What to wear: Flying to New York

I leave for New York tomorrow morning. I always try to dress up a bit for plane trips. Even with all the new travel restrictions, there is still something fun about flying. This outfit blends together my travel favorites with a few dream items:

• Black Turtleneck – Perfect for staying warm on cold planes and for blending in with New Yorkers when I arrive. This is cashmere for $93.
• White Pants – Comfortable as jeans but more stylish. $89.
• Jean Jacket – It can get really cold on those planes. This denim jacket can be used as a pillow without wrinkling. $36.
• Flat Shoes – Easy to remove for x-rays and comfy for hauling around the terminals.
• Prada Portfolio – My presentations demand to travel in style. Ha! Yeah right, I am really taking my beat up Kenneth Cole bag. $704.
• Hermes Scarf – This scarf design includes the names of countries around the world and their distance from Paris. How much more appropriate can you get? $256.
• Watch – To keep track of my schedule.
• New Yorker – A must have on any sort of trip.
• Rosebud Salve – I was so worried when lipsticks were originally banned, I can’t fly without this stuff. Great for keeping your lips protected against dry plane air. $5.

I’ll be in New York Wednesday through Friday. Don’t expect many posts while I am away, a laptop is not one of my must-have travel items. (Nicole, want to be a guest blogger again?)
