Carry-On Suitcase
Every frequent flyer needs to great carry-on spinner. A spinner (carry-on on 4 wheels) is a must-have for getting through the airport, and this one is beautiful. It glides so smoothly, and the design is the best I’ve seen. I keep my tote or duffel on top and just glide it through the airport. Keep your must-haves for travel in your tote and choose a bag with comfortable handles or one that slides onto your spinner’s handle.
Tote Bag
A weekender, duffel, or any kind of tote is a traveler’s must-have. This one is beautiful – I have it in this style and love that it matches the carry-on spinner. It has enough space for a laptop and all my travel essentials, smart straps that slip over the handles of your luggage, and a crossbody strap.
Packable Bag
I always bring a packable duffle or backpack – they fold up and are great for any additional purchases made on your trip.
Tech Carryall
I just ordered this tech carryall and like that unlike most laptop cases, it has two pockets for cords and other necessities. It comes in two different sizes (I got the larger one for my Macbook Pro) and is such a beautiful and useful gift for anyone with a laptop who loves beautiful things.
Packing Cubes
I wouldn’t call these one of the most unique gift ideas for a traveler, but these two sets are two of my favorites. A great travel gift for the organizer in your life – packing cubes are one of my personal favorites. From shoe bags to packing cubes, this beautiful set can be monogrammed and comes in a few colors. It makes a great gift.
Makeup Bag
I love this small makeup bag for my purse or carry-on.
Travel Jewelry Case
This travel jewelry case is beautiful and would be great on the go or in your closet. I like keeping the pieces I wear regularly in a small jewelry case so they’re easy to find.
Monogrammed Train Case
This is on my wish list this year. It’s made of full grain leather and measures 7.5″ L x 10.25″ W x 6.5″ H | 19.1cm x 26cm x 16.5cm. It’s tall enough to fit 7 inch full-size containers upright and has two interior zippered pockets and four interior open pockets. There’s a large elastic band to secure bottles and small elastic band for hair ties; both with snap closures and water-resistant lining to protect the case from spills. Metal D-rings were thoughtfully included to the exterior so you can clip on a crossbody strap for easy carrying.
Leather Computer Sleeve
This leather computer sleeve can be monogrammed – it comes in a few colors and is so beautiful.
Passport Holder
This passport holder holds up to 6 passports and is a great family gift for a family that loves to travel.
Travel Journal
A great gift for an avid traveler and bonus – it can be personalized.
Leather Travel Case Set
Everyone needs a toiletry bag for all their essentials and travel lovers will love this set. This set is beautiful, can be monogrammed, and I’ve had mine for years. It comes in a bunch of different colors and makes a great travel gift.
Capsules
These capsules are amazing and hold everything from serums and creams to vitamins and jewelry. It’s a great idea and is one of the most practical travel gifts you can give. The compact design is a space-saver, and these eliminate single-use plastics since they can be filled with everything you use at home.
Handheld Steamer
This looks like the easiest-to-use and most convenient steamer. If you know someone who loves a pressed collar (like yours truly) this would be an appreciated and fun travel gift.
Wireless Headphones
These are the most budget-friendly airpods, but they’re great. I have this set and they’re the perfect fit, and work well on an airplane.
Compact Camera
On my most recent trips, I haven’t brought my DSLR out at all. It’s just too big with kids and all my stuff, but a more compact camera would be such a nice thing to have.
Portable Charger
The compact travel charge is the size of a few credit cards, and the mini charger is even smaller. I love both options – such practical gifts for the traveler and ones that would be appreciated by anyone who loves to travel. Something with multiple USB ports is always a bonus for the professional traveler.
