Any frequent flyer will know that maximizing carry-on space is a must on a long-haul flight, so swapping your small purse for a roomy designer tote is a no-brainer.
If you’re living our dreams of vacationing overseas, packing the essentials, especially for the flight itself, is of the utmost importance. After all, there’s nothing worse than paying $15 for a lip balm at the airport after realizing you left yours at home.
The perfect travel tote is chic, easy to carry (preferably with a shoulder strap), and has plenty of room for a change of clothes, travel documents, a book, and everything in between.
If you’re looking for inspiration, a favorite of in-flight celebrities including Sofia Vergara, Jessica Alba, Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez is the iconic Dior Book Tote.
But, there are endless options when it comes to finding a designer tote bag for travel, so we’ve narrowed down a few more favorites (including those mentioned above) below.
