How the superbly soulful (and super-sexy) lead singer of Grace Potter and the Nocturnals stays bluesy-chic and performance-ready while on tour.

Everybody needs at least one great all-purpose pair. We shopped for every body type so you get the maximum flattering fit.

With warm weather (hopefully) comes an exotic escape. Pack your bags with sweet sundresses, earthy accessories and, of course, a killer swimsuit that's as flattering as it is eye-catching.

Singer Alejandra Deheza and multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Curtis, the duo behind dreampop band School of Seven Bells, first met when their previous bands both scored opening slots for Interpol in 2004. Now, with two albums under their belt, including the recent Disconnect from Desire, and a devoted following, they're hitting the road yet again—performing this month in Dallas and at Bonnaroo in June. We checked in with the pixie-like lyrical genius—whose style is as ethereal and cool as her voice—to see what she's packing. From beautifully odd necklaces shaped like ribcages to the latest downtown-tinged threads from Seneca Rising, her suitcase is full of offbeat gems. Watch the group’s video for, "I L U" here, and click through to check out Deheza's travel-musts.

When French electropop artist Julie Budet of Yelle hits the road, she does not pack light. From glittery dresses fit only for a performer to her much-loved Levi's cutoffs, she’s got a whimsical style solution for wherever her itinerary takes her.
