We all know that most modes of long-distance travel — whether by plane, train, or automobile — aren’t great for the environment. But there are also small, manageable ways to help combat our carbon footprint without feeling totally guilty if we wanna book a vacay — and that’s where sustainable travel brand Paravel comes in.
Considering how much waste can come out of the travel industry (and out of producing travel bags in general), Paravel is a revelation. The eco-conscious brand started with a collection of high-quality suitcases made from recycled plastics and other materials. It then branched out into softer bags like weekenders, duffles, and totes, and several interior organizers. And, now, Paravel is introducing its newest release. The Small Cabana Tote is an adorable, handbag-sized version of the brand’s best-selling Cabana Tote. (It should be known that the original Cabana Tote is a bonafide internet-famous travel bag: over 10,000 have been sold to date; it’s had 2,500 folks on the waitlist; it sold out a whopping seven times. Customers have currently ranked it a solid five out of five stars.)
While the original tote is ideal for overnight getaways, this mini is perfectly suited for daily use or as a commuter work bag. On the sustainability-pushing front, it also happens to be the brand’s first-ever 100% Global Recycled Standard certified vegan leather bag.
Just like its larger-sized counterpart, the Small Cabana Tote is made from a lightweight and spill-proof canvas derived from 30 upcycled plastic water bottles. (Wine and coffee can leave their stains elsewhere.) There are four cute colorways to choose from, and you have the option to add a monogram for a touch of personalization. Newer features that are exclusive to the Small Cabana Tote include a zip-top closure to keep all your stuff secure and an adjustable, removable shoulder strap that allows you to go hands-free as well as an all-vegan leather base and trim. Plus, we always love a charming preppy moment, especially with the striped accents.
With the world slowly opening back up, this ethically-made, under-$200 Small Cabana Tote arrives at a particularly good time ahead of holiday travels and gifting season. Or, if you’re simply in the mood to treat yourself to a new everyday handbag, this one will surely have you arriving in style wherever your destination happens to be.

As we learn more about fashion's massive environmental footprint, the conscientious consumer is looking to invest in clothes that minimize the harm done to Mama Earth. From buying secondhand to reading labels to find out what materials an item is composed of, many of us are educating ourselves on alternatives to fast fashion.

(Fun fact: TENCEL™ fibers support the body’s natural thermal-regulating mechanism to keep you warm and dry in transitional weather.) Or a beach-umbrella-striped co-ord to keep the summer-holiday spirit alive well into autumn? Our edit has it all. (We should also mention here that almost everything rings in at under $150.)

UO Dale Ribbed Bodycon Polo Dress
The Polo Sweater Mini Dress
Preppy is (still) alive and well! This polo sweater dress is a solid transition piece if you're easing from summertime seaside vacationing to back-to-school crunchy fall foliage. If baby blue isn't your hue, this dress also comes in a deep raspberry red.
The Hype: 4.7 out of 5 stars and 6 reviews on urbanoutfitters.com
What They're Saying: "I love this dress and will be wearing it for the foreseeable future. It is so soft and so flattering and could be worn to do basically anything. The fabric is really stretchy; you could even go a size down but I love the fit as is in my regular M size. I got the brown — regretting not getting the blue too!"
UO Dale Ribbed Bodycon Polo Dress, $, available at Urban Outfitters
Form-fitting but generously stretchy, this ribbed sweater dress is effortless enough for everyday casual wear and for easy dress-up with the right shoes and accessories. You can also score it in creamy white or classic black.
The Hype: 4.6 out of 5 stars and 13 reviews on abercrombie.com
What They're Saying: "This dress is AMAZING! I tried it on when it arrived, even though I was very bloated (thank you, IBS). Even on one of my bad bloating days, this dress is very flattering and forgiving! I followed the advice of other reviewers and sized down one size and it fits perfectly. For reference, I am 5’6”, 145 lbs, and curvy in the hips/butt. Love this dress!"
Abercrombie and Fitch V-Neck Slip Midi Sweater Dress, $, available at Abercrombie and Fitch— PAID —
Try a relaxed-but-still-slinky silhouette with this rib-knit number.
If you're looking for a sweater dress with a unique design, this affordable fave from Nordstrom Rack is the frock to cop. Not into the print? You can get this in plain black or a subtler black-on-maroon colorway.
The Hype: 4.5 out of 5 stars and 404 reviews on nordstromrack.com
What They're Saying: "Purchased an XL in the navy and was surprised how flattering it was on my curvy figure. Sweater dresses aren't usually the most forgiving but the waist on the dress comes above my natural waistline so it does a great job concealing my midsection. The fabric has a nice weight to it without being bulky or clingy. Love the flared, twirly skirt too."
Nina Leonard Geometric Print Sweater Dress, $, available at Nordstrom Rack
As with all of Quince's cozy offerings, this turtleneck sweater dress is made from ethically sourced, Grade A cashmere from Mongolia. It's available in four neutral colors if you're looking for a worthwhile capsule piece for fall.
The Hype: 4.8 out of 5 stars and 132 reviews on onequince.com
What They're Saying: "I am OBSESSED with this dress — I am already living in it. Like all of Quince's cashmere it is so soft, but it also is a great length, and so versatile."
Quince Mongolian Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater Dress, $, available at Quince
Nina Leonard V-Neck Balloon Sleeve Sweater Dress

The Hype: 4.1 out of 5 stars and 2,529 reviews on amazon.com
What They're Saying: "I am shook. I was not expecting this sweater dress to be THIS good. I was excited for this to come in the mail and I imagined it would be cute but guuuuurl this hits every check mark. I took a gamble buying this because there weren't very many reviews and me being a plus size girl, it's hard buying clothing offline. I am 5'6" 245lbs and I bought the biggest size which is an XL. PERFECT. The color is gorgeous too."
Anrabess Women's Turtleneck Oversized Sweater Dress, $, available at Amazon

What They're Saying: "I love this! I've been looking for the perfect button-down sweater dress for a while now and this one is just right. Super soft, cozy, and not too heavy. Pair it with a jean jacket and booties and you're good to go!"
Old Navy Rib-Knit Cardigan Sweater Midi Dress, $, available at Old Navy
Superdown Aliza Sweater Dress
The Hint-Of-Disco Sweater Dress

The Hype: 4.4 out of 5 stars and 38 reviews on revolve.com
What They're Saying: "Cute, sexy, comfy. I'm a curvy size 10/M/L. Ordered this in the M and it fits perfectly. Was worried the glitter might make it scratchy, but it wasn't at all. Quality was as expected for this price point."
Superdown Aliza Sweater Dress, $, available at Revolve
Eliza J. Fit & Flare Sweater Dress
The Back-To-Office Sweater Dress
Sometimes, you just need a modest, non-frumpy sweater dress that's chicly polished for a professional setting. This one fits the bill, and in a rich, beautiful teal color.
The Hype: 4.2 out of 5 stars and 83 reviews on nordstrom.com
What They're Saying: "Beautiful dress! The color is gorgeous, the knit fabric is gratifyingly heavy (not see-thru or flimsy), and the fit was true to size. So happy with this purchase. Can be worn for work, dinner out or events. I like the self fabric belt for a monotone look, but also plan on wearing a leopard belt with it! I'm 5'5", 125 lbs, 36DD and the medium was perfect for me. Great quality for a very reasonable price."

The Hype: 4.7 out of 5 stars and 27 reviews on nordstrom.com
What They're Saying: "I’m normally a 10-12 in dresses I ordered a 10. The dress is form-fitting but not ridiculously tight. It sits nicely on my body...I am 5’10 198lbs for reference. I’m not super curvy but the pattern enhances my shape. The material is not thin but it’s also not super thick...it’s just right. I’ll be ordering the green one as well!"
French Connection Simona Long Sleeve Rib Sweater Dress, $, available at Nordstrom
FP Beach El Topo Sweater Maxi
The Flowy Maxi Sweater Dress
Inspired by beach cover-ups, this heathered sweater dress is designed to drape loosely on the body, as though you're headed to an oceanside bonfire after sunset. You can also grab this flowy dress in red wine or black.
The Hype: 4.5 out of 5 stars and 14 reviews on freepeople.com
What They're Saying: "This arrived beyond my expectations! The fabric is quite heavy, with movement and stretch — it is a shapely cut. It has some warmth but is breathable. The texture is gorgeous. Will look great with boots, sandals, or slippers! Sleeves come all the way to my wrists and the length is just above my ankles (I am 5'9"). The olive color is so rich and I'm looking forward to getting another in natural perhaps. Really gorgeous piece. Please make more colors."

The Hype: 4.2 out of 5 stars and 15,937 reviews on amazon.com
What They're Saying: "I LOVE THIS SWEATER DRESS! I read the reviews before me and they said if you want the over size look to go up a size. I am 5’4. 145 pounds. Normally wear a medium. I went up to a large for the over size look. I normally roll up the sleeve once for a cute cuffed look. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND."

This exceptionally cozy hoodie sweater dress is guaranteed to make you feel like you're wearing an all-day hug.
The Hype: 4.9 out of 5 stars and 4,502 reviews on etsy.com
What They're Saying: "Warm, soft, hoodie, AND pockets! This is so comfy. I'm 5'4" and about 125 and I got a small — it fits perfectly but any bigger would be too big. It does have room to stretch so I don't have any restricted movement. If I saw this in a store I would've only paid $80, but I'm not mad at the price I paid and there's no way in hell I'd return this. I do recommend, great buy."
