When it comes to toting around your travel essentials — we’re talking laptops, passports, travel docs, credit cards, etc, — style and function are top requirements. One line we think that perfectly accomplishes this is the luxury English brand Mulberry. We love what Creative Director Emma Hill has done since taking the helm in 2008. Besides creating the iconic Alexa bag after model and girl-about-town Alexa Chung, she also designed the Daria line of bags, which is on our fall list of must-haves.
Another highlight of the Mulberry accessories collection is Mulberry for Apple, which includes clutches big enough to fit a 13″ Macbook (our ideal laptop travel size). The one which caught our eye is the Daria Sleeve in Oxblood Soft Spongy Leather (£350/$560), with the chic logo plaque and love the idea that it can double-up as a clutch come evening.
While you’re at it, pick up a passport cover too. Mulberry has eight stylish passport covers to choose from, ranging from basic black to patent plum, our personal favourite. Retailing for (£70/$112) you’ll be excited to pull out your documentation next time you’re lined up at customs — in addition to the thrill of another stamp in your book.
