Travellers, many of whom have been largely confined to their homes for months, are starting to dream again of beaches, mountains and monuments. Yet reopening travel presents its own challenges. There has been extensive range of protocols to cover the new normal, for providers as diverse as airlines, shops, hotels and restaurants and queuing will all shape the travel experience for some time. Make sure you understand and follow all airline and destination requirements related to travel, mask wearing, testing, or quarantine and you are double vaccinated.
Your next vacation may be planned out months in advance, but if you think you can leave your style choices ’til the last minute, you’re wrong. Looking good in casual clothes is harder than you think — especially if you’re used to suiting up during the week. And if your clothes aren’t good, that’s all people will see of your trip on Instagram.
There was a time when wearing baggy clothes wasn’t a good idea. However, today oversized shirts are making a comeback. When styled right, they make a great choice for breezy evenings at the beach or around the town. An oversized white tee paired with navy shorts looks so refreshing. You’d be surprised how these two simple pieces can make you stand out without sacrificing comfort. If going on a stroll during a hot day, consider an oversized white tank top and a pair of tan pants.
Tip: For the most part, you want to balance out the look by wearing a slimmer fit elsewhere. So with an oversized tee, you might want to wear fitter pants.
Lighter and brighter colours are more summer-appropriate as they better reflect the summer mood. What’s more, they keep you cooler in the sun. As you might know, dark colours absorb heat so avoid wearing them if you’re going to a tropical destination.
Chinos are versatile alternatives when it’s too hot to wear jeans. The right pair of chinos look great with both relaxed and dressier outfits, from plain white tees to blazers and button-downs.
A white shirt and brown loafers create a relaxed look perfect for cold drinks on a warm evening or a lunch out with friends down the streets. A pair of blue chinos can sub all the outfits that you’d often wear with denim pants. Go for mid-blue hues which are reminiscent of the sea. Complete the look with a pair of simple canvas sneakers that put you at ease.
Like to dress it up a little? Wear an open-necked shirt underneath a smart blazer. Easy, relaxed, and incredibly stylish.
Oversized Hoodie, Just as oversized tees look great on vacations and trips to the beach, chunky hoodies also make a popular choice. For a more relaxed fit, go for a zip-up oversized hoodie over a simple white tee or a tank top and a pair of sneakers. It’s worth remembering that oversized hoodies work great with matching accessories. Wear a sports watch, a cap, or a trendy bracelet. Choose belts in neutral shades or matching with your footwear. A belt wallet is also a good alternative especially if you’re embarking on some challenging outdoor adventures such as hiking. It will be most likely sunny during the day. You don’t want to hurt your eyes so make sure you’ve got a nice pair of sunglasses with you at all times.
With these items in your luggage, you can easily pull off fashionable outfits that will not only make you look good but will also make you feel incredibly great!
