Not all of us are frequent flyers. Neither is everyone able to afford the kind of fancy vacations celebrities take, right? But we surely can afford their looks. You heard it right! Traveling in style is the whole new fad right now and gone are the days where putting on sweats, a worn out T-shirt, house shoes and a messy bun was considered cutesy. I mean, yes but even a messy look needs to be put together. And, that’s what we can learn from our celebrity pals and their sartorial airport musings. Besides, it’s easier to get garbed casually, than the red carpet ensembles, which are more often than not far-fetched.
So, let’s check out the most sought-after looks, by some of our tarmac-bound stars who created turbulence for all the right reasons. What more, you could even get the same look at a much affordable price! Can’t wait? Me too, let’s hop right in…
1. Kareena’s Kurta Fleek
Kareena is one actor who often lets her attire talk. She makes her own style statement and how! It was all loud and evident through her pregnancy too. Palazzos were a great welcome break from the overdose of leggings we were clinging to. The Palazzos make for a chic and classy airport look while giving you comfort. My idea of comfort has just been re-defined. Plus, I’m a fan of all the tribal and junk jewelry. All you need to complete this look is a pristine white kurta with white palazzos and break the monochrome with an indigo colored jacket like Kareena or any other contrasting color that’s just as pleasant and palpable. You could match your bag with the jacket, go for a natural smokey eye makeup, beach curls or a messy bun with reflectors. There you go!

2. Malaika’s Red Suede Obsession
Is there a magic potion out there that none of us know of? Have one more good look, and you would agree. Malaika has not aged one day from the time she had a baby, one after and fourteen years ever since. Her beauty has remained untouched. Every aspiring style icon looks up to this diva for inspiration in fitness and style. If you have been tracking her social media pages, you’d agree. Her beach vacations, strict fitness regime, fashion statements, sweet ginger streaked hair and of course her airport looks. She’s matchless! And, here’s proof. Jet-setting can be fun and everything, but once you’re up there, it can get uncomfortably cold. So let’s try and decode this stylish and relatively simple ensemble. A monochrome look with a long jacket, tank top, skin-hugging jeans and color blocking it with the suede boots, which she’s obsessing over and now we cannot stop either. Complete this with a suede matte finish lipstick, reflectors, and score high!

3. Deepika’s Athleisure Array
She’s one of those new age actresses with a vintage charm. Deepika just came, saw, conquered and is still ruling Bollywood from the minute she set her foot in. Not just with her action but also with her style statements and jet-setting attires. Like we have all known Athleisure is catching up, and like wildfire. I could not have been happier than to see Deepika sporting this girl-next-door look. Airports need snug and comfortable clothes, and not to forget your footwear. That’s a deal breaker, really! Don it with a hoodie or sweatshirt, a pair of shades and some nude lipstick, perhaps. Oh, and a messy bun!

4. Alia’s Shorts, Boots And Shades
Bollywood’s very own cupcake, loved and adored by everyone. Like Shah Rukh said on the chat show Koffee With Karan – ‘She is too good, too soon.’ We couldn’t agree more! Her prodigal action, choice of scripts, unapologetic sense of self and her clothes, be it style statements or airport sightings are always spot on. Shorts, boots and shades – yes, the case in point. Mix and match, play around with colors, and what you get is a total chic look to travel in style.

5. Karisma Kapoor’s Black Monochrome
The Kapoor sisters always top the charts with their jet-setting ensembles. Their dresses are always a hit and never misses a chance to make heads turn. Karisma seems like a typical girl-next-door with a simple yet sophisticated choice of clothing, and mostly in black. She pulled off the all-black monochrome look like a rockstar. I cannot wait to try this one out. A simple set with a black T-shirt, scowl pants, scarf, shoes, and shades! Not to forget, the matte pink lip shade! I love her minimalistic makeup, neatly tied pony and everything else that is rightly put together, just the way it’s meant to be.

6. Anushka’s Holiday Comfort
Anushka has been in the news, a lot lately. For the most part – being spotted at cricket stadiums cheering for Virat Kohli, walking in and out of airports, again with Virat Kohli.But we know one thing for sure—Virat Kohli and her stunning runway looks are constant. She’s often seen wearing comfort clothing just how it must be during travel. It’s not the red carpet, so classy and stylish will do! Let’s start from down south; she got me at the flip-flops because airports involve long walks with luggage for company. She’s just one of us too! Let’s save those red pumps for the house party! In a simple pair of skinny leggings, a soft T-shirt, baseball cap, sunglasses and a handbag, she just proved it’s all about being minimalistic and chic!

7. Shilpa Shetty’s Distressed Jeans
From being a yoga aficionado to authoring the book ‘The Great Indian Diet,’ Shilpa has come a long way in her career and otherwise. Her innate sense of style, chirpy voice and smile makes her a real star. As they say, beauty is in the details and bringing it all together. Distressed jeans, neck choker and slip ons are must haves in every girl’s closet. We just need to put them all together. A look, most of us can pull off, right out of our wardrobes, either way, here’s everything you need.

8. Kangna’s Maxi Vibe
Kangna is known for her unique choices, in every sense. Her unapologetic take on life, her unperturbed spirit, and distinct fashion statements—these are a few things that define her. Each of her airport look is unique and chic. However, it’s her attitude that does the magic. That’s something we all need to take away. This maxi and boots look, is a trendy melange, I would otherwise not consider. Not for a long-haul flight at least. But, that sets her apart. If you love Maxi dresses, try this one and get ready to get heads turning.
