Mom-Approved Travel Fashion

My mom knows how to dress for travel—period. She’s a pro at toeing the line between practical and polished, while still making sure every outfit feels comfortable. After all the airport days and long-haul car rides we’ve taken together, I can picture exactly what she wears on the go. Her standards are high, so the fact that so many of her travel staples come from Amazon’s fashion section speaks volumes.

To channel my mom’s travel style, I’m shopping Amazon’s range of comfortable-yet-chic pants, put-together-looking layers, and podiatrist-approved, celeb-worn sneakers to wear on my next trip.

This bag is one of my mom’s favorites to bring on long-weekends. It fits a ton, looks rich without veering into preppy territory, and is structured without being stiff. “The straps feel sturdy and comfortable on the shoulder, even when the bag has some weight in it,” one shopper said, while another added, “This is my go to carry on for air travel—[it] fits easily under the seat and [is] large enough for all essentials.”

My mom calls her New Balance kicks a “core sneaker,” and both podiatrists and It Girls like Scarlett Johansson and Hailey Bieber happen to agree. The EVA midsole is supportive and cushy, while the mesh-and-suede upper offers plenty of breathability for summer travel. Plus, they’re just so classic and easy to style.

One of the many things I admire about my mom is her ability to make leggings look dressy. Her secret? A cropped cut with a subtle flare. This pair fits the bill, and its side pockets make it a practical choice for travel days. She’d wear them with a button-down in warm temps or a longline jacket come fall.

Speaking of button-down shirts, my mom owns a million of them. She wears them to work, sure, but they often make an appearance at the airport, too. Sometimes, she layers one over a tee; other times, she wears it solo. An oversized option like the one above adds a little extra comfort while still looking perfectly polished.

Adidas Breaknet Sneakers

Adidas sneakers are another staple on my mom’s shoe rack, and she trusts them for travel days. This slim Breaknet pair is under $50, goes with everything, and is supportive enough for long treks from the TSA checkpoint to your gate. Once you get to your destination, they’re easy to style with whatever is in your suitcase.

When my mom isn’t wearing her cropped leggings, she’s wearing cropped jeans. They’re a great summer travel pick because they allow for extra airflow, but look refined sans effort. Right now, the above style is Amazon’s best-selling pair of women’s jeans, thanks to its stretchy material that makes all-day wear extra bearable.

Crescent bags are a seamless step up from your standard crossbody, and my mom adores the shape. This nylon pick is great for travel days because it’s easy to wipe down, durable, and sleek. “The side pockets fit my phone in one, and the other holds my sanitized wipes, hand antibacterial spray, mirror, and pills case,” one shopper wrote, adding, “This is the perfect everyday bag and also will be great for travel.”
