What to Wear...at the airport

Hey everyone!

 

I am doing a What to Wear today because I am actually out of town going to the doctors so I really don't want to be doing this while I am here, so this is one I already had finished. Since many of you might be leaving to go on vacation for Spring Break and we all have that question, what should I wear to the airport? Should you wear sweats or something cute? I think a mixture of comfortable and cute is the way to go, if it is cold wear leggings and if it is warm wear jean shorts. I am doing this What to Wear if your somewhere cold going to somewhere warm.

 

*Remember to always have luggage that is bright or very noticeable!

*Always bring sunglasses(if you look tired put those on or if it is bright on the plane put them on so you can sleep).

Here are some celebrities going to the airport for some inspiration for you :)

Spring Trends....peplum dresses

During New York Fashion Week many designers like Rodarte, Thakoon, and Cusine et Ochs showcased the lovely Peplum Dresses. 

I am absolutely loving the Peplum Dress because they really showcase your hourglass shape and even if you don't have one this dress will give the illusion of having that shape.

Here is the lovely Blake Lively in a Jason Wu Peplum dress.

What to Wear...on a rainy day

 

What to Wear...on a rainy day is perfect for today since it is raining in Chicago. This is also a perfect day to use this because I have the Burberry rain boots here and on my Wanted Wednesday that I featured today! Rainy days are a perfect day to whip out your trench coat, rain boots, a stylish umbrella.

 

In the first look I have the Burberry rain boots, Michael Kors trench coat, jeans, a sweater to keep you toasty warm, and a cute ruffled umbrella. This look is more of your casual rainy day look that would be perfect for a day of running errands or going shopping.

 

The last look has the Hunter high heel rain boots, a Burberry trench coat, jeans, pink scarf, wool hat, and a cute pink umbrella to match the scarf and trench coat. This look is a little more of your dressy rainy day that would be perfect for a lunch date or a day shopping.

Celebrity Look Alike

Everyone loves a good dose of Olivia Palermo because of her effortless style she wears walking the streets of New York and her trendy and chic outfits she wears on the red carpets. This certain look is her showcasing her effortless style while walking around the magnificent New York City. The cool color of the olive green jeans, the ballet flats, and her plain black sweater is a look any girl can wear. Pairing with a big tote bag, simple earrings, gold bangles, and beautiful movie star sunglasses will make you feel like you can take on the world, one store at a time.

The next starlet is the beautiful Leighton Meester, who we all know and love from the amazing show “Gossip Girl.” The show has really rubbed off on Leighton because she can wear simple olive green cargo pants with a white t-shirt and still make it look stylish. Add sky high platform heels, a hobo tote bad, and big round sunglasses and you too can look like Leighton.

Trends for Spring

Another trend during Fashion Week 2012 was bold prints. This trend was showcased by Derek Lam and Cynthia Rowerly. This trend should be worn minimally with one bold print item at a time; a blazer, skirt, pants, scarf.

Everyone can wear this trend because of its versatility; wear one bold piece at a time or wear 2 bold pieces at the same time. The minimalist to the outright daring fashionista can get away with this amazing spring trend.

Beaded dress, $35
Wool cardigan, £90
Knit cardigan, £72
Maison Scotch floral blazer, $109
ASOS cotton blazer, $116

Celebrity Look Alike

The first Celebrity Look Alike I picked was the very talented country singer Jessie James. This new country/pop singer is not really well known but I absolutely love her music along with style. I watched her music video called, “I Look So Good (Without You)” and fell in love with her outfit. Since nautical wear is very much a trend right now, this outfit is a perfect fit for that. I love the pop of gold jewelry that is in her outfit and her edgy shoes. Pair this outfit with nude lips, pink blush, bronzer, and wavy hair. Now there you have it, Jessie James’s I Look So Good (without you) inspired look. Here is a link to watch her video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-35GWbTjus

The next outfit was inspired by the beautiful Kat Graham who we all know is on the very popular show “Vampire Diaries.” This look is very laid back yet chic because of the LBD she is wearing. The little pop of color of pink in her bracelet is a nice way to add color. The best part of this whole outfit is the trendy jean jacket, which had come back into style at full force! Pair this outfit with pink blush and light pink lipstick and you too can look like Kat Graham!
