You might have already planned in your mind what you will wear on the plane and while you are traveling in general. If you dress up a bit to travel it seems to make your passage that much smoother. Check-in staff will smile a bit brighter, the all-important customs and security people seems to be more cordial, flight attendances don’t mind to go the extra mile for that blanket or refreshment that you request. When you appear well groomed and crisply turned out, even if you are only wearing jeans and a nice shirt – it speaks volumes. When you appear scruffy, it conveys the message that you don’t really care and you can’t really deal with it. A good basic outfit consists of:
- Well-cut, clean , comfortable and cozy jeans and pants (not super tight)
- Sweater or pashmina draped around neck or shoulders
- Good, simple earrings and watch
- Minimal make up and freshly washed hair, clipped back up in a ponytail
- Nice and restful flat walking boots.
….and what not to wear
- Tracksuits
- T-shirts with inappropriate message or obscenities
- G-strings (you bend over a lot when you travel and these always ride up)
- Messy, extreme-colored hair
- Too much cheap jewelery
- Tons of makeup
In short, to be a good traveler, you fly under the radar. Dressing quietly but well is a good habit, drawing nothing, except the attention you want.
