Let’s start with the don’ts first. Had to get this out of the way quick fast and in a hurry! Why do people come to the airport with the biggest Louis Victor’s they can find? (LMAO) Instead of representing Louis Vuitton in the proper light, they would rather walk around with their noses in the air and there knock off replicas in their possession. You know you have seen the ones in the airport causing a scene; because they want everyone to know they have just bought the best Louis Victor’s from the Alley in L.A. or Canal Street in New York! These individuals tickle me. They walk with such pride like they’ve just dropped $2,000 dollars or more on designer luggage. Then, what puts the icing on the cake; these same people strut their stuff with all their so called Louis Vuitton carry-on’s and have the nerve to fly on a buddy pass sitting in Coach!... (LMAO) PEOPLE GET IT TOGETHER!!!!
Pet peeve number 2. Ladies… Why do you feel the need to wear the tightest, sexiest, most revealing clothes to the airport? We are not going to the club or auditioning for the next music video. We are going to be on an airplane that is pretty much uncomfortable for an hour or more. I know we’re all trying to look our best because you never know who you will meet and it would be great to catch a pilot’s eye. As women, we always have hidden agendas on why we operate the way we do; but let’s do it with a lot more class ladies.
Last but definitely not least; fashion traveling mistake number 3. People; let’s stop getting on the plane without the proper utensils in order to keep you fresh. Be polite!
Keep breath mints, gum, baby wipes, a skin moisturizer and a great fragrance to keep you smelling delectable. Haven’t you sat by someone that BO was so strong that it smelled like their Right Guard went left and Secret told on them hours ago? Sure you have, we all have or maybe that person has been you. Keep a clear zip lock bag of small refreshments. I love Kerstin Florian Spa Face Aromatherapy. This spray is excellent for refreshing and soothing the face and body. $35, kerstinflorianusa.com I love Very Hollywood by Michael Kors. It’s very exotic and makes the men go GAGA you can purchase a bottle for $85 at Neiman Marcus. Men try Antidote by Victor & Rolf. The ladies will always want to be close to you. Grab your fragrance at Saks Fifth Avenue for $90. I live by Huggies baby wipes in Shea Butter. These easy to keep pick me uppers will have you clean and soft like a baby. Can’t get to soap and water? Baby wipes are the saviors of the day! Also, always have great breath! Keep minty flavors like the ones from Orbitz gum or go tropical with the delicious flavors from Trident. Keep these tips and you will be clever in your dress and never smell a mess
Now that we have covered the don’ts of traveling, let’s venture into the more positive side of things! Do come to the airport with nice luggage. You don’t have to have designer names in order to feel in style. You can get very nice sets for discounted prices at Wal-Mart, Ross, T.J. Max and Marshalls. Get something solid and classic or have fun and grab something with a print. If designer is more your speed, go with your budget and get the real designer merchandise. How would you feel walking through the airport and you spot a horrible rendition of your luggage set? Remember, designer doesn’t make you better or clever. Style makes you a trendsetter!
Ladies! Do come to the airport in something cute and comfortable. Be polished and ready. I love to see a nice fitted jogging set, a tailored skirt, suit, or a great pair of jeans on a woman. Men do the same. Be clean and comfortable. A great button up and a pair of denim is always classic. A suit is great, especially when it has stretch fabric built in the inside for traveling. This eliminates wrinkles. Jogging suits are a cool option for men as well. A nice solid color with clean sneakers will make you look laid back and ready for your trip. Before I leave, let me reiterate the importance of keeping your personal hygiene bag close to you at all times. Refresh yourself when needed. We should always want to put our best face forward, our clothes speaking in confidence and our aroma smelling approachable. Your favorite style Queen Ms. Fallon Signing off
