While the holidays are fun, travel and family drama can also make them stressful. Consider these style must-haves your saving grace for the holiday and beyond.
You spilled on your favorite outfit
Enter Soak, convenient, travel-size minis and no-leak bottles that keep delicates clean. A favorite of Keisha Whitaker (wife of actor Forest Whitaker and owner of beauty line Kissable Couture), the no-rinse, hand-wash solution can be used on all fabrics. Bonus: this eco-friendly product is biodegradable, with recyclable bottles and water-based ink used on the packaging. Click here for a list of local stores that carry Soak or order online.

Long plane, train or automobile trips
Travel in style and comfort with Brulee Lounge & Lingerie. New this fall, the line, designed by bi-coastal designer Kristian Giambi, consists of pieces handcrafted with silk, cotton and jersey materials and gold and crystal hardware accents. The pieces – luxurious camisoles, bodysuits, rompers, lounge pants, leggings, nightshirts and more in black, ivory and deep plums – can be mixed and matched. Bonus: they don’t take up much space in your bag, so you can travel lightly – or pack more clothing options! Pair the Jersey Tank and Legging with a boyfriend cardigan to arrive in style. Pieces in this affordable line range from $36 to $178 and can be purchased online.
