In-Flight Fashion With Jessie from Style and Pepper


So excited to be having Jessie of Style and Pepper on today!  She's a style correspondent for Harpar's Bazaar On-Air, and does lots of traveling.  I just adore Jessie because she's just so gosh-darn fabulous!  Today she is sharing some really wonderful tips on in-flight fashion.  Enjoy!



Hi Friends!  Jessie of Style & Pepper here... So happy to be guest posting for Katie while she enjoys some time away with her Sweetie Pie!  I've been doing a LOT of traveling lately (over 12 cities in the last 6 weeks!) and because of my frequent flying, I've had to try my best at coming up with a formula for my own version of in-flight fashion.  I think that every one could have their own take on such a thing, but here are some of the must-haves that I just can't leave home without.  Be sure to leave your own stylish travel tips in the comments, and that way we can all help make the world's airports a little prettier. ;)
  • Sunnies - Gotta keep those peepers protected! I keep mine safe by tucking them in this embroidered Johnathan Adler case.
  • Jacket - The lightweight fabric and neutral color of this military-inspired anorak are just perfect, and I love that you could fill the pockets with essentials like chapstick, your ID/boarding pass & your favorite gum.
  • Laptop Case - I always fly with my computer, and this adorable case would be the perfect replacement for the boring black neoprene one that I currently use.
  • Harper's Bazaar - I usually prefer my Kindle, but always have a few mags with me so that I have something to do during take-off and landing.
  • Tank - Flowy and bright, both very important criteria for my layering pieces to build upon.
  • Skirt - Maxi's are great flying options, but make sure to pick one that won't wrinkle and has a comfortable waist band.  If you're not a skirt person, you could easily sub in your favorite leggings and change the tank to a tunic!
  • Scarf - A pretty pattern to wrap around your neck, and cover your arms/shoulders in case the air condition on the plane or in the airport gets too chilly.
  • Boots - No matter how warm it is outside, flying in comfortable ankle boots is a must for me... They are easy to slip on and off, very on-trend, and allow you to wear socks so that you don't have to walk through security with completely bare feet! (Ew!)

Great choices for traveling. I'm flying to london next week and I'm most stressed about the long flight and flight outfit.
