Raise your hand if your dream is to sit on a mountain top for hours and dive into the colour burst of the sunset. Raise your hand if you want to create poetry with the rhythm of the waves and run like a free spirit on the golden sand. Raise your hand if you are game to walk miles and immerse in the decadence of ornate architecture and monuments. Raise your hand if you love to gaze at the reflection of the sky on a lake as you ride with nonchalance in your boat. If you have raised your hands to all of these (I am sure you couldn’t resist the charm of these!) then welcome to the club, you are a wanderlust. A travel bug. A travel addict. Much like me! If you are a travel bug, you will know that travelling not just needs a temperament for the love of exploration, but also to be travel ready and an essential part of that is wearing the right kind of outfits. So if you have been wondering what to wear to the airport, what to pack and how to balance comfort without compromising on style, then this is it. Here are 8 fool proof travel looks to sort out your vacation packing!
LOOK 1: Slip in your nautical-stripe top and add a twist to it by knotting it up at the centre. This turns it into a cute crop top while rendering it a fun makeover. Team it up with white high-waist lycra pants or grey washed-out denim. Complete the look with a blush tone duster, a natty bucket bag that coordinates with the colour of your bottom wear, marsala puckers and white sneakers with a metallic edge.
LOOK 2: Shirt-dresses are one of the biggest trends of the season. They are super comfortable, convenient and versatile. So pull in your shirt-dress from the wardrobe and blend it with ripped leggings following the classic flare-fit coordination. Tie your hair in a twisted top knot, slip into printed espadrilles and seal the deal with berry or coral lips.
LOOK 3: If you are someone who wants to make a statement with your travel look and while adhering to minimalism at the same time, bring out the Grecian diva in you. Embrace a white ankle-length flowy dress with criss-cross tie-up detail at the back. Finish off the look with rose-gold reflectors, a wide-brimmed hat and pom pom tie-on gladiators to channel the bohemian in you.
LOOK 4: For this look, transform your simple tee and give it a new lease of life with a jacket just hovering over your shoulders, palazzos and ankle boots. To add a finishing touch, choose a handbag with a pom pom bag charm and geometrical sunnies and voila you are sure to turn heads!
LOOK 5: If you are someone who doesn’t shy away from prints then ditch the run-of-the-mill travel looks for a more fun and young look! How about teaming up a pineapple-print crop top with denim dungarees, printed sneakers and a quaint backpack? Sounds interesting nah? Then try it on!
LOOK 6: This is for the travel stylista who aspires to rock her every look. Hence, embrace fringe tops, kimonos, shorts and polish off the look with slides!
LOOK 7: Another trend that has stayed with me are numbered T-shirts and I feel the colour palette of black or white works the best. Contrast it with wine red or olive treggings, metallic sneakers and a round sling bag. Not at all fussy and yet on point!
LOOK 8: Give your conventional denim a twist by picking up one with patchwork and coordinate it with a white cold-shoulder blouse. Say hello to bellies for your happy feet.
Hope these travel looks were helpful and you are planning to try one of these (or all) for your next travel agenda.
Stay in style and don’t forget to wear your smile.
