There’s something satisfying about packing a suitcase where each piece works with everything else you brought. Instead of stuffing my carry-on with “just in case” outfits, I’ve been gravitating toward versatile staples that can handle long travel days, afternoons spent wandering a new city, and dinners outside with nothing more than a quick swap of shoes or accessories. During summer, breathable fabrics and easy silhouettes are non-negotiable—and if I can skip wrestling with a hotel iron, even better.
Quince just dropped a batch of new arrivals that I’m already adding to my cart, especially ahead of my next summer getaway. The lineup is full of lightweight cotton dresses, airy linen separates, polished basics, and comfortable bottoms that feel tailor made for warm-weather travel. These are the eight new pieces I’m happily adding to my vacation wardrobe, since they mix, match, and pack beautifully without taking up too much precious suitcase space.
Organic Cotton Poplin Zip-front Midi Dress
I loved this zip-front dress the minute I laid eyes on it—the gold hardware stands out so beautifully against the soft black cotton fabric. It looks just like a style that’s been on my Anthropologie wish list forever, but costs over $100 less. The dress has a smocked bodice, which one shopper said “cinches the waist perfectly” and creates a “flattering and forgiving” fit. Between living in South Florida, where the humidity is always around, and planning summer trips, I’m definitely grabbing this breathable staple for future vacations.
Court Sport Pleated Tennis Skirt
For morning walks to get coffee, strolls with my dog, or even light workouts on vacation, I love bottoms with built-in shorts—especially if they still feel cute enough to pop into a shop or grab lunch in. This pleated tennis skirt has comfortable shorts underneath, along with pockets so I can keep my keys and credit card handy. Quince just dropped it in a bright blue shade and a baby pink option, both of which feel destined for summer travel. One shopper said the skirt “fits beautifully,” is “super flattering,” and even “stays in place as you move,” making it an easy pick for hikes, pickleball, and more.
Stretch Cotton Jersey Sleeveless Mock-neck Top
This summer, I’ve been all about adding colors to my wardrobe that still function as neutrals, like butter yellow—and this new Petal Pink tank top is at the top of my must-buy list. It’s primarily made of cotton with a touch of spandex for stretch, and one shopper said it’s “easy to pack for travel,” since it doesn’t wrinkle and “feels good against the skin.” The mock-neck silhouette feels so sophisticated, even though it’s as effortless to wear as a tee—and the contoured, smooth fit has flattering ruching details that give your waist a “cinched” look, per reviews.
Organic Cotton Poplin Embroidered Tiered Maxi Dress
I saw a customer say they’re planning to wear this embroidered maxi dress on an upcoming trip to Nantucket—it “looks like the kind of dress you’d get at Hill House but at a fraction of the price,” the shopper wrote, adding that it’s “even more stunning in person” than it is online. Now, I’m envisioning myself wearing it on a coastal getaway, too. It’s made with a “crisp” organic cotton poplin fabric that shoppers rely on for hot summer days. The moonstone blue adorned with dainty white floral embroidery makes this dress feel like something I’d find strolling in a seaside town, and the flowy tiered skirt keeps it comfortable for long days of sightseeing.
Stretch Cotton Jersey Side-tie Midi Dress
Orange can be an intimidating color to wear, but this side-tie dress comes in a warm, easy-to-style Spiced Orange shade I’m loving for summer, and I picture myself pairing it with a denim jacket in the fall. The cotton jersey fabric drapes beautifully, and one reviewer said it’s “super flattering” and is “not too thick or thin.” Another shopper said it has the same look as the Sezane Pippa dress, but for over $100 less.
Flowknit Breeze Boxy Cropped Tee
My go-to summer top is a tee, especially when I’m traveling—they’re versatile enough to dress up or down and layer, so they always earn a spot in my carry-on. This breathable shirt is an easy choice, since it’s made with the perfect fabric for summer travel: quick-drying, moisture-wicking, anti-odor, and UV SPF40 protection. Though it’s made with a performance fabric, it has a dressy look with a boxy shape and a slightly cropped silhouette that’s easy to wear with high-waisted jeans or linen pants. And shoppers say their midriff still stays covered, with the hem landing “just above the hips.”
Organic Cotton Gauze Long Sleeve Tiered Mini Dress
Shoppers love this cotton gauze mini dress for the hotter months, since the fabric is breathable and “perfect for warm weather.” The brand’s newest drop includes a raspberry shade that’s just begging to be worn while sipping an Aperol spritz on vacation. With a button-down silhouette and billowy sleeves, the dress feels put-together with zero effort. It’s versatile and easy, and you can wear it as a beach cover-up in a pinch or dress it up with wedges for dinner—and it’s appropriate to wear to the office after vacation is over, too.
Marlow Laptop Backpack
No matter the destination, I never travel without a laptop-friendly backpack, and this one is absolutely beautiful and “fits perfectly under an airplane seat,” per shoppers. I’m eyeing the Moonstone Blue color, and am a huge fan of its luxe gold hardware. A luggage-handle sleeve on the back makes getting through the airport a breeze, and the bag has “plenty of space” for other bulky essentials like a water bottle, notebooks, and more, according to reviewers.
