Best Travel Capsule Wardrobe Pieces Overall
Aokosor V-neck T-shirt
Amazon
This V-neck T-shirt will become a staple piece in your travel wardrobe for its versatility and comfort. The simple style makes it easy to dress up with a pair of wide-leg trousers for a night on the town, or you can wear them with stretchy joggers for a day of hiking.
Reebok Princess Sneakers
Amazon
White sneakers are a must-have if you want a shoe that can be paired with practically anything. These Reeboks have a terry lining that absorbs moisture to help keep your feet dry, and include a removable foam sock liner for lightweight support. For one Amazon shopper, the sneakers were comfortable right out of the box and they were able to walk up to 40,000 steps blister- and pain-free.
Wrangler Authentics Stretch Denim Jacket
Amazon
Wrangler’s denim jacket is the layering piece you need when you’re constantly going from the hot outdoors to highly air-conditioned spaces. One traveler wore it to the airport, on a plane, and on a bus and said it’s easily layered without looking “boxy.”
Grecerelle Short-sleeve Maxi Dress
Amazon
Made with a “soft, breathable and comfortable” material, this dress is stylish enough to go from the train to a nice restaurant. Just pair it with accessories to dress it up for dinner, or throw on your sneakers and a denim jacket (like the one above) to enjoy a casual lunch.
G4Free Wide-leg Yoga Pants
Amazon
These wide-leg yoga pants combine the structured look of trousers with the comfort of leggings, so it’s no wonder they’ve become an Amazon No. 1 best-seller. One shopper said they’re versatile enough to go from “sightseeing in sneakers to dinner with a little sandal,” and another reviewer added that they’re even “wrinkle-proof.”
Hotouch Oversized Button-down Shirt
Amazon
Whether you’re wearing jeans or a pair of structured pants, you embrace a preppy look with this oversized button-down top. One Amazon reviewer who described it as a travel essential shared that they wore it almost every day on a vacation to Italy.
Anrabess 2-piece Matching Set
Amazon
This elegant matching set can be worn straight off the plane, so you can start exploring without having to change your outfit first. It comes with a sleeveless sweater and baggy joggers. One shopper said the set felt like “cozy pajamas” while still looking “expensive,” while another traveler was able to comfortably sleep in it during a 10-hour flight.
Iwollence Wide-leg Pants
Amazon
These bottoms will keep things flowy and breezy with their wide-leg fit and breathable material. They come in 47 colors and prints, including spring pastels, like mint green and haze blue, and have a ruffle waistline that will dress up even the simplest shirt.
PrettyGarden Chunky Knit Cardigan
Amazon
Consider this chunky cardigan another spring essential. It has a trendy V-neckline so that you can wear it solo, or layer it over a T-shirt or tank top. And, when you want to go for a nightly stroll, the soft knit material will keep you warm.
Anrabess Tiered Maxi Skirt
Amazon
This maxi skirt will add a romantic vibe to your outfits with its flowy fit and tiered design. One traveler especially loved that it felt “super comfy” during a trip to Spain in the summer. It was so breathable, they thought it mimicked natural linen.
Arach & Cloz Short-sleeve Knit Top
Amazon
More than 2,000 of these tops have been purchased this month — and we can see why. The short-sleeve sweater comes in 27 colors, including neutrals like gray, camel, and off-white, as well as nine striped patterns to add some contrast to your vacation outfits.
33,000ft Packable Rain Jacket
Amazon
You can’t predict the weather, which is why a packable rain jacket is a must for traveling. This style can fold up into a compact, carry-on-friendly size that won’t add bulk to your bag like most jackets. Its longer length also provides more coverage, which is especially helpful if you’re traveling for work or a formal event.
