Even though I tell myself I’m not going to do it prior to every trip I have on the calender, I always end up ordering things to wear. And when it comes to figuring out my outfits for an upcoming trip, I’m a major procrastinator. I start thinking about thinking about my outfits around two weeks out, but I don’t actually figure them out until approximately two days before I depart. So a lot of my orders are quite last minute, and more often than not, I end up paying for overnight shipping. (Don’t be like me.)
My point in telling you all of this is that when things are that last minute, I stick to tried-and-true brands (and retailers) that I know will fit well and be of good quality. There’s no room for error when you’re ordering something right before you have to fill your suitcase. And more often than not, it’s one of six brands that I turn to, as I know shipping will be fast and they’ll have items that fit my needs. Keep scrolling to shop some of my favorite travel-friendly pieces from each of these versatile brands, whether you’re leaving for a trip in three days or three weeks (or not taking a trip at all!).
Aritzia
Aritzia has incredible basics and the price points are great. I especially love its coats, blazers, sweats, and trousers. And most of Aritzia’s pieces ship from Canada but even the standard shipping option is priority.
