From long-wait lines at TSA to flight delays and lost baggage, these days a trip to the airport is anything but plane sailing. Enter Blake Lively, who arrived in Nice yesterday looking fresh-faced and carefree. While she covered her magnificent hair with a panama hat, we appreciate the touch of panache about her monochromatic look. Breaking up the black, Lively opted for a raspberry coat from Gucci that was casually cinched at the waist. Never one to forgo accessories, she kept things simple with menswear-inspired slippers from Christian Louboutin and a Givenchy cross-body. To amp up the chic factor, we suggest swapping out her discreet black purse for a berry-colored evening bag with gilt tassel. It’s the kind of piece that accessorizes rather well with a Palme d’Or.
