It’s the perfect time to start building a transitional wardrobe that works for both summer and fall, and Amazon’s trending fashion section is an unexpectedly great place to start.

Anrabess 2-piece Lounge Set

The soft, stretchy fabric on this two-piece lounge set makes it ideal for long flights, pesky layovers, or spontaneous snack runs. Bonus: You can mix and match the top and bottom with other travel staples—and right now, it breaks down to just $9 apiece.

Keasmto Leopard Midi Skirt

Patterned midi skirts are gearing up to be fall’s biggest quiet statement, and this one brings just the right amount of bold with its leopard print. Wear it with sneakers for exploring Paris or add boots and a sweater when the temps start to dip in NYC. It works just as well in the office as it does on a museum tour. 

The Drop Listilla Espadrille Wedge Sandals

Not only are these espadrille sandals affordable, but shoppers have confirmed their comfy fit too. “These are cute and comfortable. I have walked some distance in them and no blisters,” one shared. Whether you’re strolling cobblestone streets in Lisbon or heading to a rooftop dinner at home, you can pair them with everything from linen jumpsuits to flowy dresses—and they’re half off.

Imily Bela Maxi Dress

Light, airy, and versatile enough to wear during three seasons, this maxi dress is what summer-to-fall dressing is all about. It’s perfect for sunny picnics with sandals, and it layers beautifully with a denim jacket or chunky cardigan when it gets chilly.

Amazon Essentials Thong Sandals

These under-$20 sandals take up virtually no space in your carry-on and are comfy enough to wear all day—one shopper even wore them around Mexico and said, “I was very pleased with the level of comfort and durability.” They’re the kind of staple you’ll forget you packed but end up wearing constantly, whether it’s to the pool, beach, or just running down to the lobby for a snack.

Unclecat Cropped Cardigan

My personal favorite on the list, this cropped, colorblock cardigan gives just the right pop to your outfit without being over the top. It’s an ideal throw-on for breezy nights, early flights, or anytime you want to look like a stylish version of cozy.

Tronjori High-waist Trousers

These are the ultimate wear-everywhere pants thanks to their high waist, loose fit, and effortlessly polished design. Those same details make the trousers a travel MVP—dress them up with a blouse for meetings or wear them casually with a tank and slides for sightseeing. You’ll be surprised how often you reach for them, even post-trip.

Prettygarden 2-piece Matching Set

This matching set is your go-to when you want to look cool at the airport (but feel comfy) and not like you just rolled out of bed. The fabric is soft but elevated, and the pieces are just as cute worn separately. It’s great for transitional weather when you don’t know if it’s going to be 80 degrees or 58 and raining.

Omoone Oversized Denim Jacket

The Omoone Oversized Denim Jacket is the travel layer you didn’t know you needed. It instantly makes any outfit look more put-together, and it’s roomy enough to layer over hoodies, dresses, or that slightly-wrinkled airplane outfit. Basically, don’t board a plane without it.

Winsead Clogs

These comfy, suede clogs are what happens when practicality meets trendy. The slip-resistant soles and cloud-like comfort make them ideal for walking around cities, lounging at hotels, or even running errands back home. They’ll look just as good with jean shorts as they will with trousers and a blazer come fall.

Qinsen Cargo Sweatpants

Cargo pants will be everywhere this fall and this sweatpant version nails the trend without sacrificing comfort. The pockets are deep enough to actually carry your phone, wallet, and boarding pass, and the silhouette makes them look stylish, not sloppy. You’ll want to wear them on every travel day.

Amy Babe Maxi Skirt

The great thing about maxi skirts is that they do it all. This one is light enough to pair with a tank and sandals for sweltering summer days, and it transitions easily into chillier weather with sneakers and a cropped sweater. It’s the kind of skirt you end up living in for weeks. 

Btfbm Ruched Mini Dress

This mini dress is a closet chameleon because you can wear it as a breezy cover-up at the beach, wear it with loafers for the office, or throw it on with a jacket and sneakers for weekend exploring. It’s a no-brainer to pack no matter where you’re headed.

The Drop Addison Top-handle Bag

Compact, structured, and surprisingly roomy, this dumpling-style top-handle bag is one of those under-the-radar Amazon finds. The magnetic closure and inner zip pocket keep your travel must-haves secure, while the neutral colors match with pretty much everything in your suitcase.
