Packing for a trip shouldn't feel like a second job. Between deciding what to wear on the plane, what works for three different activities in one day, and what will actually survive being crammed into a carry-on, travel style can get complicated fast. That's exactly why we built The Travel Edit — a curated collection of soft, stretchy, mix-and-match pieces designed to take you from the airport to the hotel to dinner without a wardrobe change in sight.
In this guide, we're walking through every piece in the collection, the colors and variants available, and how to build a few complete travel outfits without overpacking.
Why We Built a Dedicated Travel Collection
Great travel clothing has to do a few things at once: it needs to be comfortable enough for a long flight, wrinkle-resistant enough to go straight from your suitcase to your body, and versatile enough to be re-worn in different combinations so you're not packing a separate outfit for every single day. The Travel Edit was designed around those exact priorities — soft knit fabrics with stretch, relaxed silhouettes that flatter without clinging, and a color palette that mixes and matches effortlessly.
The Butter Soft Collection: Matching Sets Made for Movement
At the heart of The Travel Edit is our Butter Soft collection — a trio of pieces made from an ultra-smooth, buttery knit fabric with serious stretch. All three pieces are available in the same five colorways, so you can mix and match a coordinated set or wear them completely separately.
Butter Soft V-Neck Top ($42)
A relaxed, flattering top with a modern split V-neckline, ribbed detailing, and an adjustable drawstring. It's designed to be worn tucked, untucked, tied at the waist, or layered under the Quarter-Zip. Available in Brown, Slate Blue, Maroon, Black, and Pink.
Butter Soft Pants ($49)
Soft, high-stretch pants with a relaxed leg and comfortable waistband — the kind of pants you can wear on a six-hour flight and still feel human at the other end. Available in the same five colorways as the V-Neck Top: Brown, Slate Blue, Maroon, Black, and Pink.
Butter Soft Quarter-Zip Top ($72)
A trendy quarter-zip pullover with drop shoulders and an oversized, cozy silhouette — perfect for layering over the V-Neck Top on chilly flights or cool evenings. Also available in Brown, Slate Blue, Maroon, Black, and Pink, so it pairs seamlessly with the rest of the set.
Styling tip: Because all three Butter Soft pieces share the same five colorways, this is the easiest "matching set" formula in the whole collection. Pick one color and build a full head-to-toe look, or mix two colors (say, Brown pants with a Black V-Neck Top) for a more layered, put-together feel.
The Earhart Set: Textured Knit for Warmer Days
If your trip calls for something lighter, The Earhart Set offers the same easy, travel-friendly philosophy in a textured knit fabric that's perfect for warmer climates.
The Earhart Top ($28)
A relaxed tank with a clean crew neckline, made from a soft, lightweight textured knit. It's designed to pair with the matching Earhart Pants or your favorite denim for an easy, breathable look. Available in Black, Red, Leopard, Fuchsia, Chocolate, and Blue — giving you plenty of color and print options to mix into a warm-weather travel wardrobe.
The Earhart Pants ($41)
Wide-leg textured knit lounge pants designed for all-day comfort, available in Red, Leopard, Fuchsia, Chocolate, and Blue. Pair with the matching Earhart Top for a coordinated set, or dress them up with a simple blouse for a more polished travel-day look.
Styling tip: The Leopard colorway is a great "wildcard" piece — pair it with solid neutrals like the Earhart Top in Black or Chocolate to let the print stand out without overwhelming your outfit.
The Crosby Bag: Function Meets Fashion
No travel wardrobe is complete without a bag that works as hard as you do. The Crosby Bag ($32) is a crossbody design built specifically with travel days in mind:
- Adjustable, removable shoulder strap
- Tri-zipper pocket for easy organization
- Built-in credit card holder
- Discreet water bottle pouch
- Key leash to keep your essentials secure
- Gold hardware and a sleek, structured silhouette
- Dimensions: 9"W x 7"H x 4"D
Available in Black and Ivory, the Crosby Bag is designed to hold your phone, passport, cards, and a water bottle without needing to dig around — ideal for navigating airports, train stations, or a full day of sightseeing hands-free.
Building a 5-Day Travel Capsule from The Travel Edit
Here's how to build an entire trip's worth of outfits using just a handful of pieces from this collection:
- Butter Soft Pants (1 neutral color, like Black or Brown) — your travel-day base layer.
- Butter Soft V-Neck Top (1-2 colors) — worn alone, tucked into the pants, or layered under the Quarter-Zip.
- Butter Soft Quarter-Zip Top — for flights, air-conditioned restaurants, or cooler evenings.
- Earhart Top + Pants set (1 color or print) — your warm-weather, lounge-friendly option for beach days or poolside relaxing.
- The Crosby Bag — your one bag for the entire trip, holding your essentials so you're not swapping purses at each destination.
With just these five pieces (in a few color combinations), you can build 5+ unique outfits without checking a bag.
Fabric & Care Across the Collection
Because different pieces use different fabrics, here's a quick care reference so everything stays in great shape after your trip:
- Butter Soft pieces (V-Neck Top, Pants, Quarter-Zip): 55% Rayon, 40% Polyester, 5% Spandex. Hand wash in cold water, do not bleach, hang or line dry.
- Earhart pieces (Top and Pants): 96% Polyester, 4% Spandex. Hand wash in cold water, do not bleach, hang or line dry.
- The Crosby Bag: 100% PU leather body with 100% polyester lining. Machine wash cold, do not bleach, tumble dry low.
All Butter Soft and Earhart pieces are designed with a relaxed, high-stretch fit and unlined construction, so they pack down small and bounce back after being folded into a suitcase.
Sizing Notes
Both the Butter Soft and Earhart lines run true to a relaxed, flattering fit rather than a fitted silhouette. Our model measurements for reference:
- Butter Soft V-Neck Top: Model is 5'5", typically a Size 2/XS, wearing a Small.
- Butter Soft Quarter-Zip Top: Model is 5'7", typically a Size 8/M, wearing a Small.
- The Earhart Top: Model is 5'5", typically a Size 4/M, wearing a Small.
Because these pieces are designed with a relaxed fit and high stretch, most shoppers find their usual size works well — but if you prefer a more fitted silhouette, sizing down is an option given the stretch built into the fabric.
Why These Pieces Work So Well Together
The real magic of The Travel Edit isn't any single piece — it's how intentionally they were designed to work together. The five-color palette shared across the Butter Soft line means you're never stuck with an odd one out, and the Earhart line's mix of solids and the Leopard print gives you room to add personality without needing to pack anything extra. Add in the Crosby Bag's thoughtful, travel-specific organization, and you've got a small, cohesive capsule that covers flights, sightseeing, dinners, and downtime.
Final Thoughts
Travel shouldn't mean choosing between comfort and looking put-together — The Travel Edit was built so you don't have to. Whether you're building a full color-coordinated Butter Soft set, mixing in the breathable Earhart pieces for warmer stops on your itinerary, or just need one reliable bag that keeps your essentials organized, this collection has you covered from takeoff to touchdown.
