It’s not just what you pack, but how you plan to carry all of your essentials on your trip that’s of major importance too. The last thing you want is your one-of-a-kind bottle of wine you toted all the way back from Napa to break. Plus you want something that’s lightweight, but spacious and still looks good too! Depending on the length and purpose of your trip, you may want a couple options, so we’ve found some stylish suitcases you’ll want to start using ASAP!
A Louis Vuitton piece of luggage is most definitely a splurge, however it’s the type of bag you’ll have for years to come. This gorgeous rolling suitcase is perfect for an overnight business trip to New York or off to your boyfriend’s parents for the weekend. It comes in three colours, but we’re partial to the grey.
If you’re looking for quality luggage that won’t break the bank, consider Tumi. This particular version rolls (a 360 degree swivel we might add!) is expandable and is sized for carry-on. Since it’s in your basic black shade — meaning it’s impossible to identify on the carousel — Tumi has created “Accent Your Alpha” allowing you to personalize your piece with one of their coloured tags (our choice is Magenta). Cute and practical.
Designed by Globe-Trotter, who has been making luggage for more than 100 years, recently collaborated with J.Crew with a collection we think is very vintage cool. This bright canary colour won’t get lost in the sea of suitcases and despite looking heavy, is actually quite lightweight thanks to being made with Vulcan Fibre. And it rolls too, so no worrying about how you’re going to lug it around.
Weekend bag with a little flair? How about this pink leopard print from Mulberry? It folds up, meaning it’s perfect to tote along if you think your suitcase might get a little full post-vacay.
Affordable and stylish, we’d be happy to pack up for a week-long vacay with this suitcase from Atlantis. Our favourite features? The wheels spin in more than one direction, has a lot of pockets on the outside (you can stuff that last magazine in!) and is expandable.
