Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Philadelphia Style's Kristin Detterline spends most of her time sharing info about the Philly shops she thinks you will like, but the editor-in-chief can't help but be partial to a few personal favorites. This fashion editor has her pre-vacation shopping routine down to a science.

Here, Detterline takes a breather from working on Philadelphia Style's winter issue—hitting newsstands next month—to reveal the seven shops she always hits up before taking off on her next jet-setting adventure.

ULTAĀ Beauty

I wear perfume every single day so I like to stop at Ulta and grab a few small, travel-ready rollerball fragrances—also great to throw in your handbag when you aren't traveling. [Image credit: Ulta Beauty/Facebook]

Cameo WaterĀ Wear

If I'm going on vacation this time of year, it is definitely somewhere warm. Cameo [open seasonally] has been around for years and always has the best selection of swimwear and cover ups. [Image credit: Cameo Water Wear/Facebook]

Besides books, magazines, and crossword puzzles, I like to bring a small journal with me for travel notes and reminders and to jot down story ideas I might think of while I'm away. [Image credit: The Papery of Philadelphia/Facebook]

Bluemercury

Bluemercury's M-61 Power Glow Peel ($28) is one of my favorite skincare treatments. The pair of individually wrapped towelettes make it easy to use AND easy to pack. [Image credit: Bluemercury]

Hats in theĀ Belfry

A wide-brim hat or straw fedora is a vacation must. In the off-season, you'll likely only find them here. [Image credit: Hats in the Belfry]

I constantly lose headphones, so I usually grab an extra pair before going away. [Image credit: Apple]

Menagerie

I recently discovered Yosi Samra flats during a trip to Menagerie. They fold up and are easy to slip on and off. Plus, Menagerie has all sorts of fun accessories and sweaters (another travel must!) [Image credit: Yosi Samra]
