Waistcoats are an unexpected spring sensation with the potential to become a summer trend. Though they're a street style staple among celebs like Kendall Jenner and Victoria Beckham, you don't have to be a member of fashion's upper echelon to wear one. Available on Amazon, this affordable vest and shorts set is worn every day, with many reviewers calling it perfect for travel.

Reviews say it's lightweight, breathable, and made from quality fabric that can withstand the rigors of travel. Another reviewer calls it “surprisingly nice.” “This is a great summer outfit and I love how it's easy to throw on and look neat,” wrote another shopper. The only downside is that reviews say the material (a blend of polyester, viscose, and elastane) wrinkles easily, so make sure your destination has an iron or steamer before packing your suitcase.
“This product is amazing and the quality is just amazing. I'm blown away,” said one shopper. The set comes in 13 colors, including brick, army green, basic black, khaki, and light blue. Sizes range from XS to XXL, though it's worth noting that some reviews say they run larger.
