With all the buzz about “elevating airport style,” I’ve been thinking maybe it’s time I stop dressing like a high school senior with chronic senioritis when I’m traveling. (Yes, I’m talking about the iconic sweat-set combo with slippers—don’t act like you haven’t worn it.) I mean, I’m 29, it couldn’t hurt to look more put-together ahead of a nice vacation I paid for! That’s where travel wraps come in. They’ve been a favorite of fashion girls for decades, and they’re perfect for staying warm on the go while also looking chic. It’s the sweet spot I’ve been looking for! And honestly, it feels like the perfect time for me to hop on the look now that I’m really leaning into my grown-girl era.
