Wanderlust essentials

Traveling is sometimes an unfortunate consequence of the holidays. Flying, in particular, can result in lengthy layovers and uncomfortable accommodations. That doesn’t mean you can’t approach your journey in style. Whether you want to arrive in glamorous style or travel in chic comfort, there are trendy ensembles for every jetsetter to wear on the way to their destination.
All eyes are on you with this sophisticated look (above). Light faux fur and lined leather pants will keep you warm in that chilly, jet cabin. Fur VEST ($198), leather PANTS ($128), and BLOUSE ($68), all available at Island Passage; EARRINGS ($40), available at Tusc Boutique; BOOTS (model’s own); vintage LUGGAGE ($40), available at The Wonder Shop.
This denim dress (below), layered over a cozy turtleneck, is an effortless ensemble to don during and after your flight. Perfect for when there’s no time to change clothes after your trip. TURTLENECK ($70), DRESS ($179), and NECKLACE by Spectrum Handcrafted Goods ($120) all available at Tusc Boutique.

The perfect look (right) for when comfort trumps all. Pair with a bomber jacket and bright sneakers to take your travel athleisure look to higher altitudes. HOODIE ($40) and PANTS ($46), both available at Lula Balou; EARRINGS ($40), available at Tusc Boutique; bomber JACKET ($138), available at Island Passage; red SNEAKERS by PUMA (assistant’s own); vintage LUGGAGE ($25), available at The Wonder Shop.
