The Thanksgiving holiday is right around the corner, which means holiday travel season is in full swing. Although we look forward to seeing long distance loved ones and catching up with hometown friends, there’s nothing quite like fighting relentless traffic and waiting in long airport lines to kill a sense of holiday cheer. Reports have suggested that this year, even in the face of the economic recession, traveling will be up a surprising 20 percent from last year – which means 20 percent more frustration en route to your Thanksgiving dinner. Fortunately, we don’t need to let our style suffer, even when our moods are taking a nosedive. Below, check out the best ways to travel in style and comfort, straight from our favorite holiday jetsetters.
Since Jessica Simpson has largely become bicoastal thanks to managing her brand out of New York City, but still calling Los Angeles home, she is one of our favorite frequent flying fashionistas. Her Jessica Simpson Collection is a favorite brand among shoppers and fashion insiders alike, so when it comes to her own personal travel style, she has a serious reputation to protect. You’ll never catch Jessica in sweats and sneakers at the airport. Instead, she opts for comfortable and stylish flowing capes or knit ponchos – and pairs the look with skinny jeans or leggings to balance out her shape. Steal her style by reaching for your favorite flowy top next time you’re leaving town. Throw in a few fashionable extras like wedge-heeled boots, and you’ll stay comfy and warm in the cabin, without looking frumpy.
To promote her new film, “Love and Other Drugs,” our favorite brainy brunette Anne Hathaway has recently been globetrotting and talk show hopping.

The black patent handles add a stylish touch and the bag’s large size leaves plenty of room for carry-on essentials. Steal her look at any price point – just remember to choose a neutral color like black or gray that won’t show dirt or grime from the airport floor. Now, go enjoy traveling in star style!
