Lisa from Blackpink

2/9

Lisa , who was recently named Asia's most beautiful woman according to TCCAsia's list, proves that you don’t need much to stand out from the crowd.

Her  pared-down look consisting of a long-sleeved top, high-waisted jeans, shoulder bag and loafers is effortless. We especially love the addition of a pendant necklace.

Taeyeon from Girls’ Generation

3/9

Swapping your contact lenses for a pair of glasses not only adds a dose of preppy chic, but it also prevents any discomfort and irritation from the dry, recycled aeroplane air. Taeyeon also shows us how to wear an oversized knit stylishly - that's slightly off-shoulders.

Suzy Bae

4/9

While many might opt for neutral (read: plain) colours while travelling, Suzy Bae isn’t afraid to shake things up with brighter colours. She balanced her statement-making fiery red tulle skirt with a light grey jumper and the popular Dior Book Tote.

IU

Another way to dip your toes and add a pop of colour to your ensemble is to go with a bright knit like beloved singer IU. Matching it with an oversized jacket and distressed denim ensures that you look youthful and fresh.

Joy from Red Velvet

6/9

To help you get in the mood of your tropical island vacation, why not start with your airport fashion? Take a leaf from Joy of Red Velvet and dress up in a breezy floral sundress and match it with a large tote (which is a bag size you should be seen carrying, btw) that can store all your travel essentials - our kind of bag to take on vacation.

Jennie from Blackpink

7/9

From the high-waisted mini skirt, Blair Waldorf-esque headband to the pink scrunchie around her arm, fresh-faced Jennie, who was No. 3 on TCCAsia's Most Beautiful Faces in Asia 2019 list, loves the 90s fashion, if you can’t already tell.

Sunmi

8/9

Say you woke up late and you’re rushing to catch your flight before the gate closes. There’s no reason why you still can’t look on point. Just throw on a grungy leather jacket like Sunmi and you’re good to go. But we suggest opting for low-cut shoes to avoid the hassle of getting in and out of high-cut boots at immigration.

Nayeon from Twice

9/9

Blazers are not just great for the office. Twice’s Nayeon is proof that you can rock the sharp piece at the airport and dress it down with a white top, mustard wide-legged pants and a comfy pair of classic white sneakers.
