I'm a 64-Year-Old Editor—These Are the Affordable Basics I Pack for Every Trip

Welcome to the busiest time of the year, everyone. Travel season is here. Whether you're flying home for the holidays or jetting off to a distant locale, the travel essentials you pack in your suitcase (and wear en route to your destination) can make or break your entire trip. Sounds dramatic, we know, but in our experience, there's no worse feeling than opening up your suitcase once you get there to find that you packed all wrong.

To help you avoid as much stress as possible when traveling over the holidays, we tapped our resident style expert, Susan Feldman. Susan is the founder of One King's Lane and In the Groove, a style destination where Feldman shares her age-defying outfits and shopping tips. Currently, she has a handful of essentials she rarely boards a plane, train, or hops in the car without and she's sharing each of them here today. From the accessory she loves to layer with to the one bag she always uses as a carry-on, keep reading to discover and shop her favorite six travel essentials.

"Everlane makes great cashmere sweaters in lots of gorgeous colors, although when I travel I usually pick a color and go with it. Typically it will be black or navy. It just makes it all so easy."

"I always travel with a cashmere sweater and wrap. No matter if it is hot or cold I am always happy that I have them with me."

"I do tend to get dressed from the feet up so I do tend to start my packing from the shoes up. This always means at least one pair of shoes that I know will be super comfy. I find you just can’t go wrong with a great pair of sneakers. I love my Golden Goose like these."

"I never leave home without a leather jacket. It is the perfect finishing touch for any outfit, and if it gets a little chilly on the plane it's nice to have to throw on."

"I also have invested in a duffle for those longer trips because I will do anything not to check my bag. I bought this Louis Vuitton one on my first trip to Paris with my husband—I knew it was true love. I also really like this Madewell duffle as a more affordable version."

"Whether it's hot or cold, I always feel it's important to have a hat with me at all times—we must protect our skin. Now that it's winter, I've been loving this Brixton one. The taupe goes with everything, and it is not so precious so I can just throw it in my bag."

Next up, everything she's shopping at Zara right now.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
