Holiday travel demands an outfit that can handle long hours in transit without looking like you dressed for the couch. Whether you’re catching a flight or settling in for a road trip, the goal is simple: stay comfortable, look pulled together, and arrive ready for whatever’s on the agenda. That means leaning on pieces that feel easy but still have enough polish to pass muster once you step out of the car or off the plane.

A textural pullover in a cozy bouclé material strikes the right balance, offering warmth and texture without feeling bulky. Pair it with relaxed pants that are tailored enough to look intentional but as comfortable as your favorite sweats, and finish things off with suede slip-on shoes that make getting in and out of them a breeze. Finish off the look with luxe accessories like a cashmere beanie and a leather tote bag. It makes for a low-effort formula that travels well and looks good while doing it.
