5 Things We’re Packing for Vacation: Essentials from Leela + Lavender 

Vacation season is upon us, and whether you’re headed to a tropical beach, a relaxing resort, or a city getaway, packing the right wardrobe can make all the difference. At leela + lavender, we’ve curated the ultimate vacation essentials that will keep you feeling stylish and comfortable wherever your travels take you. Here’s a sneak peek at the 5 things we’re packing for our upcoming vacations:

1. Matching Athleisure Set: Comfort Meets Style

Who says you can’t look chic while staying comfortable? A matching athleisure set is our go-to for long travel days or low-key mornings. Whether you're catching an early flight or lounging by the hotel pool, athleisure sets offer the perfect mix of fashion and function. Look for breathable fabrics, like our DoubleLUXE Collection, and consider a set with fun colors to add a little extra flair to your vacation wardrobe. Pair it with a cute hat and sunglasses, and you’re ready for anything!

2. Lightweight, Flowy Bottoms: Breeze Through the Heat

When the sun is shining, and the weather’s warm, lightweight, flowy bottoms are a must-have. These breezy pants or skirts are perfect for hot climates, offering both style and comfort. Opt for materials like linen or soft cotton that allow your skin to breathe while keeping you looking effortlessly chic. Whether you're strolling through a coastal town or enjoying a sunset cocktail on the beach, these bottoms are versatile and perfect for all your vacation activities.

3. Easy Dress: One-and-Done Outfit

Packing light? An easy dress is a no-brainer. This vacation staple can take you from beach days to dinner nights without missing a beat. Look for flowy, sleeveless designs or a flattering wrap dress to keep things comfortable while still looking put-together. Bonus points if the dress is wrinkle-resistant—because who wants to spend time ironing while on vacation? A quick swap of accessories, like a fun bag or colorful shoe, can change the vibe from casual to dressy in seconds!

4. Slip-On Sandals: Style and Convenience

For days filled with sightseeing or beach lounging, slip-on sandals are a must-have. They're easy to throw on and off, making them perfect for spontaneous adventures. Whether you go for classic slides, trendy espadrilles, or boho-inspired sandals, these shoes provide comfort and style without the hassle of buckles or laces. Pair them with your favorite dress, athleisure set, or flowy bottoms for a look that says "vacation chic."

5. Stripe Tops: Nautical and Nice

Nothing says "vacation" quite like a stripe top! Whether you're exploring coastal towns or just soaking up the sun by the pool, stripes are a timeless and versatile pattern that adds a fun, nautical vibe to any outfit. Choose a loose, breathable top in classic navy and white or experiment with bold, multicolor stripes for a more playful look. Pair with denim shorts, your lightweight pants, or a cute skirt, and you’ve got the perfect vacation look ready to go.
