Happy Packing! Bag yourself a beautiful bag!







Friday has arrived and I am bursting with a more intense Friday feeling than usual!  Yes, you guessed it, I am soon to be jetting off on my last-but certainly not least-summer holiday of the season!  I am smack in the middle of the packing dance, twirling between wardrobe and bag and back,  up and down and in and out........  Unlike many others I actually enjoy packing.  The whole process puts a spring in my step, a song in my throat and a sparkle in my eye......for me the holiday begins when the bag comes out!  

Of course some bags induce this premature holiday euphoria more than others..... Here are some of my top picks for pure bag bliss!

The vintage case by Dandelion Daydreamer photographed above is the ultimate accessories for a chic weekend break.  This case costs $126, but if you mention the Top Tips for Trips Blog on purchase you will get a 10% discount!  







I lobe these these 'Winter Meadow Holdalls' from Cath Kidston at £85 for the carry bag and £110 for the wheel version.  



You will definitely turn some green eyes at the airport with one of these fabulous Bow Trolleys from Topshop for £80!




This Fleurie Trinny Holdall from Urban Outfitters can be carried by hand or wheeled along beside you.  .€59. 



I love this retro case from River Island for £59.  A stylish solution for carry-on luggage.  

Another great place to find luggage is TK Max.  There is always a great selection of designer weekend bags and luggage sets at bargain prices! I have seen some fabulous carpet bags-Mary Poppins' style- there in the past, as well as some high vis suitcases!  Usually their luggage is in limited quantity so you should have no problem locating your unique bag on the conveyor belt at the airport!  




Happy packing!
