eye of the gate

If you are traveling soon you must understand a couple of things:

Gals: high heels are not cool at the airport… it doesn’t matter where you are going, who you are traveling with or who is picking you up at the airport. Comfortable shoes are a must! This doesn’t mean that you need to wear your running shoes (unless you will run a marathon straight from the plane). If you don’t care about the security checkpoint and walking on barefoot my recommendation is Cole Haan flats, but if you feel icky -like I sometimes feel- and prefer to walk with socks your are fine with Converse. Please no sandals or flip flops (even if you are going to Cancun, those could wait!). Items that you shouldn’t forget: cardigan, scarf and a book.

I am always cold! I could be on the hottest city and I have a cardigan shoved in my handbag… It’s inexplicable for me why someone would travel wearing a bermuda, skirt or dress.

Guys: keep it simple. Comfortable T-shirt, jeans and casual shoes. I’ve heard the complain of the shoe laces, if this applies to you, Car Shoes are your way to go. Please NO tank tops.
