Has winter weather got you down? Time to plan a getaway to somewhere warm! Often more difficult than selecting a destination is choosing the appropriate fashions to pack your suitcase with. [Polyvore](http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/home)takes the hassle out of fashionable planning by letting you pack a virtual suitcase with the latest stylish must-haves on the market.

Fashions are grouped into different vacation types to make it easier to choose the look right for your escape, so whether you're planning an exuberant cruise on a [Chartered Yacht](http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=350762) (think bathing suit, sun hat, cover up, sunglasses and accessories) a [chic city](http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=437092) tour (skinny jeans, hot ankle boots, bangles and classy watches) or looking for the best [New Years party outfit](http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=440861), the site has it all.

No time/money to escape this winter? Planning a wardrobe just for fun can be equally entertaining! Perusing the suitcases of fellow fashionistas is also great inspiration for every day fashion choices too, so you can brush up your style savvy even if you're staying home this holiday.
