Skip the jeans on long flights, long dresses could be a pain (tho i havent tried any skirts longer then my calf) and keep in mind the weather at your destination. I would ALWAYS reccomend a nice soft scarf to use as a pillow or mini blanket, i know that has saved me on many a flight! thanks for the tips guys! i would definatly agree with most of the posts here.

Sometimes I get some crazy stares, but I always feel fabulous.

And tara, while jeans are fine for a short flight, if you're flying overseas, you definitely do not want to be wearing jeans for a 14+ hour flight! I would opt for leggings or tights with a cute, soft tunic or dress, a nice warm cardi, and either flat ankle boots or ballet flats, depending on the season, And a blanket tucked in my carry-on would be a smart idea next time (on the last leg of my flight home from France I froze to death!)

Blair makes a great point, it's important to dress nicely when you travel because airline agents tend to treat you with more respect (since you're not showing up in their workplace dressed like a slob), and you might be bumped up to first class where they have a dresscode! I was lucky enough to be bumped up last week for my longer flight, and I felt very pampered. It was well-worth it!

This outfit seems cute but I have to agree with laurenc that it is not very pratical, espically on a long flight. I always oupt for jeans and ballet flats because they easily come off. Also, a really comfy jacket because it gets cold on the plane. I like how I have similar PJ’s to Miley, but I never worn them out in public.

Thanks for the cold weather warning! Actually, I was born in Alaska (although I spent some of my life living in Seattle) and it does get pretty warm up in Anchorage during the summer. I looked at the weather report yesterday and it was 75 degrees! Yay! Plus, the long days of sunlight make for warmer evenings. I think I'll be good to go with the jacket, but you're right, it's always good to check the temp before you fly. Hi Krista! Thanks for the cold weather warning!

I travel almost every other week to buy for ModCloth, and I always wear maxi dresses on the plane. They're the best! I also have the Brick Lane Bag and it's perfect for travel - lightweight and big enough to hold all my magazines, books, sweaters, scarves, etc that I might need. Turi, you totally read my mind!

I always try to wear something really classy and chic while I travel, but also comfortable. Maybe my super comfy (and wrinkle free!) dress with a nice little cardigan. One time my family was so dressed up, we got moved up to first class! That beats wearing pajama pants any ol' day. ;) Great ideas!!
