A typical Sunday evening in my house looks something like this: My husband and I snuggled on the couch pretending we're on vacation at a gorgeous resort… AKA watching the HBO original series The White Lotus. Like millions of others, we're captivated by the plot (justice for Tanya!), but as a fashion editor, my focus is split. The writing is amazing. But the style? That's where I'm fully locked in. The wardrobe embodies the kind of effortless aesthetic I aspire for in my own travels: relaxed yet incredibly chic.
So when I got my hands on The White Lotus x Banana Republic's limited-edition collection, it felt like a sign to start a packing list for my next great escape. With prints inspired by Thailand's gorgeous landscapes and Banana Republic's vintage archives, this capsule collection seamlessly blends the brand's travel heritage with the show's lush, cinematic world. Plus, the pieces are cute, packable, and easy to wear. I took them for a test run, and it's official: Whether I'm jetting off on a beautiful getaway or just running around the city this spring, I'll wear these pieces nonstop.

If there's one thing to know about my approach to vacation style, it's that I'm always reaching for a matching set. It takes the stress out of outfit planning, and I'll take all the extra minutes of relaxation I can get, especially on vacation. And the brown zebra-print set feels equally on-trend and resort-appropriate.
I can see myself wearing this lightweight set after a long beach day, my hair slicked back from the ocean and my sunglasses on as I bike to the best açai bowl in town. It's exactly the kind of travel-friendly, day-to-night outfit that just works.
Lately, I've been gravitating toward more color in my wardrobe, and this The White Lotus bandana was the perfect gateway piece. It's one of those travel essentials that can be worn in endless ways—tied around your bag (à la every cool girl right now), as a headscarf, or in my case, as a makeshift top. I even leaned into my new love for bold hues and finished the outfit with green sandals, proving that I can, to everyone's disbelief, fully embrace color. Paired with Banana Republic's airy linen pants, this look is perfect for an evening out.
When I'm traveling, comfort is key, but I'll always show up looking stylish. Enter these twill fisherman pants. I originally saw these styled for a Who What Wear shoot with a star from The White Lotus, and I was instantly obsessed. Designed with warm climates in mind, they're lightweight and breezy, and feature a game-changing adjustable tie that lets you tighten or loosen them as the day goes on. These pants are perfect for all my travel adventures, whether I'm heading to a museum or wandering through local markets. I paired them with a sleek black tube top, but they work with just about anything—a white tee for daytime or a cropped sweater for chillier nights. Throw on these pants, pack your book or journal in the oversize tote below, and head straight to the beach.
