I have two trips planned: one to New York City (my birthplace) and one to Charleston , South Carolina (a place that I have always wanted to visit). I intend to go on many more!

My husband and I have decided to add traveling to our activity list as we are not getting any younger. There are many places we want to see, and it is a great opportunity to reconnect away from the daily hustle and bustle. Shaking up the routine is healthy!

I am always prepared, and here are some of my tried and true favorite luggage choices:

 

Brighton Large Cosmetic Case

This case is as elegant as it is useful. It is large enough to function as an overnight bag, yet small enough to carry by its double handles or crossbody. It is sturdy and gorgeous.

 

Samsonite

We have been using Samsonite luggage for a zillion years. It is durable and Samsonite stands by its warranty with regard to repairs. We own the Samsonite LIFT 29″ Spinner Expandable and the Samsonite Cruisair Elite 29″ 4-wheel Spinner Luggage, among others.

 

LeSportsac

I always travel with an empty LeSportsac Large Weekender folded in my other luggage. It inevitably gets filled with either dirty clothes or additional purchases made while on vacation.

 

Louis Vuitton

The most elegant carry-on! The Louis Vuitton Palermo GM is a great choice.

 

Atlantic

The Atlantic Luggage Ultra Lite 25 Inch Upright is the luggage that I go to when all I want is a carry-on and not checked baggage. It holds a lot and is easy to maneuver.

 

Briggs & Riley

The Briggs & Riley Deluxe Wheeled Garment Bag is good for holding everything and anything.
