Anrabess Two-piece Set
$42
I prefer to dress up when I travel (meaning I wear a comfy shift dress and sneakers), but sometimes, I just want to cozy up if I’m flying in the early hours of the morning or late at night.

The travel-ready duo includes a half-zip oversized sweatshirt with high-waisted track pants, and it’s available in 21 colors. Even better? The set is 30 percent off right now.
Fitrell Compression Socks

It’s not unusual to experience some swelling while on a long-haul flight. Sitting in one position for hours can reduce circulation and lead to uncomfortable swelling and stiffness. Thankfully, you can take preemptive measures by wearing compression socks.

One shopper noted that the slippers can easily be folded up into a small pouch to “take up little space” when traveling.
