J.Lo Just Broke My Cardinal Rule of Airport Dressing
We're all in agreement that Jennifer Lopez can do no wrong, but I can't help but question her sartorial sensibilities on her most recent trip to the airport. The decision to wear a denim boiler suit seems, well, a tad impractical. Again, no issues with denim, obviously, but wearing a one-piece on a flight? That's a no from me, J.Lo. In fact, it breaks my cardinal rule of airport dressing: no jumpsuits.
Aside from the fact that she may or may not have been flying private, the issue remains: who wants to get naked in an airport bathroom? Not me, and probably not Mrs. Affleck, either. So, allow me to suggest an easier way to get a similar look: baggy blue jeans.
Yes, it's still wearing jeans to the airport, but at least you don't have to disrobe completely if and when nature calls at 35,000 feet. Ahead, check out 9 pairs of wide-leg jeans that we love, and maybe even Jennifer Lopez will consider wearing the next time she takes flight.
On Jennifer Lopez: R13 jumpsuit; Prada shoes; Nick Fouquet hat; Brunello Cucinelli tote.
Shop Baggy Jeans Instead of Jumpsuits
Comfortable enough for coach, but cute enough for first class.
Low-rise styles work well for travel, provided you have a longer top to tuck in.
I wore these jeans during my last three-hour delay on the tarmac—and again the next day when my flight was rescheduled.
