    I'm about to jet off to Los Angeles for a week of concerts, beach days, and general exploring, so I need a travel capsule wardrobe that can keep up with my agenda. But after accounting for airfare and hotel expenses, my budget doesn't have much room to spare. That's why I'm shopping J.Crew's massive sale for all my vacation wardrobe needs.

    Here's what you need to know before we dive into the warm-weather goodness. From now through April 28, J.Crew is offering up to 50 percent off its summer fashion styles. From effortless linen pants to pretty dresses and plenty of chic bikinis, the sale's 12 pages have everything I need to stock my carry-on suitcase.

    For my complete J.Crew summer vacation shopping list, keep scrolling. Not only can you mix and match these pieces to create a plethora of cute summer outfits, but each one also rings in at $100 or under.
