Traveling Soon? Here Are 10+ Chic, Comfortable Celebrity Outfits To Inspire Your Next Airport #OOTD!
The heat is on, new trends are emerging, and airfare promo deals are popping left and right. We all know what these mean—it's time to book your next vacation getaway, because summer is officially upon us!
Here at METRO, we believe that a truly stylish woman is fashionable anytime, anywhere—whether it be in the office, at brunch, in a party, or even while traveling! Take it from our METRO Magazine cover girls Heart Evangelista and Kim Jones, who are tied at Top 1 in this year's list of METRO Most Stylish Women. Artist, actress, and social media influencer Heart graced the magazine cover donning a sophisticated ensemble on board a jet plane. Meanwhile, digital creative and entrepreneur Kim was clad in a classic, all-white number inside a private yacht. Even while in transit, these women embody what it means to be a stylish METRO woman!

This week, we shine the spotlight on airport OOTDs. As previously mentioned in our 2018 airport style watch, the first step to traveling in style is mastering the (challenging) art of looking fashionable while in transit. While no one expects you to spend long layovers wearing a form-fitting dress and stilettos, you wouldn't want to be seen donning rugged flip-flops either. Who knows who you might bump into at the terminal? A friend, a VIP, a business partner, or who knows—maybe even a future partner! (Our digital cover girl and bride-to-be Camille Co once told Metro.Style that she met her fiancé on a flight bound for Bacolod.)

Ahead, we've compiled stylish celebrity jet-setters in chic, casual outfits. For your dose of fashion inspiration, keep scrolling!
Martine Ho
Wearing a light trench coat a la Martine Ho is a sure way to elevate any outfit. One can sport even the most basic outfit inside—say, a black top and comfy leggings—but layer it with a stylish trench coat, and you're sure to turn heads in the terminal. It's also one way to stay warm inside the freezing cabin!

Nothing can go wrong with a well-tailored, black outfit—take it from Gemma Chan. The Crazy Rich Asians star was clad in a monochromatic jumpsuit, paired with leather boots and an abstract Louis Vuitton hand bag. To keep the look laid-back and relaxed, she styled her tresses in subtle beach waves.

A flattering pair of jeans is a travel must-have, and fashion stylist Liz Uy knows this to be true. She was even clad in a denim-on-denim number worthy of a double-take! Liz styled a basic black turtleneck with a denim kimono and printed Fendi jeans—a fun look that's anything but basic.

Finally, 2018 Hip and Happening Mom Cat Arambulo-Antonio made a sartorial statement in an all-black number. The vlogger, reality TV judge, entrepreneur, and frequent traveler sported a completely comfortable yet chic outfit.
