travel modestia.

I’ve become convinced that there is a whole other set of fashion standards when it comes to traveling. You want to be comfortable since you have to sit for a while, but you don’t want to look frumpy either. I’m very anti-sweatpants or anything of the sort, though I would never go so far as to wear heels (as I have witnessed some women wear.)

When I flew to Mexico I wore skinny jeans, a vintage tee, a boyfriend cardigan, and some nautical-inspired slip-on shoes…basically an outfit that was cute yet comfortable and simple enough to slip on and off when going through security. I went to Atlanta last weekend and wore a sundress with a sweater and sandals. My mother scoffed at the dress when I first walked out of my room the morning I left, but it was made out of jersey fabric and therefore still comfortable to walk around in.

For me, the fashion staples of travel wear are slip-on shoes to pass easily through security, a great bag for all of my items (e.g. my passport, rosary, and fashion magazines), and cute sunglasses for sleeping on the plane. :)

But in any case, I was looking for examples of travel outfits and found some great paparazzi shots of celebs at LAX. People sure are rocking the summer scarf trend pretty hard:

Actress Reese Witherspoon

My favorite diva-mommy Actress & Singer Jennifer Lopez

Oscar-winner Hillary Swank (with a new short haircut for her new role as Amelia Earhart)

Model Sienna Miller

Singer Kelly Rowland

    Great entry! Thanks for starting the blog back up. Are those Siena Miller boots really still in?

    LOL, I’m actually wearing Uggs right now.

    When it isn’t fall/winter I wear them as slippers. I don’t know what the temperature was where Sienna is in the picture, but my guess is that it was probably slightly chilly and she just threw them on.

    Currently they’re out of season in America, but they never go out of style. It’s winter in Australia right now, and I expect that I will see lots of people wearing Uggs when I go on my trip this July.
