Wait, is that summer already knocking at the door? I’m not sure how it happened so fast, but the hottest season of the year is nearly here, and you’re likely beginning to start planning your summer vacations. And that means that it’s time to think about my favorite part of pre-trip planning: packing. Are you headed to Greece (along with me and everyone else)? Well, then you’re likely going to be on the hunt for easy breezy linen looks. Or perhaps you need to stock up on classic sundresses, which are hassle-free to pack and style for any occasion.
Lucky for you, I’m a travel writer who is always on the go and knows exactly what styles are trending (and where to score the biggest savings on them). To take the guesswork out of it, I searched nine of my favorite online retailers to find the best possible deals available — because everyone deserves to be stylish and comfy no matter where your summer travels take you. Right now, you can score great summer clothes must-haves for up to 70 percent off — with prices as little as $9. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get shopping!

Best Lululemon Finds
There are plenty of summer travel-friendly finds waiting for you in Lululemon’s “We Made Too Much” section. Expect comfortable options, whether you’re the active type or just here for the cute athleisure airport uniform (because, same!). I found myself drawn to anything and everything that says “lightweight” because they’ll be breathable and packable — and that’s beyond important when packing for a trip. From a high-rise tennis skirt and a pair of cropped pants to an oversized crewneck (thinking about those cold airplanes), there are tons of must-haves to add to your cart.

Best Madewell Deals
Basic, versatile, primary color classics are always a must if you’re trying to pack outfits with optimal mix-and-match potential. Madewell knows what’s up and has plenty of sale items that fit the bill. Picture this: The Harlow Wide-leg Pants and this Poplin Crop Tube Top as your standard base pieces, and you can add flair with fun shoes and accessories. I love this Denim Darted Button-up Shirt in Winnset Wash that’s just $25, marked down from $88. Hurry, these items are selling out fast.

Best Vuori Deals
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again — athleisure is where it’s at on a travel day. While I love the chic, polished idea of traveling in jeans and a pressed blazer (something about this is so dreamy to me), it’s not realistic for me. I’m on flights sometimes a dozen times a month, and in those circumstances, all I crave is comfort. That being said, you can still look put together, especially with items like the Lux Intentions Jumpsuit that’s both cute and comfortable or the Granite Pocket Leggings, with a convenient pocket that means your phone is never out of reach.
- Vuori Cove Funnel Neck Tank Fern Rib Cropped Tank, $46 (originally $58)
- Vuori Bayview Thermal Hoodie, $90 (originally $128)

Best Abercrombie + Fitch Deals
Abercrombie + Fitch is having a moment, and I’m so here for it. Truthfully, this sale section is always the most dangerous one for me. I think their summer looks are top-tier, and I’m living for this Emerson Tie-strap Maxi Dress that screams vacation vibes. The A&F Harper Tailored Premium Crepe Pant is another trendy pick, and you can easily dress it up or down. If you’re more into jumpsuits, the Emerson Linen-blend Ruched Strapless Jumpsuit is a linen masterpiece that would work for so many occasions.
