Two years of pandemic-induced lockdown has made us eager to jump on any and every travel opportunity, from quick overnights to month-long bucket list trips and everything in between. As you may know, we at ELLE.com care a great deal about fashion and accessories. Packing light is not quite our style, even for weekend getaways (especially when there might be a photo opp involved), so we take our travel bags very seriously. Instead of schlepping around a worn-out duffel bag, upgrade your travel aesthetic with a chic carryall that says “I’m an adult”—even if your long weekend is filled with questionable decisions. We’re currently eyeing a baby blue carry-on, a Gucci-fied carryall, and more bags worthy of a long weekend. Set up your OOO auto-reply and shop our roundup of 22 travel bags, here.

Weekender Travel Bag
It’s the O.G. bag you packed for middle school slumber parties but with a grown-up look. (Although, they make the weekender in the classic Vera Bradley prints, too, and who are we to condemn paisley?)
