Kate Beckinsale Wore 6-Inch Platforms to the Airport That'd Make TSA's Jaws Drop
I have a couple of rules when it comes to airport dressing. Number one: I always wear a hoodie so I can put the hood up and protect my hair from the back of the seat. Number two: I wear Nike Cortez sneakers because they're supremely easy to slide on and off at security and at my seat when it's nap time. Kate Beckinsale, on the other hand, seems to have her own travel fashion rules—and I respect her fearlessness.
Photographed at LAX in Los Angeles, Beckinsale wore Y.R.U. Havoc Boots ($140), which feature lug soles and towering heels. With laces and buckles, they don't look like the easiest shoes to take off at security, so let's hope she has TSA PreCheck. Another impracticality: The cumbersome boots take up a lot of precious legroom space on the plane, but if you're flying private, perhaps that's not an issue. (I wouldn't know!) Beckinsale pulled off the look with ease, but I'm not positive I could do the same. Scroll down to see Kate Beckinsale's stylish new airport outfit.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
