Got holiday travel plans? Then you might want to check out the new pieces in the Passport Panties Collection. The Passport Cami (left) and the Passport Nightie (right) come in a faux croc passport holder designed to fit easily into a carry-on or handbag, saving the day (somewhat, anyway) in case of a lost luggage debacle. The sets come in a multitude of colors and cutely named sizes—Jump Seat (extra small), Window (small), Middle (medium), and Aisle (large). Buy online or at Neiman Marcus.
