The difficult part? Narrowing down which items make it into my checkout shopping cart. 

I rounded up the top finds buried within the section, and since I’m never one to gatekeep, I’m sharing my findings, which include buttery-soft leggings, classic T-shirts, and elevated trousers. Plus, I’m also taking advantage of the accessory selection and stocking up on no-show socks and a versatile tote bag. Keep reading for all my fall travel fashion must-haves, starting at $29.

Softstreme High-rise Straight-leg Cropped Pant

As a petite shopper, I always appreciate a pair of pants that’s under five feet four friendly, and these Softstreme Straight-leg Pants fit the bill. Featuring a cropped, 24-inch inseam, these cozy bottoms balance comfortably with style. One shopper wrote, “I’m not usually someone who wears (even stylish) sweats out in public, but these changed my mind,” highlighting how they’re “great for long flights or lounging with friends.” The black shade is $59, but hurry because these are certainly a sell-out risk.

Align High-rise Pants

Lululemon’s Align pants are a beloved style from the brand, and right now you can shop the popular bottoms for $89. The buttery-soft, lightweight leggings are made with the brand’s signature Nulu fabric and feature deep side pockets to hold your cell phone, wallet, or any other small essentials. They’re currently available in 13 different colors, so there is truly an option for every travel wardrobe. 

Blissfeel 2 Running Shoe

I feel like I’m late to the game, but it wasn’t until recently that I discovered Lululemon has a line of sneakers, including the Blissfil 2 running shoes. With over 1,700 five-star reviews, they’re clearly a favorite amongst shoppers. In fact, the brand boasts that they’ll issue a full refund on the sneakers if you’re not happy with them after 30 days, so there’s no reason not to give them a try—and the $79 price tag doesn’t hurt either. 

Dance Studio Mid-rise Pants

You don’t need to be a professional ballerina to enjoy Lululemon’s shopper-loved Dance Studio pants. These relaxed-fitting, lightweight bottoms feature customizable details, including an adjustable waistband and the option to cinch them around the ankles. One reviewer wrote that they wear them for “flying or long trips in the car” since they “don’t wrinkle.”

Relaxed-fit Boatneck T-shirt

I firmly believe you can never have enough white T-shirts, and this lightweight option is an athletic take on the staple piece. It features a flattering boatneck cut, stylish dropped shoulders, and a long length that falls right below the bum. Plus, for $29, it’s a find too good to pass up.

Daily Stride Comfort No-show Socks

There is nothing that bugs me more than no-show socks that curl up underneath your foot minutes into wearing them. Luckily, that’s not the case with the Daily Stride socks, which have an interior grip that prevents them from slipping. One shopper confirmed this, writing, “These are the only socks I brought for my two-week tour of France,” continuing, “they fit perfectly and stay in place, and cause no discomfort whatsoever.”

Scuba Cinch-waist Mini Dress

If you prefer travel dresses to constricting pants, you’ll want to add this comfy frock to your shopping cart ASAP. It’s made with ultra-soft, fleecy Scuba fabric that is perfect for cozying up during a long-haul flight, but the fashion-forward design can be worn straight from the airplane to lunch or sightseeing. 

Align Ruched Petal-hem Tights

These Align leggings put a playful spin on the classic style with subtle ruching and petal-shaped hems. The soft, sweat-wicking bottoms also feature a high waistband for smoothing and tummy control, as well as a hidden pocket to hold a card, cash, or a key. Plus, the $59 desert green shade is the perfect pop of color for fall.

Stretch Spacer High-rise Pants

Pivoting away from lounge and activewear, these polished trousers from Lululemon will elevate any travel look—and they’re also extremely comfortable. The slightly cropped pants feature a subtle kick flare at the bottom and are designed to sit under the calf, or fall around the ankle for petite shoppers. The pintuck detailing adds a chic touch to the bottoms, and the smoothing, stretchy waistband makes for a flattering fit.

Quilted Grid Small Tote Bag

Whether you’re running through the airport or navigating a new city, having your hands free is always a plus when traveling, which is where this crossbody tote bag comes in handy. The puffy, quilted exterior will be the perfect complement to your fall and winter travel wardrobe, and its interior has room for all your everyday essentials, kept safe with a zip-top closure.   

iCotton Jersey Stitch-detail T-shirt

Even at $49, this is admittedly a bit of a splurge for a T-shirt, but the cotton jersey top is a staple piece you’ll have in your closet for years to come. Made with a silky-soft, stretchy material, this tee is designed with understated blanket stitching along the shoulders, adding an elevated touch to the classic style.  

iAll Yours Hoodie

I always travel with a classic hoodie, whether I get chilly on the plane or want to throw it on before grabbing coffee in the hotel lobby. This black pullover sweatshirt is made with a breathable French terry material that feels incredibly soft against the skin. Plus, it has a non-constricting, relaxed fit, making for a laid-back, cozy loungewear piece you’ll reach for again and again. 

iPack Lite Anorak

This packable pullover anorak is designed specifically for travel, thanks to its lightweight material that can be rolled up into its hand pocket for an easy-carry pouch that fits into a hiking backpack or tote bag. The adventure-ready top layer is water-resistant, windproof, and has UPF 40+ sun protection, making it the perfect companion for any fall exploring you have on the docket.
