Kate Spade Watson Lane Lyla
Sling or carry it, Kate Spade’s Lane Lyla weekender bag is as sturdy as it is light. Made from durable jersey-backed woven nylon with leather trim, it scores points in the style department too. Perfect for housing essentials for a short getaway or even a gym session, it also comes in black and black and “clotted cream” tone stripes, aside from the evergreen shown here.
Balenciaga Bazar Shopper XL
Size really does matter, especially when it comes to finding a bag large yet flexible enough to accommodate all your mini-holiday knick-knacks. Look no further than Balenciaga’s Bazar Shopper bag in XL! This colourful lambskin traveling companion is big on space and character with its colourful stripes and ample room to fit just about anything you want! An embossed gold company logo on the front highlights its Italian heritage.
Louis Vuitton Keepall 55 Bandouliere
In true Louis Vuitton tradition, this carrier boasts the brand’s signature quality finishing from the natural cowhide leather trimmings to the golden brass buckles, zips and joints, right down to the meticulously detailed hand stitching of its classic Monogram canvas. Bandouliere, French for ‘worn over the shoulder’ is a name befitting this cabin-sized beauty which includes a removable shoulder strap along with a padlock and leather ID holder just in case.
Longchamp Le Pliage Travel Bag
Inspired by origami, Longchamp’s Le Pliage collection is convenience in its simplest form. The bag folds away into paperback size for easy storage but once expanded, holds about as many belongings as can be put into a regular duffel bag. Also iconic is its lightness and durability which means this Bilberry coloured Nylon carry-on is good to go anywhere at anytime!
Cuyana Le Sud Overnight
It may be called an overnight bag but Cuyana’s leather and canvas sling-on can certainly last you a longer trip with a large enough interior and adequate inner plus outer pockets for your travel necessities. Made from Turkish materials, it is not only a pleasure to carry but its mixed soft grey/natural tone is also soothing to the eye. Adjustable side straps tidy up its look once you’re all packed and ready to roll!
