Kendall Jenner Proves No Closet Is Complete Without a Nude Bodysuit
2015 Bauer-Griffin1/8Celebrity airport outfits tend to fall into one of two categories: stretchy, oversized, one-step-away-from-pajamas goodness (Stars, they’re just like us!), or uncomfortably dressed up to the point you just know they’re putting it on for the paparazzi. So when we do spot the rare travel look hitting that sweet spot right in the middle—easygoing, but still photog-ready — we’re got to give the lady behind it props. It’s a tough balance to strike!
Today, that shout-out goes to Kendall Jenner, who hit the TSA line over the weekend in a laid-back pair of faded flares over a stretchy bodysuit (aka, the secret to a perfectly tucked in top), dressed up with a draped kimono and low heels that won’t slow down the walk from one gate to another. Although each piece is relaxed enough not to start riding up or pinching mid-trip, together, the combination has such a striking mix of textures and shapes you could easily take it straight from baggage claim to a meeting (or, in Kenny’s case, probably several).
Because it’s got us seriously reconsidering our habit of boarding flights in five year old leggings and our brother’s old football hoodies, we’ve shopped the full ensemble ahead. Read on to make it your own!

3/8If you can swing it, don’t be scared to drop a little more than usual on a high quality bodysuit. In a neutral color like this Maison Margiela option here, it’s a foundation piece you can layer under everything — from denim, to trousers to skirts — for a smooth, tucked-in T-shirt effect.

4/8Rather than opt for skinny jeans — again — try a pair of slim bells. The silhouette has the same off-duty versatility, but feels far more of-the-moment.

5/8Never underestimate the power of a statement coat! A kimono design, in particular, can give the most basic of outfits a vintage-y, boho-cool twist.

6/8Along with a manageable, just-high-enough heel and polished suede finish, these d’Orsay style pumps have a fit you can easily slip in and out of. So handy when you’re ready to switch to cozy socks on the plane!

7/8So you didn’t quite get the mid-flight nap that you wanted? With a glamorous pair of oversized aviators, no one but you will know.

8/8While your carry-on purse should be roomy and practical, adding a furry pom-pom charm gives it a playful, whimsical touch. We love how this style has the embellishment built in!
