What to Bring on Vacation: Outfit Ideas for Traveling

Planning a shopping-focused trip to New York, London, or Paris (lucky you!)? Let's look to veteran shopper Rachel Bilson, who clearly knows that separates are the wardrobe secret for optimum retail success. Why?

Start with a printed, flared skirt—go nonfloral for extra kick—then layer a summer sweater over a tank (it gets breezy in the shops). Opt for chic slip-on flats for comfort and hassle-free shoe-try-ons, and pack light with a small, sleek cross-body bag. You'll need your hands free to carry all those shopping bags.
