Peak travel season is just around the corner as summer reaches its peak. Whether you’re counting down the days until the big vacation and have been making plans for months or a few weekends on the horizon, one thing’s for sure: an airport vacation is most likely in the near future. Not only is it vital to pack plenty of cute vacation outfits, but you also need to create the right travel looks for the airport. Since celebrities are on the move, who best to give us the inspiration we need to make airport outfits even more simple and stylish?
The key to a successful outfit is to focus on comfortable yet trendy staples that can take you straight from a red-eyed flight to the streets. Take Jennifer Lawrence and Gigi Hadid’s predilection for oversized shirts and wide-leg jeans. . These are classic, comfortable essentials that are stylish and will get you through ASD without having to search like you’re getting out of bed. In addition, they can be used as soon as you get off the plane for lunch, when your hotel room is not yet in a condition to check in. Fancy t-shirts of all kinds are also a great position to start, as evidenced by Katie Holmes and Kirsten Dunst effortlessly, but if you need to go through something a little more refined, Elle Fanning. It shows that an oversized suit can be a wonderful outfit. A tip to take when you only carry hand luggage.
Below, check out nine stylish celebrity-inspired airport looks to make your next trip even more stylish.
It’s hot outside, so why not opt for something airy and bright?The combination of white t-shirt and boxer shorts from EmRata is the best combination for that short flight from Madrid to Menorca, or wherever your travels take you this summer. Simply step up a designer biker boot (this pair of Miu Miu is among the best on our fall bucket lists) that will glide smoothly through the protective lines and possibly take up no space in your luggage.

We’ve been going crazy for Jennifer Lawrence’s crush lately, and even at the airport, she’s killing it. This denim-on-denim combination is undeniable to pull off and looks much more stylish than a tracksuit. A fashion accessory, like an ambitious mesh flat shoe. The tote adds a touch of cool, while an oversized woven tote bag is the ultimate personal item to store your laptop, headphones, and other in-flight essentials.

White denim is a summer staple in our books, and Katie Holmes’ urban ensemble proves just how best it is for a day trip. Pairing those wide-leg jeans with a soft buttery yellow t-shirt, evergreen ballet flats, and a luxurious weekend bag (a wonderful investment that will last a lifetime), she gives us a slightly vintage-inspired look. In the 70s, we believe Jackie Kennedy Onassis would be noticed playing sports in the past while on her way to Capri.

A trench coat is the traveler’s most productive friend, especially on night flights that tend to get cold. It can also serve as an outer layer when it lands at its destination. If your summer travels take you anywhere in the world, Angelina Jolie’s trench coat and boots set, complete with a spacious raffia bag, will take you from London to Copenhagen, to Berlin and beyond. We simply propose replacing stilettos with something flat and more manageable.

If you can’t live without a comfy sweatshirt, Phoebe Dynevor shows us how to make it more useful and less like you’ve been living in a suitcase for a week. The attention to compatibility is important, so it doesn’t look bad at all, but the big promotional point for us are the Mary Jane leather ballerinas, which add a more feminine touch to the vintage jeans and sweatshirt-shirt set. A baseball cap with a vintage finish and oversized sunglasses also allow you to go virtually incognito.

Airport looks don’t always mean t-shirts, jeans and sweatshirts. Elle Fanning’s sparkly outfits are the best to take you from a flight to a meeting or even an outdoor lunch. Its compatibility with loose clothing is not restrictive, for a comfortable in-flight experience. Add a no-fuss tank top underneath (she can always lose the jacket when she arrives) and optic white flats for a chic approach, and don’t pack a carry-on in a fun color. This amplifies the overall atmosphere.

If you haven’t heard yet, the ringtone t-shirt is making a comeback. This easy-to-wear wardrobe must-have is a wonderful partner at the airport, when she dresses up like Kirsten Dunst, with cropped jeans and TSA-approved pants. slip-on loafers. Cleverly wrap a sweater around your neck to keep you a little extra warm when it’s time to take off, and don’t let your color palette stay in the impartial family: white, military, and brown are always stylish.

Han So-hee’s taste in airport can best be described as that of an It girl from downtown. Keep your travel look to a minimum as she does with the key ingredients of her wardrobe: a simple tank top, perfectly worn jeans, and a leather jacket are pieces that are worn over and over again once you arrive at your destination. If the airport platforms seem too heavy for you, we recommend recreating this same outfit with a new pair of Adidas shoes for a more comfortable version.

Gigi Hadid’s casual taste is as enviable as her look on the red carpet and this one is very easy to replicate. Play with proportions by starting with a flawless, oversized button in optical white, adding loose, faded jeans like pants, and finally, high-end Converse. -high-top shoes (we love this taupe color combination as a welcome option to black or white). Complete it with a designer cap, a trendy way to hide messy hair after a long flight.
