Ro

Every parent who throws a birthday party for their child will have to deal with the tyranny of party favors. Are they necessary? No, but kids love a goodie bag. The question I found myself asking was, what can I get that’s not a complete waste of money and won’t immediately go in the trash or drive adults up the wall? After throwing a combined six parties for two kids, the most recent one for my older son who just turned 5, I have a few ideas that don’t involve noisemakers, swirly straws (if I see another one of those again, I swear …), or junky plastic tchotchkes. I tried to stick to paper-based products as much as possible, or things that kids can actually use — and get excited about. Below, the best party favors for kids, as vetted by yours truly and several other Strategist parents.

Besweet Vinyl Waterproof Stickers - Pack of 100

Stickers are always a hit, and these waterproof ones that are inspired by Squishmallows are perfect for water bottles. Strategist senior editor Winnie Yang recently bought a bunch for her 8-year-old daughter , who likes to trade them with her classmates. This pack of 100 can easily be divided among goodie bags.

Puffy Dinosaur Stickers - 14 Sheets

For my older son’s dinosaur-themed birthday party last year, I got this pack of puffy dinosaur stickers that actually look pretty decent.

Holographic Silvery Star Stickers - 500 Pieces

A roll of sparkly stickers can also be fun. Cut off a few per kid, and you’re on your way.

Dover Decorative Butterflies Stickers

For my son’s fifth birthday last month, I bought a variety of these four-by-six-inch Dover Little Activity Books that included sticker , stained-glass coloring, and puzzle books . Because I was hosting around 45 kids, I picked all the ones that were $2 and under. I also got sticker books with shells , Audubon birds , hummingbirds , woodland animals , and reptiles .

Dover My Rain Forest Sticker Activity Book

This rainforest-themed book comes with little scenes on the end covers on which to place stickers. And here’s an activity sticker book for train enthusiasts .

Dover Little Mandalas Stained Glass Coloring Book

I also got a few of these coloring books that have designs printed on vellum paper that you can tear out and put on a window to catch the light.

Blank Pocket Sketch Notebook - 24 Pack

Another time, I gave out these Field Notes–esque notebooks that were actually pretty close to the real thing.

Blank Notebooks with Colorful Covers - 24 Pack

Here’s a mixed-color pack that’s just as nice as the plain ones above.

Express Pencils Neon Half Pencils with Erasers - 48 Pack

Because I personally do not need anymore broken crayons lying around the house, I opted for these neon half-pencils last year to go with the notebooks. I was imagining kids drawing quietly in their notebooks or pretending they were detectives, jotting down clues.

Assorted Colorful Cartoon Animal Pencils With Erasers - 50 Pack

This year, I got these fun, full-size pencils with cute animal erasers on them.

Hardcover Sketchbook - 3 Pack

A friend with older kids told me she bought these hardcover sketchbooks for her daughter’s art-themed birthday party, where they would be creating their own books. The kraft cover is great for drawing on and decorating, too.

Crayola Twistables Crayons, 8ct

And a set of Twistables for them to use in their sketchbooks.

Mudpuppy Bengal Tiger 48-Piece Mini Puzzle

When my younger son turned 1 last year, I got a bunch of these mini tiger puzzles from Mudpuppy to go with the party’s tiger theme — the Chinese zodiac sign of the year he was born.

Dancing Bear Break Your Own Geodes

I love this idea from Strategist senior editor Jen Trolio, who gave out these break-your-own Moroccan geodes for one of her daughters’ birthdays last year. While they require the use of a hammer, they look pretty and are easy to break open, says Trolio. They were a smash hit (pun intended).

Ring Pop Variety Party Pack - 20 Count

Trolio paired the geodes with (edible) jewels — a.k.a. Ring Pops.

efrutti Mini Burger Gummy Candy - 60 Pieces

Novelty candy, as long as you don’t give out too many so that other parents resent you for the impending sugar rush, is another fun favor that I usually include. I love these gummy burgers so much that I had a hard time holding myself back from eating them before finishing the gift bags.

Laughing Smith 12-Pack Whoopee Cushion Set

A couple of Strategist parents have given out whoopee cushions as well for a tootin’ good time.

Birthday Party Mad Libs

Here’s another silly activity book for older kids that Yang used as a stocking stuffer and says would work equally well in a goodie bag. “Perfect for potty-humored second-graders,” she says.

Rainbow Scratch Paper Arts Notebooks - 24 Pack

Rainbow scratch pads are another interactive favor with a lot of uses.

Crayola Sidewalk Chalk Special Effects Set - 6 Pack

If it’s an outdoor party, sidewalk chalk could be another fun favor idea.

MiniWorldFood Felt Banana

And finally, for a smaller party, check out these felt bananas that Strategist senior writer Liza Corsillo recently gave out at her son’s banana-themed 1-year-old birthday party. My kids were delighted to receive them — especially because the banana comes out of its peel.
