If you've been busy booking fall trips now that summer has basically come to a close, take my advice: Don't let your travel outfits be an afterthought. Just in time, Gigi Hadid wore the perfect easy fall travel uniform while jetting out of JFK over the weekend. No, it didn't include leggings, and yes, you will probably see it on plenty of It girls in the coming months.
Listen—I have nothing against leggings and wear them often. I almost always choose something else when I'm heading to the airport, and more often than not, it's jeans. Many would argue that jeans are far from the most comfortable option for a travel day, but there are plenty of pairs out there that are surprisingly comfortable, and all of them look more polished than leggings. With her light-wash straight-leg jeans, Hadid wore a pink crewneck cardigan from her own line, Guest in Residence, over a white T-shirt. To top things off, she opted for a brown suede Liffner bag and Miu Miu loafers paired with white crew socks. No notes.
A cardigan is the ideal layering piece for a travel day, and the classic way Hadid styled hers earns a 10/10 from me. Keep scrolling to see the look for yourself and shop the pieces needed to re-create it for your upcoming flights.
