Packing light can be tricky any time of year, but once the temperatures begin to dip, the struggle to fit everything into a carry-on bag becomes even more difficult. As someone who flies multiple times a year and refuses to pay for a checked bag, I’ve cracked the code for squeezing as many looks as I can into just a carry-on. My secret? Only sticking to one or two—sometimes, three—bottoms that can go with anything. This way, I have plenty of room for a variety of blouses and shirts, so it looks like I packed more outfits than I actually did

Of course, this means that I’m always on the hunt for more lightweight, comfortable travel tops to add to my rotation that won’t break the bank—and this season, I’m setting my sights on Amazon’s new fall offerings. The retailer recently rolled back prices on a wide array of cute fall tops, marking most of them below $35. Keep scrolling for my favorites across the site, including elevated, long-sleeved polos, crisp, white button-downs, and cozy, knit pullovers, starting at just $10.
