Sometimes the perfect meal while traveling is one that you can put together yourself.

For travelers without TSA PreCheck, wearing shoes that easily slide on and off makes navigating airport security checkpoints a tad more efficient. Let’s face it, we’ve all been the passenger with mere minutes to make it to the gate on time, and some footwear just isn’t meant for beating the clock (hiking boots, strappy sandals, most lace-ups).

Below, our curated list of vibrant and chic packing essentials for a trip to The Boca Raton. Colorful two-piece sets, embroidered linen tops, and timeless accessories are all included.
