Fly Girls: Our Guide To Traveling In Style
Dressing for the airplane is nearly as harrowing as dressing for a trip to the great outdoors, but instead of wildlife, the elements, and isolation, you have to battle those dammed metal detectors, disorienting temperature changes, and spontaneous nap attacks. Being prepared for airplane travel doesn't mean you have to look like a college freshman in the middle of Finals. There are ways to maintain a level of sophistication while being able to snuggle up in your window seat. These are three rules we live by when we fly—here's to ditching the tracksuit and traveling in style!
Go Long—Dresses might seem pretty impractical on a plane, but maxi-dresses can be the perfect warm-weather travel piece. Tuck your legs up when it gets frigid, or hike the skirt up if you're warm. Pair with a structured cardigan, a roomy bag, and zip-off sandals.
