Back to Reality....Soon

My honey and I spent a nice, long weekend in Ft. Lauderdale and sadly our fun in the sun has come to an end. Oh, how I cried to leave this view behind:

Seriously, I can still feel that breeze!!

Now, I don't know about you guys, but airport dressing is a bit of a stressful fashion occasion. How do you stay chic, feel comfortable and not be a hot mess when you reach your destination? It seems like celebrities don't have quite the same issue:



So I took a page from their book and just kept it simple.



A simple maxi dress for the hot weather, mixed with a blazer for the cool airplane temps equaled easy peasy, ready for a getaway. I added some dangly earrings for interest and although this outfit is a little too simple for my liking, a leopard belt was added later because no outfit is complete without some rowr.


What's your airport dressing formula? Do you find dressing for a vacation stressful?



Outfit Details:
White blazer and orange maxi dress- Forever 21 (pretty dress alternative here, short and tiered alternative here, plus size alternative here) (similar blazer here and here, alternative here)

    Oh that last picture of you is fab! Love the maxi with the white blazer.

    I usually wear what's comfy. Depending on the vacation destination it could be stressful. Europe trips (and hopefully one will happen next year) are a little more stressful especially with the whole weight limit thing and one bag per person.

    I like the color of the dress. Very pretty.

    For the airport I stick with simple layers and wear my heaviest shoes on the plane.

    I don't find vacation packing stressful. I decide on a color theme before I start and pack versatile items within that pallete that will photograph well. I'm up because I'm packing for my vacation now. I leave in 8 hours :).

    @Of the Comely- Sounds like you are quite a smart packer. I thought about doing a color scheme so that I could mix and match, but there were just certain outfits I wanted to wear.
    Enjoy your vacation!!
