With all of the hubbub at the airports these days who feels like flying anywhere? Check this, don’t check that, carry on, not a carry on - who knows anymore? Well don’t put that passport on ice just yet. Heys Luggage has come out with a new xcase Mini, a smaller version of the ever-so popular xcase. The xcase Mini comes in bold bright colours and features LED lights within its wheels, so everyone will know to stand aside when you’re racing to catch that last minute flight to Paris.

The 18” mini - perfect for those stringent carry on restrictions - has the same features as the original xcase, with it’s curved handle, internal divider, glossy surface and it’s the world’s lightest at less than five pounds.

We suggest packing only the bare essentials. Happy traveling!

Red or white? Sometimes it’s just too difficult to choose. Sometimes you want both and that’s why we’re crushing on Built NY’s Two Bottle Tote, now you don’t have to choose. Perfect for picnics, these neoprene - think wetsuit material - totes snugly fit your bottled bevies so they’ll stay hot or cold for up to four hours. Clink-proof, to prevent breakage, the two bottle tote stretches to hold and insulate two 750ml or 1-liter bottles.

Available in a variety of patterns and colours - we love the Soho Stripe in rust - these lightweight, versatile totes are stylish and durable, did we mention machine-washable and the soft-grip handle makes transporting a cinch.

Who doesn’t love a picnic in the park!

You’ll be sure to spot your luggage coming down the conveyor belt now that Stella McCartney has launched a 17-piece collection with Le SportSac. The diverse colour palette (solids, quilted and prints) is both full of whimsy and lady-like, and like McCartney herself, the line is both eco-friendly and fashionable– it’s made out of 100% recycled eco-polyester.

We’re currently in love with the large bowling bag which is perfect for carry-ons—it can hold everything you need to take your flight from dab to fab—or for toting your work-out gear (Stella McCartney for Adidas of course) to and from the gym.

McCartney’s first limited edition travel collection combines both everyday functionality with fashion sensibility, designed for the busy, modern woman.

You’ll look great and feel good about toting this luggage—being environmentally friendly and all, so may we suggest you treat yourself. To a vacation perhaps?
