Letter from the Team: One of my favorite things about going on vacation is that it disrupts my routine and stifles my drive toward efficiency. In my regular life, each day is like a puzzle where each piece is a checkbox on my to-do list, and it only works if it’s assembled in a very specific way. Going on vacation—at least the type of vacation I like to take—flips that script: Instead of trying to do a thousand things in a day, I spend hours luxuriating in simple tasks. Rather than answering emails while I down my morning coffee, I drink slowly to make it last longer. In place of a quick run in between meetings, I take long, meandering walks. Of course, it’s always good to strive for a bit more balance, so this summer, I’m attempting to find something of an equilibrium. The goal is to have more of those vacation-esque moments of stillness in my daily life—moments of relaxation, free from the pressure to be “accomplishing” something.

To make this happen, I’m searching for areas where I could be expending less effort. For example, maybe packing for a trip doesn’t have to take hours. I know I’ll be using this packing list from style blogger Jasmine Ricks for my next work trip. She managed to create eight outfits (including options for social events, business-formal meetings, and days off), all of which are comfortable, chic, and compact enough to fit in a carry-on.

Or maybe I’ll just focus on making the pieces in my wardrobe work harder to eliminate the need for a mental shift every time the seasons change. I’ve always thought of my jardigan knits—those styles that combine the structure and polish of a jacket with the stretch of a cardigan—as cool-weather pieces. But after seeing this new summer-knitwear styling guide, I’m convinced that jardigans can make my life easier all year round.
