As the founder of a travel advisory and a long time travel blogger I am on the road a lot each year. I take a lot of flights and a lot of trips every single year. Every time I pick a travel outfit I always do so with a few caveats in mind so today I am going to share how I build easy travel outfits including the one styled above!
Easy Travel Outfits
I always aim for the perfect mix of looking put together and wearing comfortable clothes when I dress for travel. As you begin your packing list for your plane ride or car ride or train travel, consider not sacrificing your style while always accounting for comfort.
For today’s post, I headed to Evereve to grab some new pieces that are comfortable, easily mixed and matched and perfect wardrobe essentials for every day. Evereve carries some of my favorite brands like Varley and Alex Mill, Paige, Gorjana and Velvet. They also make their own pieces via their well-priced, trend-forward namesake label.
If you need help building more travel outfits or everyday, elevated looks – Evereve has an offering called Trendsend which offers up stylists (not computer programs) to help you curate fully styled, on-trend looks from their curation of brands. Then everything gets delivered to you!

Easy Travel Outfit Tips
Athleisure
Athleisure is not code for throwing on leggings and a sweatshirt and heading out the door on your trip. You can easily elevate an athleisure outfit with high quality pieces that have thoughtful, stylish details like ribbed knits or chic takes on zipper details.
I like an oversized denim jacket and joggers for warmer weather destinations. I like leggings with an oversized knit like a coatigan. Try adding a ball cap for an added sporty vibe.
Go Monochrome
A monochrome outfit is one of my go-tos for travel looks. It’s easy, looks put together and can account for spills and anything else you may encounter during a travel day.
This is why matching sets always look so good! Monochrome and yet oh so comfortable. Just look for ones that have high quality fabrics that will hold up.
Layers
I always, always get cold on planes so I have to travel in layers. I like to wear a tank or a tee under my knit of choice. Then a coat atop that.
Trousers
I love a pair of trousers for being so comfortable (especially those with an elastic waistband!) and yet put together. This is particularly great for red eye flights where you will land and perhaps not have a ready hotel room.
The Varley Kasey Wide Leg Trouser are a favorite. So comfy and yet put together. I have them in a satin and a matte black now.
Comfy Bras
We’re not wearing underwire on long trips, ladies! Pick a t-shirt bra or low support sports bra.
Think About the Destination
Heading to a Caribbean destination? Think about what bag you’ll want once there and use that as your carry on.
Consider the Whole Journey
No one wants to be dealing with bodysuits or jumpsuits in an airplane bathroom, dealing with loads of buttons on a coat at airport security or having to remove additional pieces of clothing because of metal detectors. Or I am personally not traveling in flip flops should I need to be running for a connection and because they aren’t the most sanitary shoe to be wearing for long travel in my opinion. I also generally try and avoid having to wear jeans on overnight flights if I can help it.
Pick the Right Shoe
Pick a shoe that goes with your travel look but will also be used once you arrive in your destination.
What’s the best thing to wear when traveling?
In the end, the best thing to wear when traveling is something you feel comfortable in and feel good in. Travel doesn’t have to mean choosing between comfort and style. With the right outfits, you can have both. From cozy leggings and chic jumpsuits to effortless maxi dresses and sporty athleisure, these travel outfits will keep you feeling fabulous no matter where your adventures take you. So, next time you’re packing, keep it easy and chic—because who says you can’t look amazing while jet-setting?
