Does The Way You Dress At The Airport Really Matter?
We all want to be as comfortable as we can be on long flights. We want to wear our favourite pyjamas, tie our hair into the messiest bun and basically not bother at all.
After all sitting in a seat for 14 hours is not ideal for anyone.
But often times in life we have to make a CHOICE:
- Be stopped by the airport security at every checkpoint and have them open your bag to prove you’re not carrying any explosives
- Or pass through the airport security, keeping your dignity and self-respect and have a somewhat uncomfortable flight later.
Which one would you choose?
I think you should dress nicely for airports. You’re surrounded by people coming from all walks of life. You should look your best.
— Casey Neistat
Before answering that. Let me tell what happened with me on my flight to The Sydney International Airport.
As it was my first time travelling alone I was all hyped up. I knew I had to look good for the pictures so I dolled up as much as I could.
I wore my favourite skinny jeans, a pretty top, Straightened my hair and did my makeup.
