8 New Stylish Travel Essentials

When you’re traveling, whether on a road trip or a flight, comfort is key but that doesn’t mean style needs to be sacrificed. From footwear to handbags, here are eight new chic items that will take you to your destination.

1.Fitflop ankle boots £150

Every FitFlop product is biomechanically engineered – which means it’s designed to complement your body structure, joint alignment and natural movement.

Sporting chunky heels, leather uppers, stitch detail and a full inside zip for easy on/off and you can walk for miles in them. And they’re easy to remove in the dreaded airport security check.

2.Fitflop lightweight trainers £110

The Vitamin, a sleek super-light sneaker is one of the most comfortable on the market – ideal for long city walking tours.
