Do you treat the airport like your runway? Probably not. Boarding a long-haul flight is more about dressing for comfort than flexing a look. That being said, you can still look stylish—just take a cue from Angelina Jolie, who was spotted arriving at the JFK airport in New York looking cozy yet extremely put-together. Striking that balance is an art, sure, but it’s all in the subtle styling details. Let’s take a closer look. shall we?

Jolie opted for a monochromatic black ensemble: the easiest way to instantly dress up an outfit. Her long maxi dress and structured double-breasted coat both looked elegant enough, but they provided an easy, roomy wear for the plane. Her ballet flats, while sleek, are also the ideal shoe for slipping on and off in the TSA line, not to mention they’re comfortable for running to your gate. Then, there was Jolie’s choice of luggage, which added to the overall style factor. Her sleek titanium luggage and monogrammed Celine carry-on bag—with a hint of a monogrammed Louis Vuitton pouch inside—added a dash of designer flair to the look.

So, the key to looking fashion-forward at the airport? Do like Jolie and embrace the stealthy all-black outfit, then add a great flat and designer It bags. Plus, her movie star-worthy shades may just get you a seat upgrade, too.
