Our Guide to Labor Day Packing, No Matter What You Have Planned

What to bring when you're visiting a new city obviously depends on the local weather. But, assuming that your destination will be fairly warm, there are a few staples you should pack. Basic jeans that you can wear during the day with a casual look or to dinner with some dressier accessories are a must. Try the Banana Republic Ultra High-Rise Slim Jeans ($109). A pair of sneakers, such as the Allbirds Wool Runners ($95), is also a smart call, since you will likely be spending a lot of time on your feet exploring. For tops, pack a combination of laid-back tees and chic blouses. The Marine Layer Lexi Rib Twist Front Top ($48) is a good example because the ruched front elevates it beyond a plain T-shirt.
