A Classic Travel Wardrobe + A $100 Chico’s Gift Card Giveaway {Instagram} #DestinationFabulous

It’s the time of year that minds turn to travel to exotic faraway destinations, and of course we want to have a wonderful time on our adventures. We also want to look great, and relax, and having a fabulous looking wardrobe that is versatile and easy to pack and travel with goes a long way to making our holidays awesome.

Chicos offers some great travel pieces for women, including the pieces I picked up and love for their classic style and travel appeal…they are perfect for a Eastern Caribbean cruise, walking down the stone streets of Positano, or shopping in the Grand Bazaar of Instanbul. I love the Platinum Denim Sea Blue Skimmers and Effortless Cotton Layne Top (it doesn’t require ironing, great packing item!)…these are beautiful for our trip on a cruise, to walk along the deck on sunny days, and I especially love the no iron collection!

I also love the assortment of bags offered on Chico’s, like this gilded wonder that expands from a perfectly flat bag with three inner compartments, to a huge, 5 inch wide tote. The Cork Tote is perfect for days we go on long excursions and need to stock up on supplies for the day, or want to bring a bunch of souvenirs back to the boat.
