There’s something to be said for unpacking totally fresh, purchased-with-special-intention pieces as soon as you arrive on vacation. A new floral dress, sleek sunglasses, or even a shiny, new carry-on suitcase can help instantly get your mind into whatever relaxation mode you prefer: sunbathing, wine tasting, capturing sunset photos for Instagram. And since arranging a getaway can be tiresome as is, it’s a smart idea to make planning what to pack simpler, faster, and easier with a one-stop shop like Amazon Fashion. Plus, you can often cover all your vacation-shopping bases even more affordably this way. Before you take off, check out the 15 stylish upgrades below, all found in one place, and many eligible for two-day Prime shipping.
