Purse Picks: Overnight

Purse Picks: Over night



With Memorial Day fast approaching, the unofficial start of summer will be here before we know it! And if your schedule looks anything like mine, it means your weekends are filling up with out of town trips for weddings, family get togethers or just a short, relaxing getaway to the beach. Okay let's be honest, it's definitely more of the first two for me, but still!

When it comes to these short trips, I tend to overpack. Probably because I overpack for any trip I take. I swear I'll never understand those people who can fit anything and everything they need for an entire week in a itsy bitsy carry on, let alone be one of them. But these overnight bags are a great way to be forced to edit how much stuff you tote along. I feel like it's a stepping stone to packing lighter in general. Plus, they're all super cute and way more fun than an ugly suitcase...Or, in my case, the Adidas duffel bag I've had since high school. So. Embarrassing.

Happy weekend!

XO,
Alison

  1. Those are spectacular...! That polka-dot one is calling my name, but LeSportSac is so lightweight and long-lasting. Tough decisions! Thanks for the great round-up. Now you just need to find travel cosmetic bags that are actually big enough for the things we really carry. Am I the only one who can't fit a hairbrush in a hygiene bag? ;)

  5. I am definitely still carrying around a sporty duffel bag when I have someplace to go -- which most often is just to my in law's house so I suppose it doesn't matter too much, they don't much care about what I bring my thing in. Someday I'll have to upgrade to a cute bag!

  9. Overpacking is the story of my life. I'm always that girl who is juggling WAY too much in her arms, struggling to get through airport security. LOL I can't help it. I just know I'm going to want/need all of these things. ;)

  10. I constantly over pack, but I do so because my travel mates always forget certain things so I bring extra!
