Dressing Up for Travel – Why Style and Comfort Can Go Together

There’s something timeless about dressing up for a journey. While sweatpants and oversized sweaters have become the go-to airport attire, there’s a certain joy in bringing back a bit of that old-world travel style. After all, you don’t have to sacrifice comfort for class—smart choices can make a stylish and cozy airport outfit totally doable. Here are three looks that bring together comfort, sophistication, and just the right touch of “je ne sais quoi” for your next trip.

Look 1: Classic and Sophisticated with a Trench Coat

Start with a piece that instantly makes any outfit look chic—a beige trench coat with pockets for easy access to your travel essentials. Pair it with black wide-leg twill pants that give a bit of stretch for comfort but keep things looking polished. A simple black flat heel shoe keeps your feet happy while adding a refined touch. Underneath, slip on our white cotton tee with the red text “rouge”—it’s simple yet adds a pop of color and personality. Top it off with a brown tote bag, perfect for stashing your essentials in style. This look captures that sophisticated French vibe while staying relaxed and practical.

Look 2: Stylish and Cozy with a Skirt and Crewneck Sweater

If you’re into skirts, this look has just the right balance of comfort and flair. Start with a short black cotton skirt and layer it with comfy black tights, perfect for those cooler airport terminals. Our super soft Lycée Français crewneck sweater (French tucked for a little extra style) makes this look both cozy and chic. Pair with loafers for a polished, grounded look and bring along a large beige tote bag to keep your in-flight must-haves at hand. It’s a look that feels put-together but still gives that cozy, easygoing vibe.

Look 3: Relaxed Elegance with Silk Pants and a Cardigan

For a more relaxed, flowing style, wide-leg silk pants in a soft sand color are your best friend. Look for a non-creasing fabric so you can keep things smooth and classy even after a long flight. Add our white tee with “Côte d'Azur” text in blue for a little travel flair, and throw on a soft, off-white cardigan with pockets for that extra cozy layer. Complete the look with a blue tote and classic Mary Jane shoes in a matching sand shade for a coordinated finish. It’s a mix of luxe and laid-back, perfect for gliding through the airport in style.

Uplifting Travel Style – Smart, Simple, and Classy

Traveling can feel just a bit more special when you put a little thought into your outfit. With these looks, you can bring style back to your airport routine without sacrificing an ounce of comfort. So next time you’re packing for a trip, try swapping out the leggings for something that captures the elegance of travel. After all, the journey should feel as beautiful as the destination.
