All you have to do is score some plane tix, or capture a friend going on vacay to these popular getaway spots:

Leather gladiators with ankle-twirling straps is a perfect way to pull off laid-back chic on dry urban sidewalks. Pair with a flowing ankle-sweeping white dress and you're set to go. As close as it gets in NYC, handcrafted leather sandals that gets better with age from Jutta Neumann.MEXICO
I always fall in love at Matthew Williamson shows. In winter, he knits nostalgic prints with exquisite intricacy and in summer, his embroidered pieces match those of the lovingly spun tunics handcrafted by a mother for a child. This piece is no exception. Covered by almost all fashion magazine spring previews, I am half jealous that half the world knows about it already but the only way to match such beauty is to get the authentic.HOLLAND
Known for its stretching painter's palatte fields and overflowing fresh flower markets, beautiful bouquets at windows keep curtains wide open late into the evening. Let flowers bloom in your hair this spring with Louis Vuitton style ornate headbands...of course, tone it down a bit (always a rule from going from Runway to the Streets). Even more Dutch? - just use a pastel, fully blossoming flower and stick it in your loose pony. Be sure to keep loose tendrils framing your face to stay consistent with the "romantic" theme.LONDON
ok, perhaps not so classic but they are both genuine groundbreaking brits and when you combine them, it's just mean that it's not available in the US. TOPSHOP + Kate Moss. I cringe with envy for those who have access to that store!xox
