1) She looks good with wet hair

or

She looks good in wet hair

"With", because you don't "wear" hair, unless it is a wig.

2) You look good in high heels

OR

You look good with high heels

"In" is better because you do wear high heels.

"Vacation" is American English, so I was not sure about this one. I did some Google searching and this is what I found:

1. "go on vacation" had the most results. Note - no "a"
2. "go on a vacation" was next.
3. "go for a vacation" was far less frequent, but seemed to be used by Americans too.

Any American English speakers care to comment?
