Wondering what to wear to the airport? This post is all about combining comfort and style to put together the best airport outfit ideas!
There is nothing more fun and exciting than planning a trip, picking a destination, buying the plane tickets… If you’re type-A like me then even the act of deciding what outfits to wear on the trip and organizing everything you need can be so much fun.
There is a certain thrill that comes from simply walking into an airport, it’s like all the planning and dreaming about your destination finally comes together in that moment. Honestly I’ve come to find that it doesn’t matter if you’re traveling international or local, for pleasure or for work — travel is fun, going to new places and experiencing new things is always so exciting.
A love for travel is something I think we all universally share and if you’re lucky enough to be at a place in your life were you can do it, then you know how exciting it is. But there is one part of travel that people don’t put as much thought or planning into.
Which is actually the process of actually getting to your destination. And more specifically what to wear while traveling, And I get it, no one dreams about the long hours waiting at the airport and then the even longer hours sitting in the plane — we’re to busy obsessing about our destinations!
But if you think about it, depending on your destination, you’re probably going to spend a lot of hours in one outfit so you definitely want it to be comfortable. Your airport outfit is totally something you gotta put at least some thought into.
A good outfit to wear to the airport should always put comfort first and style second but that it should go on the back burner completely! You can totally have the best of both worlds if that is something that is important to you…

Hoodie, Legging and Sneaker Combo
There is a reason why the specific combination of an oversized hoodie or sweatshirt with legging and sneakers is so beloved as an airport fit. It’s a simple look to put together that is all together comfortable and stylish. You can throw on a baseball cap as an extra touch if you want. It’s literally such a good outfit for trotting around airports and being super comfortable and warm on airplanes.

Like in case it is colder than you expect. A cute way to style a little crop top for the airport is to pair it with some good leggings or some comfy sweatpants that you love.

We all know that flannel looks good for women as something to throw over an outfit. An outfit that you totally can’t over think for the airport is a flannel shirt thrown over a crop top with either sweatpants or leggings (whatever you feel most comfortable in!) and pair of comfy sneakers. Sneakers are always a great option for the airport, just in terms of comfort and ease, though you gotta pick a pair you’re comfortable wearing for a while. There a son of great options that mix comfort and style.

Matching Set with Shorts
Even though sporty outfits with shorts are so cute, you totally just want to pick this kinda look if you’re going on a short trip because shorts can get uncomfortably real quick. But honestly wear whatever makes you comfortable. Matching sets with sweatshirts/hoodies and shorts meet that cozy, cute qualification we want so much in our airport fits. With this look, you could either go for the more sporty looking set with the shorts or the matching set that is more like loungewear (soft and cozy). Whichever you prefer, all I know is that wherever you land, you’re going to be looking so cute!

Blazer with Crop Top Over Jeans and Sneakers
If you’re heading to the airport more style focused then you gotta throw on a blazer over a casual outfit, something like an easy casual top and years with some sneakers. This is the type of outfit you put on when you know you’re going to meet a few people right after stepping off the airplane. Or if you’re landing in the middle of a city, in the afternoon, it’s the sort of outfit you can wear both on and off the plane and not have to stress about how you look.

Matching Loungewear Set
I mean what better outfit to wear to the airport than a cozy lounge set? Especially if you’re heading for a super long flight! You’ll want to pick a lounge wear set that you can firstly wear out of the house without looking crazy! And also one that is soft and comfortable. You can easily find some flattering sets to wear to the airport. And, the right lounge wear set can make you look so chic and effortless. Plus top off your set with a long cardigan, just in case it gets chilly and you need a little extra coverage.

Jumpsuit and sneakers
Jumpsuits are kind of in this weird middle position of being both incredibly great and also terrible for travel. On the one hand its this single piece of clothing that you get to slip and then not have to stress about after but on the other hand, bathroom breaks in the thing can get really annoying. I will say though that jumpsuits can be really stylish and flattering and also extremely comfy and cozy which make them so great for traveling around in. Full body jumpsuits paired with a zip-up hoodie are great for long distance travel and then the short, romper style jumpsuits are great for those quick little trips. Both styles are really fashionable.

Matching Sporty Set with Puffer Jackets
You can’t go wrong with a matching sporty set and a puffer jacket vest. Especially if you’re traveling to somewhere cold or you’re heading to the airport during the colder months. An open front puffer jacket vest adds so much style to a look, especially something like a basic sweatsuit set.
