Best Travel Bags for Summer

Summer is officially here, which means the summer travel season has begun. Some aspects of travel (security, customs, etc.) can be a chore, but a great travel bag can help brighten even the dullest travel experiences.

For airline travel, my favorite bags are my Goyard Artois MM, Goyard Jeanne, and MZ Wallace Medium Metro Tote. The Goyard Artois MM is best suited for destinations that include seaside getaways, sandy beaches, or poolside retreats because it easily doubles as a beach bag or resort tote. The Goyard Jeanne is a city bag at heart, and works best for downtown jaunts and business travel. The MZ Wallace Metro Tote is the perfect travel bag for a mom-on-the-go because it doubles as a diaper bag. It's functional, durable, and easy to clean.

I also like to pack a smaller, lightweight bag in my rollaboard suitcase to use when I reach my destination. For me, the larger travel bags feel cumbersome when I'm out and about on vacation. My personal favorites are the Goyard St. Louis PM and the MZ Wallace Mini Soho. The St. Louis PM is perfect for most destinations, but I highly recommend the Mini Soho for theme park vacations. The abundant pockets, crossbody strap, and zip closures are essential when you're hitting the parks all day.
