Unfortunately, that glorious way of travel is yet in our future. Shucks. So, until then, we are doomed to travel on airplanes, buses and trains. Which means, we need to travel in comfort, and still keep our style.
As my frequent readers know, I can be a bit flashy, and make stupid fashion choices for the situation I'm in, but I also appreciate clean and simple T-shirt - and - jeans combo. And when you're rushing through the airport, juggling your luggage and trying to find the right gate, who wants to be inconvenienced by skyhigh heels, coochie-cutters and nazel baring tops?
I always say, no matter what your typical style is, you can pair a T-shirt and jeans that tell everyone what your fashion is, without too much broohaha.
To start, I am a fan of smartass T-shirts. Especially nerdy ones, like "Don't Drink and Derive" and "It's Not Rocket Surgery". Some of my favorites:
It's only fair to warn my fellow travelers.
If you don't know what that is, you probably were popular in high school.
MADE OF WIN. All shirts can be found at Snorgtees.com
For early morning flights, I hate having to find jeans that are clean and pressed, but by the time I stumble off the tarmac, will look as if I've been sleeping in them for weeks. So, I always go the distressed denim route, figuring that no one will know if I've worn these for a week, or if they are freshly put on. That, and I like the way they look.
Vanilla Star distressed denim.
Diesel distressed denim. Homigawd, I want. *drool*TSA gets SO pissed when you don't wear shoes that can come off easily. And your fellow passengers get SO pissed they may help you pass into the next realm. By setting about your person with fists and feet.
Luckily, there are flip flops. Even luckier, for those who like a more frou-frou or embellished look, there are thongs. As a Floridian, I wear flip flops. I don't really wear too fancy of a sandal, because that's how we roll where I'm from. Seriously. There's even a Facebook page titled, "I don't care how cold it is, I'm wearing flip flops!!!" Seriously.
I like flip flops because they are easy to get off and on. I like to curl up in my seat on the plane, feet tucked under my butt for warmth, and twisted to watch the clouds, so I always kick my shoes off before I do anything else. And before I get horrified e-mails about germs and bacteria, let me assure you, I KNOW. I know how dirty and icky and gross the carpets and seats are. You don't have to tell me. I go barefoot because that's my comfort zone. Got it? Good.
I love RocketDogs. These are cute, and the platform style makes them so much girlier.Sometimes airports or planes are hot as balls. Sometimes, it's like you're in the frickin' Artic Circle. How on Earth they expect people to not only travel to diverse climates, but with such a frickin' unpredictable A/C system, it's beyond belief. Best bet is to bring a favorite cardigan or sweatshirt.
I always bring one of my grandma's oversized, comfy thrift store cardigans. It looks just like the boyfriend cardigans that were all over the place, and it only cost a buck. And, it's cozy as hell.
I love the pop of color. Oversized, light weight and perfect for a coverup.
Another awesome choice, and looks more like the one I always bring. I love it!That's all for the outfit. The next Travel post will be about luggage and carry-ons!
Toodles!
