Easy, Effortless, and Vacation-Ready

When I travel, I pack with a purpose: pieces that work hard, feel effortless, and give me options. These three looks are currently topping my packing list—not just because they’re beautiful, but because they can take on multiple roles wherever I land.

1. The Cardigan That Starts Conversations
This cardigan has become one of those pieces I always reach for when I want to feel put-together but playful. I styled it here over a printed skirt for a more layered, eye-catching vibe—but I’ve also thrown it over denim shorts with a tank for travel days. It gives a bit of whimsy, a bit of structure, and goes with more than you’d think.

Style note: The skirt could easily be paired with a simple white tee or linen shirt—ideal for mixing and matching throughout a trip.

2. The Slip Dress That Does Both
This sea-inspired slip dress walks that perfect line between casual and elevated. I’ve worn it with flat sandals and barely-there makeup for daytime, but with the right belt and a bold lip, it instantly shifts into evening mode.

Style note: It’s one of those fabrics that travels well—no wrinkles, no fuss. You can roll it up in your suitcase and still look pulled together.

3. The Cut-Out Dress That Feels Like Summer
This dress is vacation in a single outfit. The subtle cut-outs give it a modern shape, but the soft, postcard-like print makes it feel classic. I love how it moves and catches the breeze—just begging for a day out exploring or lunch somewhere sun-drenched.

Style note: I’d switch the platforms for white sneakers if I were walking around all day, or add a bold earring for a sundown dinner.

Whether you’re hopping on a plane or staying close to home, I hope these looks give you a little inspiration for your own summer style lineup.
