Girly

Reversible wrap skirt by Libby Dibby


Pack light yet super cute. Over twenty combos to choose from, for two very different skirts in one.

Antiqued brass airplane and 16-inch chain Transit necklace by Maneki


Sure to spark conversations with other travelers. And maybe pilots.

Portable iP22C MP3 speaker system by Lucky


These eight-inch speakers are built into their own super adorable Asian-inspired travel case. Four AAs should give you about 24 hours of sound.

Packable Wide Brim Hat by Coolibar


Made of material that blocks 98 percent of the sun’s UV rays. Plus, you can crush, crumple or fold it into your purse or suitcase. Not bad for thirty bucks, eh? This one is really cute, cuter than the photos portray, even, but if it really isn’t your style, check out the dozens of others. Plus a bunch for dudes.

Royal cashmere travel pants by PB Travel

Behold: The Perfect Flying Pant, stretchy and pajama-soft, with that rare combo of class and comfort.

Made of money? Get the matching cashmere hoodie, too.

Day Tripper 17-inch rolling tote by Baggallini


Before you leave for the airport, must you wash all dishes, clean all floors, hang fresh hand towels in the bathroom and triple-check your stove’s burners to ensure they are, in fact, off? Yes? Then man, do I have the suitcase for you. It weighs just 5.5 pounds, unzips completely flat and is small enough to fit under the airplane seat in front of you. Plentiful extras include a laptop pocket, lipstick slots and a clear quart-sized toiletry pouch that clips to the inside of the bag with its own leash. Super for those who are, or aspire to be, hyper-organized.

Handmade silk jewelry roll

Looks like a little present, all rolled up and tied with its sweet silk ribbon, waiting for you in your luggage.

Gabs convertible totes by Urban Junket

Genius for the lady traveler, I tell you. First off: Different materials on each side to match different outfits. But then? Side snaps transform it from flat tote to boxy handbag. That’s four purses in one. I did the math. And look at that cute little detachable notepad hanging there, for road thoughts or to prevent sullying a friendly exchange of emails by digging for a business card.

Loads classier than the mini Tupperware I currently use to house Advils and vitamins on the road.
