This post is adapted\u00a0from Metanoya Webb’s blog, Globetrotting Stiletto<\/a>. \u00a0Last month, she got us ready for the Caribbean<\/a>\u00a0and now she shares her travel blogger fashion tips on how to look\u00a0like a fabulous boss lady when conducting travel blog business. \u00a0 One of the misconceptions of travel bloggers \u00a0is that we’re all middle aged, fanny pack carrying bunch.\u00a0\u00a0Metanoya proves otherwise.\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Globetrotting Stiletto on Travel Blogger Fashion<\/h2>\n

Before I dish on the happenings at the third annual\u00a0NY TRAV FEST<\/a>, I must\u00a0recognize my Globetrotting Stilettos who came out to support GTS at our very first public event.\u00a0Whether we\u2019re\u00a0invested\u00a0social media homies or have a personal relationship, we appreciate you. Yes, YOU! Globetrotting Stiletto, the brand, is less about me and more about the community of stylish jet-setters we serve\u2014fresh folk who are committed to travel. The ones who go because they have to. They need to see, feel, taste, touch, immerse themselves\u00a0in culture, scour the globe for inspiration, treasures that exist outside the confines of their everyday lives. They\u2019re\u00a0not afraid to splurge but prefer to save. When they do splurge, it\u2019s on experiences, seldom \u2018things,\u2019 experiences matter more. Now that that\u2019s off my heart, here\u2019s what went down..<\/p>\n

My girlfriend observed that I tend to gravitate towards the color orange for travel events. Acute observation. In no way was this intentional. The rich hue looks great on my complexion, I have a closet full of bright orange attire. I wore a perforated sunkist Vince dress to the\u00a0NYT TRAVEL SHOW<\/a>\u00a0and rocked\u00a0ZARA\u2019S<\/a>\u00a0sleeveless linen waistcoat to the 2015 Travel Fest. I paired the tangerine shell with a white tank,\u00a0ARMANI<\/a>\u00a0boyfriend jeans, a\u00a0STATEMENT NECKLACE<\/a>\u00a0and nude\u00a0SO KATE<\/a>\u00a0pumps. I am my brand. There was no way I was showing up to speak before travel industry professionals on a branding panel without stilettos. No way. I survived in my 5-inch Christian Louboutins far longer that I thought I would, strutting throughout the exhibition space networking with other attendees, standing before the GTS x Sydne’s Sweets table handing out cupcakes during our tasting, my dogs supported my stiletto commitment. The Kate Spade Taxi flats that I live in were on deck but I didn’t change into those until the panel and tasting wrapped. I am my brand. You are your brand. Always remember that. Appropriate travel business attire is imperative when participating in these types of events, come correct when representing yourself, people tend to take you more seriously.<\/p>\n

“Come correct when representing yourself, people tend to take you more seriously.” \u00a0I could not say it better! \u00a0My look<\/a> is more button downs paired with patterns for meetings and I live in DVF wrap dresses for events. One of things I’ve learned is that your brand has to meet your niche, especially when you’re meeting with potential clients.\u00a0What are your travel blogger fashion tips? \u00a0What is the look of your brand?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
