I wore this outfit for air travel last weekend. I like to be comfy while traveling - shoes that are easy to remove, layers to adjust for changing temperatures, and pants that are comfy to sit in for hours. But looking put together? Also hugely important for me, thanks to one awkward encounter many years ago. On that fateful day, I ran into my ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend at the airport and I was wearing a Teletubbies t-shirt. (Um, what?) I'm not sure why I was wearing that anywhere, let alone the airport (?!!), but after that encounter and many others where I either ran into someone I knew or made a business connection at the airport, I realized there is something to be said for looking stylish during air travel. As the saying goes, you never know when you might meet the President. What's your airport style?
