DRESS TO KILL<br />
Lauren Messiah is Westfi eld’s<br />
resident LA stylist, an expert<br />
at bringing designer fashion to<br />
clients at a fraction of the price.<br />
We ask her how to travel in style<br />
HOW CAN WE STOP OVER-<br />
PACKING FOR HOLIDAYS?<br />
Planning is the key. People<br />
typically wear about half of what<br />
they pack. Try packing versatile<br />
pieces that can be mixed and<br />
matched to create fresh looks.<br />
WHAT FABRICS TRAVEL WELL?<br />
Jersey is lightweight, comfortable,<br />
stylish, and when packed<br />
correctly will stay crease-free.<br />
Denim is always crease-free and<br />
stylish. Go with dark-wash jeans<br />
in a classic cut.<br />
YOUR PET TRAVEL<br />
FASHION PEEVE?<br />
Nothing says “not only am I on<br />
vacation but my wardrobe is too”<br />
like a tracksuit. If you’re seeking<br />
comfort, go with a nice pair of<br />
leggings paired with a pullover<br />
sweater or a cashmere wrap.<br />
Finish the look with practical and<br />
stylish accessories.<br />
WHAT IS INDISPENSABLE FOR<br />
GOING FROM DAY TO NIGHT?<br />
A statement necklace — it can<br />
take a day dress into the evening<br />
and dress up jeans and a top.<br />
The same can be achieved with<br />
a scarf. And always pack a<br />
versatile pair of fl ats and heels to<br />
transform an outfi t.<br />
