How to Dress Comfortably for your Next Long Trip
When you travel as much as I do, you soon realize the importance of being comfortable during your journey. The longer your voyage is, the more important this becomes. If you are on a long flight, train or coach journey, you need to dress comfortably to feel comfortable. Here are a few tips to help you to ensure that is the case.

Wear Soft and Flexible Clothes
The way you prepare for your journey will have an immense impact on how comfortable you feel. Typically travelling in a pair of Jeggings instead of thick jeans is the better option. Generally speaking, the softer and more flexible your clothing is, the more comfortable you will feel. There is nothing worse than having to sit in the same position for hours while wearing something that cuts into you.
Loose Fitting
You also want the clothes that you wear to be loose-fitting. It is no good looking like a fashion diva at the airport if you feel uncomfortable on the plane.
Choose Wrinkle Free Fabric
If you want to look your best when you arrive at your destination, avoid wearing clothes that wrinkle easily. You can find out which fabrics work well for travelling by clicking this link.
Think about the Weather
In most cases, you will have to face a significant difference between the weather at your destination and your departure point. You need to bear this in mind and dress accordingly.
Dress in Layers
A great way of dealing with this potential issue is to dress in layers. If it is cold at the airport, you will be thankful for wearing a cardigan and a coat. Whereas, if it’s not-so-cold, all you have to do is take it off to reveal a short-sleeved top. Just ensure you have enough space in your travel bag to accommodate your cardigan and other items.
Be Prepared For Delays
It is also sensible to be ready for travel delays. Strange weather can cause transport hubs to suffer inflation, meaning delays are likely to occur more commonly. So, pop extra undergarments, a fresh t-shirt and some basic toiletries into your hand luggage. Having a small packet of wet wipes in your pocket is also a good idea. At the time, there are flight or train delays, the toilets, get very busy. So, it’s always advisable to carry additional soap or liquid handwash. Wet wipes solve this issue and enable you to wipe over other areas of your body so you can stay relatively fresh and clean. Also, if you take medication, carry a few days supplies in your handbag.
