Jetsetter Editors on the Travel Accessories They’re Coveting for Spring
Spring weather has us thinking about spring travel, naturally, but also about all the clothes and gadgets we plan on bringing on our getaways. Below, all the travel accessories on our seasonal wish lists, from high-waisted bikinis to noise-canceling headphones and travel-ready shoes.
High-Waisted Bikini
“I’ve been wanting a cute swimsuit for a really long time. Because I love to surf, most of my swimsuits are one-piece, but I really love this flirty, high-waisted option from Marysia. I can’t wait to wear it on my upcoming trip to Cuba!”—Xin Fang, Photo Intern
goTenna
"Call me a geek, but I could not be more excited to get my hands on this gadget. The pocket-sized goTenna is perfect for any off-the-grid trip, especially a hiking excursion like the one I’m planning in Maine this spring. Think of it as a two-way radio and antenna that uses Bluetooth-LE, so you can use your cell phone without any signal or WiFi. It’s also a GPS device that allows you to send your location and access maps apps when you’re offline. Bonus: it’s sold in a pair, meaning you can give one to your friend and stay in touch within 50 miles of each other."— Chelsea Bengier, Editorial Assistant
Jean Jacket
"In the spring and summer months, I live in jean jackets. I like layering them over spring dresses and throwing them over my shoulders on cool nights. And this one from J.Crew has a relaxed silhouette and a perfectly lived-in look.”—Clara Sedlak, Executive Editor
Straw Basket
“The item I’m most coveting for spring is this straw market basket. I have wanted one ever since I traveled to Morocco last year. I would take it with me on a long weekend getaway, use it as a carry-on or a beach tote, and pack it with flowers and produce at the local farmer’s market.”—Gretchen Moosbrugger, Photo Editor
Tie-up Sandals
"Since the Fenty x Puma Spring 2017 Ready-to-Wear Collection dropped in March, I’ve had major eyes for the pink Bow Creeper Sandals. With a chunky platform sole, wraparound ties at the ankles, and a simple knotted leather bow, the hybrid sneaker-sandals are a great option for on-the-go footwear that’s both practical and stylish.”—Chelsea Stuart, Writer

Sunhat
"I am very, very picky about my hats. It takes me forever to find one that provides enough coverage and still looks good. So I was thrilled to discover this super flattering option from Eugenia Kim. It has color blocking and fringe (what more could you possibly want?!)"— Siobhan Reid, Writer
Headphones
“I’ve been on the hunt for a great-looking pair of noise-cancelling headphones for a long time. And while this pair doesn't run cheap, they really deliver on style, quality and performance—which should come as no surprise, given they’re a collab between high-end headphone company Master & Dynamic and the iconic camera manufacturer Leica.”—Lindsey Olander, Editor
Heeled Sandals
"These are my go-to spring/summer sandals – I travel everywhere in them. They’re the perfect shoes for a night out on the town, but are also great for dressing up a casual outfit, like loose pants and a cropped tee. I usually go through two pairs a season, that’s how much I wear them!"—Lauren Dishinger, Associate Photo Editor
