Travelling in Style!

Spring has sprung here in Sydney and after hibernating all Winter, I'm making the most of it. That means getting out and about and it's not just limited to Sydney. I'm heading south to Melbourne and flying out to Singapore a little later on.
Travel is no excuse for style. You can still be comfy and stylish at the same time! I swear, the airport is a completely new season in terms of fashion! Just follow these easy tips and you'll be travelling in style!


  • Keep your look simple- stick to a neutrals palette with a pop of colour : simple, yet sophisticated!
  • Functional footwear goes a long way!- Forget studs and buckles or you'll be constantly taking off your shoes at security checks. Go with the sneaker wedge: a trend on the rise, known for being comfy yet more feminine than your typical sneaker, but still gives your look a sporty feel. But of course, if you're going for that look, it;s time to rock those converse! The classic riding boot, or any boot, is simple and perfect for the occassion.
  • Comfy sweater + Leggings + a scarf is your go to for guarenteed comfort! 
  • Go for the tote!- The last thing you want is to be bogged down by bags, so go for a bag that's large enough for your laptop and a couple magazines
  • Keep jewellry to a minimum!- As I said, you don't want to be held up at security over your bracelets, so in this case less is more. Stick to a watch and that's about it!
  • Layer up!- We all know how cold it can get on planes, so plan ahead and layer up with coats, blazers and sweaters so your cozy for your ride.
  • Up and out of your face- Keep your hair up in a messy bun for minimum fuss- and ut's called messy bun for a reason!
  • Makeup- This is where you can end up like a hot mess so follow my advice- go for the classic look with a simple winged liner that's waterproof, you don't it to move at all! Make it thick. This way you'll have minimal eye makeup in a neutral palette, so there's not too much to smudge and if it does, it's almost unnoticeable. Lip and cheek stains are the way to go, as thwey literally will not move. Make it bold to contrast your neutralpalette of clothing and makeup.
So with my advice, I hope you'll be catching flights in style!
Love,
Shoba
