How to Look Stylish and Sophisticated When Travelling

  • August 8, 2023
  • Jules

When travelling, weโ€™re not always expected to look our best. Long nights, sleepless bus rides, long haul flights, limited clothing options and sometimes minimal sleep all contribute to many female travellers feeling a little worse for wear when exploring the world.

However, did you know that you don’t have to feel scruffy just because youโ€™re travelling the world? The right approach means that you can look chic and stylish despite feeling like you haven’t slept properly in days! In this post, weโ€™ll explore some simple ways you can look stylish and sophisticated whilst travelling, read on to find out more. 

Discover Bralettes

The bralette has certainly become popular over the past few years, with many women swapping out their old, uncomfortable bras for gorgeously cute and uber-comfortable bralettes. The bralette is ideal for travel, as itโ€™s comfortable and conforms to the shape of your chest easily, and can also be worn to give your travel outfit a bit of a boost. A black bralette, for example, can be paired with an oversized shirt or zip-through hoody for a casual airport look, or could even be worn as part of your evening wear, effortlessly taking you from day to night. 

Bralettes come in a wide range of styles and cuts, whether youโ€™re looking for something simple and practical to sleep in whilst you take an overnight bus, or youโ€™re hoping to hit the beach bars but want to look glamorous without wearing a heavy, tight fitting top – you can easily mix and match bralettes to suit the occasion and personal style. 

Donโ€™t Forget About Your Footwear

You might be living in your flip-flops when you reach your destination, especially if youโ€™re staying by the beach or visiting a hot climate, but when youโ€™re travelling itโ€™s important to consider other kinds of practical footwear that can not only help you look put-together but also provide support and comfort. Chunky trainers are on-trend right now and add a playful edge to any outfit, whether youโ€™re opting for sweats and a bralette or leggings and a blazer. Your choice of shoe will pay off when you have to visit the aeroplane bathroom or stand for hours waiting for your suitcase to appear on the carousel. 

Layering Is Always Chic

Learning how to layer your outfits will always help you look sophisticated and well put together no matter where you are on your journey across the world. The great thing about layering is that you can easily remove or add layers to adjust to the climate or your level of comfort. Applying the right layering technique means creating multiple ensembles – just make sure you include a bralette for added comfort and style!

Donโ€™t Forget Your Skincare

Looking sophisticated whilst travelling isn’t just about wearing the right clothes. Keeping your skin fresh and dewy will also give you an image boost. Remember to apply a high SPF as part of your daily routine, drink water to keep yourself hydrated and if you choose to wear makeup, keep it lightweight and natural looking. 

Final Thoughtsโ€ฆ

Keeping yourself stylish when travelling is easy when you know how! Consider these tips above to always look great when exploring the world.
