When you dream of taking your first picture in front of the Coliseum in Rome, you don't want to worry about how your bag looks hanging off your arm. Traveling comes with its own set of challenges, and the last thing you should stress over is your luggage. A good bag is a girl's best friend. From statement travel bags for women to packing cubes and seat-back organizers, here are the travel essentials for women you'll want to take with you to ease your travel.
Travel Friendly Bags
What makes a bag travel-friendly? Two things you should look for are storage and organization. When you travel, you need to prepare for the unexpected, so it's helpful to have a bag that can expand and collapse according to your needs. An expandable backpack can give you the extra space to take a blanket on a cold flight or pack a few extra snacks for a long train ride.
If you're going for a short trip, you'll want a bag that has optimal storage and a minimal profile. Consider using a bag that has a separate compartment in the base so that you can store your shoes and other items away from delicate clothing. These types of bags make packing a breeze, and you can spend your extra minutes soaking up holiday time.
Bags To Make a Statement
If you're traveling for work or going to an event, you want a bag that travels well and also makes a statement. Briefcases are a thing of the past, so embrace a sleek tote to carry everything you need to and from the conference hall. You can choose the amount of storage space based on your needs and pick a bag that has a minimal or medium profile. If you need even more space while on the go, consider active bags such as a duffle or a sport carryall.
Always check the inner pockets and sections to ensure that your tote has enough space to keep your items organized. You don't want to struggle mid-presentation if you can't find your flash drive right away.
Packing Cubes and Organizers
Packing cubes and other organizing accessories are great at reducing stress when it comes to living out of a suitcase. When you're jet-setting around the world, staying organized is like a superpower. Packing cubes make it that much easier to keep your suitcase accessible, neat, and tidy. If you have to pack for various types of weather and different events, packing cubes will save your sanity.
Remember to keep soiled and clean clothes separate until you can get your clothes laundered. Choose a bag or packing cube for outfits you've already worn so that you keep track of what is still clean. Otherwise you might end up with a clean outfit that smells like a fish and chips shop when you'd rather smell like a bed of roses.
Having the right bags when you travel makes a big difference when it comes to stress. Discover your next favorite weekender bag today and prepare to head off on your next great adventure.
