14 fashion jet-setters share their favorite travel tips

“Ballet flats are my lifesaver for overseas flights. I wear a pair that are slightly loose—think half a size bigger—so going through security is a breeze and when your feet swell on the plane—because let’s be honest, they do—you can still walk off comfortable and chic.”

“I never pack for rain because hotels usually have umbrellas they will loan to guests or you can purchase one on site.”

“Be sure to pack shoes and accessories that can be worn with multiple outfits. I always travel with these Saint Laurent T-strap metallic leather sandals because I can wear them with my gold or silver jewelry! They also look great with my favorite Paige Skyline ankle-peg jeans in Beachwood.”

“When traveling to any sunny destination, my go-to skin care product is Dr. Ava Shamban sunscreen. It is an absolute necessity.”

“Regardless of the destination, any given suitcase of mine will be packed with at least a few pairs of J. Brand jeans, several Equipment tops, and striped essentials from Minnie Mortimer. These are the best combinations for any city—comfortable, easy to pack, and always chic.”

“I have travel sizes of almost all my favorite beauty products, including Frédéric Fekkai shampoo and conditioner, La Mer face cream, and Laura Mercier tinted lotion.”
