Sorry, but filling your entire suitcase with shoes, while tempting, just isn’t practical. You need to be smart in making footwear choices, and a comfy, yet stylish, embellished flat will put you at the head of the packing class. Wear this style to coffee, to the pool, while shopping and out to dinner. Comfort that looks great? Sounds like a vacationer’s dream.

There's no question: Needing to pull out an iron and ironing board while you’re on vacation is just wrong. But, sadly, so are wrinkles. The solution? Pack fabrics that are meant to look wrinkled. This sheer wrinkled voile will keep you cool and looks fab just out of the suitcase.

You’re wise to bring a sun-shielding hat with you, well, pretty much anywhere, but especially when you’ll be spending loads of time lounging outside. This woven straw style is made to be folded and packed without losing its shape.

No summer packing checklist is complete without a sarong. Need to run down the hall for ice? Throw it on. At the pool? So much chicer than a towel. Lunch on the boardwalk? Wear it as a skirt. Plus, this pretty paisley number comes with a bonus: It arrives in a matching beach tote.

Airplanes can be chilly, and you never know when a little wind or cool evening will have you reaching for a cardigan once you're back on the ground. This style is the perfect lightweight layering piece and the jersey knit is not only cling-free, but wrinkle-free, too.

Here’s a travel fashion tip: Keep your clothing neutral (so you can mix and match with ease) and just add a powerful accessory to take your outfit from day to evening. This bright pink statement necklace adds instant pop to a simple white tank.

A good camisole can be a girl’s best friend, especially when she’s on vacation. Wear it alone with shorts or a skirt, layer it under a T-shirt or dress, pair it with a cardi or top your swimsuit with it. In fact, at this price you’ll want to buy several. Just roll 'em up and tuck 'em in your bag. So simple, so chic!
