Winter Work Travel Attire

Travel-attire-winterWhen traveling for work do you ever wonder what is the right attire to wear? Oftentimes we think being comfy in sweats is the way to go. However, if you are traveling for work with other colleagues and you work in fashion or in finance, the rules may not be so relaxed since how you dress is also part of your job. If you have been traveling with the same college suitcase you have been using since college, now is the time to invest in carry on luggage. Carry on luggage like your handbag is something that is essential in a travel work wardrobe. A good pair of black ankle boots, a black blazer,  a day handbag, and a night shoulder bag are all essentials. Oh and don’t forget a great iPhone case. Something fun is ok for your phone case.
