Gerber herself chose a cerulean blue button-down polo cardigan paired with loose black pants with an elasticated waist for extra comfort. Her accessories included timeless black ballerina flats, once again one of the star shoe trends, and rounded square black sunglasses.

While that covered all the bases, Gerber also wore two bags to complete her look: a large Celine monogram travel duffle and a black leather tote. Looking at her outfit formula, it's clear that Kaia Gerber has found the perfect look for stylish and comfy travel, and we can't wait to recreate it as summer vacations approach.
