Figuring out what to wear to the airport is notoriously challenging. You could show up in a pair of slouchy sweatpants and a hoodie you already wore the last three days and be extra comfy. Or you could throw on an outfit that leans into your chic sensibilities, but makes you feel extra fidgety as you’re zooming through the sky.
To be honest, neither scenario is ideal. After all, you want to look your best and feel your best, especially when navigating complex airport terminals and lugging around your suitcase and travel accoutrements. But girl, you can have the best of both worlds — an airport outfit that’s as comfortable as it is fashion-forward.
For your next flight, take your style cue from celebs who constantly travel and need to look good doing it. We’ve rounded up some of our favorite celebrity airport outfits and pulled individual garments that’ll help you nail the look.
