Laura Harrier Found the Airport Trouser-and-Shoe Formula That Looks So Much More Elevated Than Trainers and Jeans

No matter how many times I try to plan, there are some occasions that still leave me stumped on what to wear.
Dressing for a sporting event, for example, always feels like a balancing act between going casual and embracing a thematic approach. But if there’s one occasion that truly throws me, it’s airport dressing. Torn between craving maximum comfort and wanting to touch down looking chic, this particular style conundrum never gets easier
Over time, I’ve become something of an airport-style magpie, constantly on the lookout for in-flight outfits that strike the perfect balance between comfort, practicality and style. And today, my radar went off when I spotted this chic travel look on actor Laura Harrier. Passing through TSA in style, Harrier put together an ensemble that was not only chic but thoughtfully functional.
Eschewing the ubiquitous jeans-and-trainers combination I’ve seen at airports countless times, Harrier opted for something much more elevated yet equally comfortable: wide-leg trousers and pull-on boots. The trousers—cut with a flowing, unstructured silhouette—are, in my opinion, the ultimate base for a long-haul flight. Not only do they offer ease of movement, but they also have that polished, put-together feel that jeans can’t always match.
What really stood out, though, was her choice of footwear. Whilst trainers are often the go-to for airport attire, I actually find them a bit overrated for the occasion. Between fumbling with laces and a fast-moving security line, they’re not as effortless as they appear. Harrier’s slip-on boots, however, were a revelation. With a thick sole for extra cushioning and zero fuss when it comes to removal, they’re a practical yet stylish upgrade for winter travel.
Another detail worth noting? Harrier’s tonal approach. Sticking to a chic palette of black and charcoal, she created a streamlined and cohesive look—a simple but effective tip for anyone who wants to appear extra polished. Finally landing on an airport formula I think I can rely on, I'll be taking style tips from Harrier from here on out.
