Travel + Leisure / Brian Kopinski

No matter how you slice it, crossbody bags are some of the most versatile bags a shopper can buy. Not only are they typically quite stylish, but they’re also ideal for travel considering their size. There are even quite a few types of crossbodies to consider: there are traditional crossbody bags (think camera bags) and there are also sling bags and belt bags, which can each be worn in various ways. Whichever style you choose, the majority feature adjustable straps so you can customize your own personal, comfy fit.

Luckily, when we turned to our Travel + Leisure team and some additional frequent travelers for their favorite bags, the results were packed with crossbodies of all types. We recommended dozens of items we already own and travel with often, and we each rated our picks based on capacity, comfort, ease of use, portability, and value. The bags below are our favorites.

Best Overall

Baggu nylon crescent bag.

• Capacity 5 /5
• Ease of Use 5 /5
• Value 4.8 /5

It’s extremely versatile and comfortable to wear.

Some may not think it’s the most stylish bag.

There are many reasons Baggu’s Medium Nylon Crescent Bag made the top spot on our list, but the biggest reason is its versatility. We have used this crossbody for everything from weekend trips and amusement park days to running errands and commuting. Beyond that, we can’t get over just how comfy it is to wear. The strap is pretty wide for a crossbody, which helps distribute the bag’s weight on our shoulder — plus the strap is adjustable, allowing the wearer to position it however they feel most comfortable. It’s also ultra-spacious, machine-washable, easy to pack into larger luggage , and significantly more durable than it initially feels. 

Inside its roomy main compartment, there are two pockets to neatly store smaller items like keys, cosmetics, cards, and cash. The top zipper is impressively smooth and we’ve never experienced it catching or snagging on anything in the several months we’ve been using it. It has quickly become our everyday bag, and it’s even unisex and available in a wide range of colorways, including hot pink, brown, a cloud print, and more. 

The Details: 8 x 13.75 x 4 inches | Nylon 

Hammitt Stadium-Approved Clear Bag

• Capacity 3 /5

It’s an elevated version of a classic transparent bag.

It may be too small if you aren’t using it to fit stadium guidelines.

We originally bought the Hammit Tony SML because we wanted a clear stadium-approved bag to take to concerts, but its cute embellishments and versatile size have kept us reaching for it again and again over the last few months. We’ve brought it to sporting events, the beach, and overnight trips, and each time we were impressed by just how much the bag can hold for its size. We’ve stuffed it with our phone, earpods, makeup, and even a Kindle Oasis, and it remained lightweight each time. Its wide, adjustable strap feels comfortable even on bare skin, and metal studs provide a unique coolness. You can grab it in eight clear styles with colored leather accents, and there are even more non-clear hues.

The Details: 8 x 2 x 7.5 inches | Clear TPU with leather accents

Best Leather

Quince leather foldover clutch.

It’s stylish, organized, and can be worn in two different ways.

Though the exterior slip pocket is meant for a phone, it will be a very tight squeeze.

This sleek, slightly asymmetrical clutch has made it onto plenty of our trips over the past several months, both near and far. Shoppers can choose to carry it in its original clutch form or they can attach the included strap to transform it into an everyday crossbody bag. We love that it has two separate zippered compartments large enough to fit bulkier items, while an exterior slip compartment and various interior pockets make organization a breeze. The gorgeous Italian pebble leather feels soft and luxe, and the gold hardware is ultra eye-catching. You can find this bag in dusk blue, cappuccino, merlot, and black.

The Details: 7.5 x 2 x 10 inches | Italian leather, microfiber suede

Travel + Leisure / Joy Kim

Best Anti-theft

Sherpani esprit at.

Hackers and thieves are no match for this sleek sling bag.

It may feel slightly inconvenient for left-handed travelers.

Sling bags are made for travel, and one of our all-time favorites is Sherpani’s Esprit AT. We’ve taken it on everything from weeks-long international trips to weekend getaways and it comes in handy every time thanks to anti-theft features including slash-resistant mesh, a cut-proof strap, locking zippers, and a chair lock loop. It even boasts RFID protection to prevent hackers from stealing your personal information. In addition to those safety features, the sling bag also has a total of seven pockets ranging from zippered exterior pockets to fleece-lined interior slip pockets, as well as an adjustable strap and key leash. The bag is large enough to fit a 10-inch tablet, yet compact enough to count as a personal item on planes. 

The Details: 11 x 18 x 5 inches | 13 ounces | Nylon

Best Water-repellent

Lululemon all night festival bag.

It’s versatile and stylish enough to use every day — plus its sleek nylon repels water.

The magnetic closures may affect some phones and other devices.

We originally bought this bag to use on a weeklong trip out west, but we loved it so much, it has since become our everyday purse. It’s spacious, comfortable to carry, and easy to use thanks to its size and adjustable shoulder strap. It’s packed with both interior and exterior pockets as well as zipper and magnetic closures to keep everything inside secure. A wide opening in the main compartment even makes seeing and grabbing your items simple. We can’t get enough of the water-repellent nylon, which is helpful while at the pool or exploring new destinations in the rain. Perhaps best of all, though, is this bag is as stylish as it is functional — so you can pair it with any outfit and take it virtually anywhere.  

The Details: 7.9 x 3.9 x 8.3 inches | Nylon, polyester

Most Comfortable

Kavu rope bag sling pack.

After years of wear, it still never cuts into our shoulders — and it fits so much stuff.

The fabric fastener closure may not stay shut as well with repeated use.

This bag has been basically everywhere with us over the last few years: major vacations, road trips, flights, the mall, the park, and beyond. That’s partially because it’s so comfy to carry (the strap feels soft and broken-in on the first wear), but also because it fits so much inside. Designed with two vertical zip compartments and two smaller pockets, we felt like we had enough space for all our essentials and more — in fact, we used this while traveling with toddlers and were able to stow several of their items, too. The cotton canvas fabric feels soft against our back and shoulders and it appears to be high quality. In other words, we have a feeling this bag will withstand years of travel. 

The Details: 20 x 11 x 5 inches | 12 ounces | Cotton canvas

Travel + Leisure / Kathryn Standing

Most Versatile

Senreve belt bag.

• Value 4.5 /5

It can be worn three ways and it’s durable enough to take anywhere.

It’s pretty pricey for a belt bag.

We’ve carried this belt bag across our bodies, around our waist like a true fanny pack, and even as a clutch — and we’ve loved it every time. Whether traveling, hitting the gym, or heading to dinner with friends, the Senreve Belt Bag never feels out of place. It’s strappy and stylish like a purse, but it fits a bit more securely, like a fanny pack or sling bag. The microsuede interior feels luxurious and the magnetic flap closure offers a sense of security without adding bulk or taking away from the bag’s sharp appearance. There are only two pockets inside, but we felt that was plenty for the size, especially considering the spacious main compartment. It’s also scratch-, stain-, and water-resistant, so we feel comfortable getting a little rough with it, even in a lighter color. This bag comes in six different textures and colors ranging from Chablis to merlot.

The Details: 8 x 5 x 2 inches | 14.24 ounces | Leather, suede

Travel + Leisure / Morgan Ashley Parker

Best Organization

Baggallini everywhere bagg.

• Capacity 4 /5

It’s packed with pockets.

The spacious main compartment can feel like a bit of a black hole.

This is the type of bag that can hold “everything but the kitchen sink,” but it’s still technically a crossbody, so it’s truly the best of both worlds. It has pockets on just about every side, both internally and externally, and the main compartment is large enough to fit a small laptop or tablet, plus more. The strap is adjustable, the fabric is water-resistant, and the top zips closed to keep your belongings safe. It even comes with a removable RFID wristlet to keep your most important documents safe, or to use when you don’t need to carry a larger bag. Grab the crossbody in one of ten colors and prints such as dark cherry or gray camo — or even a black-and-beige, faux-shearling-lined option.

The Details: 11 x 9 x 5 inches | 12 ounces

Tumi Persia Crossbody

It’s stylish as can be and it’s small enough to take anywhere.

The strap is not detachable.

If you’re into bags that are so compact they’re downright cute, you’ll love the Persia Crossbody by Tumi. It’s slim, sleek, and perfect for traveling with just the essentials. We love flying with it because it’s small enough to fit into a larger personal item as needed, but leaves the essentials close at hand mid-flight. And though it’s one of the smallest crossbodies on our list, it actually has an impressive number of pockets, so it’s still able to fit your keys, phone, wallet, AirPods, Kindle, makeup, and even snacks with room to spare. It even has a key leash; three card slots; and a wide, adjustable strap for added convenience. If you prefer to personalize the bag, you can do so with the monogramming feature.   

The Details: 7.5 x 5.3 x 2.0 inches | 9.6 ounces | Nylon

Best Colors

Lo & sons pearl.

• Capacity 2 /5

Between its several available colors and three different leather options, it comes in a total of 21 styles.

It’s best for those who travel with just a few small items.

We’ve been using this purse for more than four years and it’s still finding ways to impress us. It’s not overly spacious, but it’s large enough to fit a few essential items and it’s the ideal size for trips ranging from international journeys to weekend getaways. Designed with one main compartment, two separate zip compartments, and a handful of other interior zip and slip pockets, you won’t find a crossbody of this size with better organization features. The detachable strap and touchably smooth leather are testaments to the bag’s high-quality construction, but our favorite thing about it might be the available colors: there are 21 color and leather options ranging from navy Saffiano leather to cognac cactus leather.

The Details: 7.75 x 9.5 x 3 inches | 14.4 ounces | Leather

Best Designer

Bottega veneta loop camera bag.

It’s roomier than it looks — and because it's Bottega Veneta, you know it's going to last.

It’s the most expensive item on our list by far.

Bottega Veneta’s chic little Small Loop Camera Bag may have snagged our best designer spot, but after using it for the past year, we think it’s the best bag for city exploration, too. We’ve used it in London for a weeklong trip, toted it around the towns of Spain, and have taken it with us pretty much everywhere in New York City. Despite its compact size and single compartment, it’s spacious enough to fit plenty of items like a small wallet, sunglasses, a phone, keys, cosmetics, and more. The woven leather design and gold hardware only up the luxurious feel, while an unstructured strap feels soft on the shoulder. We love this bag in classic black, but it’s also available in white, pink, and navy. 

The Details: 6.1 x 8.7 x 3.5 inches | Lambskin leather

Kavu Sydney Satchel

It’s well-made, reasonably priced, and packed with pockets.

It’s not particularly fancy or fashion-forward.

The Kavu Sydney Satchel may be our value pick, but don’t let that deter you — there’s not much the bag can’t do. We’ve spent the last four or five years taking it pretty much everywhere, including various national parks, multi-week Europe trips, and nights out with friends. Because it’s made of extra-durable cotton, it holds up against unfavorable weather and rough travel. It’s on the larger side, so it’ll fit plenty of items including clothing, but it’s also rather slim, so it makes a great non-bulky travel bag. It’s the pockets, though, that keep us coming back to this crossbody: the oversized front pocket holds larger items like wallets, tablets, and other devices, while the main compartment boasts several smaller interior pockets for things like cards and cosmetics. To top it all off, the Sydney comes in 26 fun prints and colors.  

The Details: 15 x 13 x 1.5 inches | 12 ounces | Cotton canvas

Best for Parents

Canvelle sling bag.

It’s the most stylish sling bag we’ve ever seen, and it has space for both parents' items and their kids' stuff.

It’s a little pricey for a sling bag.

This is the daily bag we’ve been using for the past few years to carry our stuff and our kids’ stuff — without sacrificing style. While it’s not quite the size of a full-fledged baby bag, it does have the space for a change of clothes, some snacks, a full-size wallet, sunglasses, sunscreen, and other everyday essentials. Because it has a wide, super comfy strap and boasts high-end construction, it makes an excellent personal item when flying. It even has a cushioned back panel, a water-resistant lining, water-resistant back pockets, and a key clip. After using it for a couple of years, we think it feels like an oversized belt bag that can be worn across the body. 

The Details: 17 x 11 x 5 inches | 9.6 ounces | Poly canvas

Other Crossbodies We Liked

A few other crossbody bags almost made our list, but were ultimately cut due to minor issues we experienced while using them.

Athleta All About Crossbody : This crossbody is quite durable and comfy, and we like it enough that we’ve used it pretty consistently over the last few months. It’s just a bit too small to use as a travel bag or even as a commuter bag. 

Lo & Sons Waverley 2 : This bag is made for travel and it’s come along with us everywhere from Cancun to Paris. It’s super slim yet packed with pockets, so it’s a packing dream, but we noticed that after a few years of use, there’s some discoloration on the leather.

Lug Coupe XL Convertible Crossbody Bag : We appreciated that the Lug Coupe XL Convertible Crossbody Bag is somewhat more stylish than the average belt bag or fanny pack and it has a sufficient number of pockets. Still, we feel it’s a little pricey for a small polyester bag — plus the strap closure seems strange for this type of bag.

For this roundup, the Travel + Leisure team gave feedback about their favorite crossbody bags for travel that they already own. We asked each participant to rate their crossbody in categories including capacity, comfort, portability, ease of use, and value. Then, as a team, we pared down the list based on those ratings and our own research. Our team members have taken these crossbody bags on trips of various lengths and have owned them anywhere between a few months and several years.

Tips For Buying a Crossbody Bag

Make sure it fits your essentials.

It can be tempting to go for the most visually appealing crossbody bag you can find, but keep in mind crossbodies are small by nature and if you can’t fit all your daily items inside, you’ll just end up frustrated on your travels. You may even find yourself wanting to buy a new bag once you arrive at your destination. That said, it’s wise to prioritize size over everything else when shopping for a crossbody.

Look for padded, adjustable straps

Crossbody straps are often thinner than those on totes and backpacks, so if your bag is stuffed to the brim, that thin strap may dig into your shoulder. To avoid discomfort in your shoulder or any body part the bag may repeatedly rub against, consider crossbodies with padded, adjustable straps. 

Prioritize built-in organization and safety features

Depending on what you plan on traveling with, it’s a good idea to shop for crossbodies that have plenty of pockets as well as safety features such as zip tops or both zips and snaps for double protection. Multiple pockets mean there’s a spot for everything, making it easier to locate things inside the purse. Meanwhile, safety features like locking zippers, slash-resistant straps, and RFID-blocking technology help prevent pickpockets and hackers from getting their hands on your most precious items.

Standard crossbodies can be worn over the shoulder or, as the name suggests, across the body. More specific crossbodies like belt bags and sling bags can be worn across the chest or back or even around the waist — fanny pack-style.

When worn correctly, it’s harder for crossbodies to slip off your shoulder or be stolen than totes and handbags. Crossbodies also allow shoppers to go hands-free, which is helpful on challenging hikes, cycling adventures, and when there’s other luggage to carry.

Typically, airlines only allow travelers to bring two items into the cabin with them: a carry-on — which is usually stowed in the overhead bins — and a smaller personal item that must fit under the seat in front of you. Most crossbody bags are small enough to be considered a personal item (18 x 14 x 8 inches) and some larger ones count as carry-ons (22 x 14 x 9 inches). But if you’re hoping to bring a crossbody into the cabin in addition to another personal item and carry-on, TSA will likely ask you to pack your crossbody into another piece of luggage or leave it at the airport altogether. Something smaller and more compact, like a phone purse , might work better since it can be stashed in a carry-on or personal item easily if necessary.

Nice article on the best backpacks for travel, I bought a Rebecca Minkoff Julian backpack from the site, a few years ago, because of your review. It’s one of the most carried bags in my closet. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Everyone, Having read through all this, and from my own experience…light is always better! Therefore I offer the following 3 items for consideration. very small and handy wallet: Chums Surfshort wallet One small and very attractive waistbag by Patagonia. and last, The Patagonia LW 15L Courier bag. All of these work for men and women. And the Courier bag holds a LOT plus has a zip top and wide, comfy and adjustable strap. Currently at $41.50 at Patagonia. Regular price is $59, and I highly recommend black! I have dozens of bags, including Baggallini ( which has gone downhill the past few years). This bag is the best of all of them!!! Hope you guys check it out…along with my other faves. My luggage is from Tortuga and is very lightweight, the “right” size for my 5’3” ht. And will expand from 27 to 32 ( or 34L) with a simple zipper, a feature I’ve never had to use. For ultra lightweight packing cubes and pouches…I like Eagle Creek the best. With back problems and being older, the lighter the better for me. Hope this is helpful.

Happy Travels. Connie

PS- wanted to add the photos, but couldn’t see any way to do it. Sorry

Henri Bendel is closed…RIP super cute convertible backpack. 🙁

It is such a shame that Henri Bendel has closed Stephanie 🙁

I really like Pacsafe products, their small backpacks are ultra secure and some are quite stylish.

Hi Dianne, thank you for sharing your recommendation of Pacsafe, their backpacks are quite popular amongst our readers, particularly their anti-theft backpacks! 🙂

I read this article and I bought the sole society backpack in black. It is very stylish, and great price, I use for meetings and it fits my laptop, and to go sightseeing as well, I wanted a bag that will do both. I want this one to work for me, I tried it in the last 3 months in three countries, I am happy except for one thing, the flap in front has a magnetic clasp that it is really difficult to close, and it opens easily, it is worse when the bag is full. This bag will be much better if it had a buckle instead so that you could secure it, you could fit more items that way. That will be the only thing I wish sole society changes. Other than this the bag is awesome, I will keep trying it in two more trips in January from Peru to Japan.

I love bags from Matt & Nat. They are a Canadian vegan company who makes their bags out of recycled bottles! You’d never guess when you look at them. Their most popular design for backpack is the ‘Brave’ one, which comes in different colors depending on the season, but the black one is a permanent staple!

Love your post! I just stumbled across your blog and love it! I am in search of a travel backpack myself and can’t seem to find one, but this post has helped a lot!

I am looking for a backpack that is fashionable yet practical for my camera that I recently purchased – something I can travel with, take as a carry-on when flying, and possibly hike in! Is there a backpack out there like that or do I just need to purchase a backpack for hiking and a fashionable one for when my husband and I are out and about? Thanks so much!

A TFG team member actually just picked up the NorthFace Isabella for a daypack and she loves it! Big enough for a camera but not too large! If you’re looking for something that’s more of a suitcase size carry-on I always loved my Osprey Farpoint 40L, it’s the perfect size for carry-on! Happy travels!

I am a professional photographer and just use an insert for my gear while traveling because my camera backpacks dont really work for traveling. There are several brands of bags for photographers that are super cute as well as nice. But be willing to spend 200-500 on a bag that can hold your gear. Or just use your favorite bag amd get a mountainsmith insert for about $30. I just did that to a recent backpacking trip to puerto rico and it worked perfectly in my backpack with room to spare for everything else I needed.

I love your blog by the way. I am heading to Europe (Germany, Austria, and Czech Republic) for a two week honeymoon next week. It will be my first time traveling overseas and your blog has been helping me the most to prepare for this exciting trip. So thank you! 🙂

I am trying to find the best fashion backpack to take over there. I am trying to decide between your number 1 Rebecca Minkoff Julian Black Backpack or your number 2 Marc Jacobs. Which one would you choose to stay comfortable and have your things to stay protected at the same time as you travel around Europe?

Thanks for all of your help again!

I love the Rebecca Minkoff! It’s a great bag and has lasted me for so long! Happy travels Alexandra!

I got one from Target that is similar to the Sole Society faux-leather bag, but I seriously lust after the Marc Jacobs or Jetsetter!!!!

I’m so happy with my Rebecca Minkoff backpack. It was a splurge but since I only have one bag/purse/shoulder bag it’s been well worth it on my long term travels

Which looks better on a plus-size very busty girl – a cross body bag or a backpack? I’m a mom, so even though I’d prefer to go bagless when sightseeing, I have to carry a bag or purse of some sort. I feel like my cross body bag emphasizes my chest to the point of making me self conscious, but backpack straps make everything pop out more too. I need to be securely hands-free, so a shoulder bag doesn’t really work. Suggestions?

Hi Dominica, great question! I agree that a cross body bag is difficult to wear without splitting your bust in half. I think the key to create an overall cleaner bust line is to make sure you have the right bra size. It wasn’t until I got to England that I found an extensive range of bra lines and had a proper fitting. Bravissimo was a complete game changer! http://www.bravissimo.com/perfectfit/ If you’ve never had one, make sure to go to a specialty bra store if you can – it will do wonders!

With that being said, a backpack would be slightly easier to wear once you have nicely paired down girls. Alternatively, a shoulder bag would draw the least amount of attention. If you choose this route I would suggest to walk with a firm grip on the shoulder strap and to avoid holding it on the side of the street. Instead, place it on the side closest to buildings. Hope this helps!

16 Stylish Weekender Bags for Women to Inspire Your Next Getaway

Any excuse for a vacation, right?

Our Top Picks:

Beis Canvas and Leather Weekender Bag

Best Budget

Bagsmart travel overnight bag.

Best Canvas

Lands' end canvas weekender duffle bag.

What should you consider when choosing a weekender bag?

Dimensions: From compact overnight bags that hold one set of clothes to those that can hold up to five-plus shoes, the size of your weekender will ultimately depend on how long you plan to travel and how many resources you need. Material: Whether you gravitate toward nylon that can withstand the elements or supple leather (real or faux!), there's a weekender for every style and budget.

Style: These weekender bags are a mix of duffels, totes , suitcases , and even convertible backpacks that are easy to carry and fit all your essentials for just a few days.

Features: Think shoe compartments, dedicated laptop sleeves, water bottle slips, and convenient exterior pockets for phones or IDs. Plenty also have trolley sleeves, a.k.a. the open-bottom slot that allows you to slide the bag onto suitcase handles. It's genius stacked on top of a roller bag for seamlessly moving through an airport.

Can a weekender bag be a carry-on? That’s one of the best parts! The majority of these weekender bags work for short excursions but also double as smart carry-ons for trips of any length. Once you’ve picked your new go-to weekender, you can grab a toiletry bag to keep yourself organized or add some hardworking travel accessories (like a mini hair dryer and jewelry case ). Comfortable clothes are ideal, too—try a pair of fabulous travel pants or one of these outfits on for size. Now all that’s left is to pick your destination—and actually see the world.

Trust us: The most talked-about weekender on the internet lives up to the hype. It has everything you need in one place: a zippered shoe compartment, a trolley sleeve, and a roomy interior with pockets for organization. It comes in seven different hues, from timeless neutrals to delightful brights.

Dimensions: 19" x 9.8" x 15.7"

Colors: Black, beige, gray, atlas pink, navy, maple brown, and olive

Employ this soft, ultra-light nylon bag as an overnighter or a gym bag. Not only does it have straps for your yoga mat, a zipped shoe compartment, and trolley sleeve, but it’s also spacious enough for your trip essentials. This Amazon gem offers endless versatility as a work bag (thanks to a handy laptop sleeve), sports bag, travel bag, and even a diaper bag.

Dimensions: 18.5" x 8.7" x 11 "

Colors: Pink, beige, black, dark pink, purple, light beige, orange, and blue

We love the summery look of a timeless canvas tote bag. This nautical-inspired convertible weekender can be worn on the shoulder, across the body, or stacked on top of luggage thanks to a handy trolley strap. It's just the right size to keep you organized for a few days out of office without being too big or bulky.

Dimensions: 18 " x 8" x 14 "

Colors: Natural/navy, black, and natural/gray

Lululemon Go Getter Large Weekender Bag

For a sleek option, look no further than this water-resistant design from Lululemon. Every detail is considered, from the padded handles for easy carrying to the mix of small pockets for devices and travel essentials and bigger ones for your storage. There’s even an interior padded pocket for your laptop and a designated spot for your water bottle so you can easily access it. Finally, there’s a back-zippered pocket with a hidden trolley-compatible strap for when you have a suitcase with you.

Dimensions: 18.5" x 8.9" x 12.6"

Color: Black

Camtop Faux-Leather-Trim Canvas Overnight Bag

Camtop's bestseller and Amazon gem was made for daily wear and tear: The cotton-lined canvas design is durable, and its heavy-duty zippers promise dependability over time. Equipped with a laptop pocket, a separate shoe compartment, and a trolley sleeve, this weekender has a lot to offer without breaking the bank.

Dimensions: 17.3" x 8.3" x 14.5"

Colors: Beige, black, beige/black, botanical print, pink, sage stripe, army green, floral print, gray, leopard, marble, spotted leopard, black and white stripe, orange floral, quilted black, quilted olive, quilted beige, and quilted pink

Everlane ReNew Transit Weekender

Everlane's travel offerings continue to impress us. This weekender is made from recycled materials, is roomy enough to carry a pair of shoes, an outfit or two, toiletries, your water bottle, and your laptop. You can wear it cross-body, on your shoulders, or on top of a rolling suitcase using the discreet trolley sleeve. What more could you need?

Dimensions: 14.2" x 7.3" x 19.5"

Colors: Warm charcoal, black, warm quartz, nutria green, and katamala olive green

Calpak Luka Duffle Bag

Calpak's bestselling Luka duffel has a roomy main upper with plenty of interior pockets and a large shoe compartment at the bottom—meaning you can stay super organized and stylish. Plus, there's a handy trolley sleeve for easy traveling.

Dimensions: 16" x 12" x 7"

Colors: Black, chocolate, and rose quartz

Lo & Sons Catalina Deluxe

With a spacious interior and separate bottom compartment —which can fit two to three pairs of shoes or your dirty laundry—this camo weekender will be a favorite for frequent travelers. In addition to the recycled poly material shown here, it also comes in a variety of eco-friendly canvas shades. This is an essential do-it-all weekender, with sturdy materials and construction that leave no room for worry.

Colors: Navy camo, gray, onyx, deep navy, and golden brown

Brouk & Co Capri 2-in-1 Garment and Duffel Bag

Are you traveling for a wedding or important business meeting? This bag will be your holy grail—it has a built-in garment bag and side pockets for shoes, plus a healthy amount of space for everything else you’ll need for the weekend. “This smart carryall makes schlepping your stuff for an overnight getaway goof-proof," Oprah said of the bag when it was featured in her 2022 Favorite Things list . "Fill up the garment bag first, then add a couple of pairs of shoes to the side pockets and zip it all up so it transforms into a duffel bag before you put in the rest of your essentials.”

Dimensions: 22" x 9" x 14 "

Colors: Tan/fuschia

Paravel Main Line Duffle

Travel like an old-school jetsetter with this chic, vintage-inspired carryall. Not only is it made from a stain-repellent coated canvas with premium leather trim, but light packers could stash up to five days’ worth of clothing inside. It also makes a fabulous gift for those who love a monogrammed moment.

Colors: Scout tan and Domino black

It has plenty of pockets inside and out to keep you organized on the go. You can easily stack it on your luggage thanks to a handy trolley strap, or the adjustable shoulder strap can be worn as a crossbody.

Dimensions: 15.35" x 12.6" x 7.87"

Colors: Black and navy blue

Away Medium Everywhere Bag

If you prefer an understated approach to style, this minimalist nylon carry-on with leather detail is ideal. We love that it stays clean easily and always looks sharp. It fits perfectly under a seat, and in addition to the requisite laptop sleeve, it even has a compartment for a water bottle or umbrella. This size is great for one or two nights away, but for more packing room, try the large size , and for an everyday bag, try the smaller version . Plus, it has a laptop and trolley sleeve to make multi-carry travel a breeze.

Dimensions: 17.7" x 11" x 9"

Colors: Navy, black, coast blue, and olive green

You’ll want the matching overnight bag and wristlet , too.)

Colors: Camel/black, shadow black, and sand stone gray

15 Travel Backpacks to Help Streamline Your Next Trip

Now boarding: your most organized self.

Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy.

But don’t just take it from me. “Being hands-free while traveling is essential, which is why a backpack is the perfect type of bag to use for all trips,” says Matilda Sandstroem, co-founder and designer at Adventurist Bags . “It will also distribute weight better than a one-shoulder bag, which will be crucial for longer travel days.” Plus, Sandstroem points out that a stylish backpack can double as your day bag once you arrive at your destination and is perfect for housing a light layer, camera, or snacks. (Good luck trying to bring that duffle bag to the Trevi fountain...)

Whether you’re packing a weekender bag or looking for the best bags on Amazon , here are 15 backpacks that make stellar travel companions.

I even get lunch into the main compartment.”

If traveling in style is a priority for you, more power to you. This leather backpack from Bottega Veneta is the best way to take to show your fellow travelers that you have taste.

Colors: Surf, Space, Mud, Black, Ardoise

Fjallraven Kånken Classic Backpack

Fjallraven: the bag that everyone has, but no one knows how to pronounce. While these bags don’t offer much in the way of organization or storage, they are extremely durable and available in a ton of colors and sizes.

Colors: 27 options

Dimensions : Width: 10.75 inches x height: 14.5 inches x depth: 4 inches

Customer review: “This backpack has been great so far! I use it for daily commutes, and it fits my 16” laptop in that compartment with ease. It is also great for being outdoors, got stuck in the rain and my laptop remained dry.”

Lubardy Travel Carry On Backpack, 40L

A waterproof, high-capacity pack + a clamshell opening – an expensive price tag = the ultimate travel backpack.

Colors: Black, Blue, Grey, or Pink

Dimensions: Width: 13.38 inches x height: 20.74 inches x depth: 7.87 inches

Customer review: “Backpacked for 10 days in Greece with this! My friends bought $100+ backpacks, and mine worked just as well for a fraction of the price. I was able to fit a large packing cube with PLENTY of clothes, two pairs of shoes (sandals), a curling iron, a sweater, and my toiletries in this bag!”

The North Face Borealis Laptop Backpack

The genius product testers over at the Good Housekeeping Institute rated this the overall best travel backpack . As someone who has regularly used this as a carry-on for nearly six years, I’d have to agree. It stands up to the test of time and is great for short trips or as a day bag.

Colors: Lime, Taupe, or Orange

Customer review: “Awesome backpack. Large, spacious, and full of compartments. Suitable for any type of trip, I love it.”

Colors: Black

Customer review: “Just returned from a two-week tour of Norway and Iceland, five different hotels, four flights. Outbreaker…made it so easy to effortlessly stay on the move…This was our first carry-on-only trip of this length, and I loved the ease of check-in and airport departure it gave us. With the hip belts to carry most of the weight, we did not suffer any back or shoulder strain.”

Beis The Expandable Backpack

If there’s one thing for certain, I don’t need another backpack. But after reading the reviews for this Beis bag...I just might have to get one for myself. It has specialized features like an expanding section and a water bottle holder that can be used in or outside the bag.

Colors: Black or Beige

Dimensions: Width: 13 inches; height: 15 inches; depth: 5-7 inches

Customer review: “Love how much room this backpack has! I took it on a trip to Italy and it was light/compact enough to put in luggage but can fit so many things. The design of this backpack is a 10/10 for me.”

Dagne Dover Dakota Neoprene Backpack

What to consider when buying a travel backpack

• Size: Don’t just eyeball it based on what size you think you want; the precise measurements matter. Each airline has its own size restrictions for carry-on bags, and these are particularly varied between domestic and international flights. “ Since you may be flying on a lot of different airlines in the future, it may be best to choose the smallest common denominator that way your backpack is sure to fit no matter which airline you travel with,” Sandstroem says.
• Security and durability: “ With most of us carrying around expensive electronics such as laptops, tablets, and camera gear, it’s important to find a backpack that will adequately protect your belongings,” Sandstroem says. “ Whether you’ll be throwing your bag on the ground, storing it under the seat of the plane, or tossing it in the overhead compartment, make sure to look for something that has both front and back padding.” You’ll also want to look for a bag that offers a padded laptop compartment that will fit your device. Some precautious customers might also opt for a bag that includes locks or some other anti-theft mechanisms.
• Weight and material: The more lightweight, the better. “ It may seem like a couple of pounds won’t make much of a difference, but after hours of traveling, you’ll be happy to be rid of any extra weight,” Sandstroem says, noting that materials like polyester or nylon are both lightweight and durable.
• Organization and features: You might find that a bag with an abundance of pockets or separated sections provides more ease of mind. It’s certainly simpler to keep organized. Or, if you’re someone who keeps their belongings grouped in different pouches, you can probably do with a more open-concept bag. Bear in mind any additional features that might make a difference for you, like a key leash, water bottle pocket, shoe bag, or chest straps.

21 Cute Purses For Travel That Will Actually Fit All Your Stuff

Scroll down for purses that are both stylish and spacious.

BuzzFeed Contributor

1. A transformable tote  you can wear four different ways! You can rock this as a shoulder bag, crossbody, backpack, or as a handheld purse. And, it 👏  has 👏 pockets 👏  for 👏 days — including compartments for water bottles and a laptop.

It comes with removable straps to turn it into a crossbody or backpack, has a padded compartment to hold a laptop up to 15 inches, two side pockets, and two inner mini pockets.

Pond Los Angeles is an Asian woman-owned small biz making luxurious travel products.

Promising reviews: "Brought mine on my first business trip of the year, and I LOVE IT! Size = perfect, handle length = perfect, outer pockets for passport and hotel room key = perfect, durable and looks fab = perfect! Great job!" — Lisa

"First of all — the bag is beautiful. It's beautiful to look at and beautiful to carry around. You'll get compliments. Second — it's incredibly sturdy and well-constructed. Great size, too — not too big, but just big enough to carry your laptop and all the baby stuff. Tons of large and small pockets to keep your lipstick, lip balm, pens, and moisturizers all organized. The straps are a highlight — use one for single-shoulder strap or two for backpack. YES, it's comfortable when worn as a backpack. Third — the leather quality is impressive. I spilled a matcha latte on my bag and nearly cried. One baby-wipe later, it looks brand new . Accidents happen, but the Transform tote is prepared! Did I mention that my peony bag came with adorable little pink feet?" — Phoebe

Get it from Pond Los Angeles for $285  (available in five colors). 

2. A popular  crossbody phone purse  that may look small, but it has so much room to hold all of your essentials without being bulky. It has three zipper compartments, a ton of slots for credit cards and money, and it'll fit most smartphones. I have to confess, I've been trying to decide which one to get for longer than I'd like to admit 🤫 — because not only does it have a bunch of room, but it also comes in a bunch of colors and styles!

Promising review: "Bought for a beach trip, and it was also perfect in the airport. Space for my phone, easily accessible cards, and an extra pocket for my pill container and lip balm! It’s durable and compact, also pretty sturdy — I hung my sandals from the strap while beach-combing and didn’t give them a second thought." — Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 28 colors and three styles). 

3. The well-known Marc Jacobs Tote Bag  you've probably seen all over social media because it's super chic and spacious. And, if you want extra compartments to keep it organized, reviewers recommend adding a purse organizer insert.

Promising review: "I love this bag. It’s cute and has so much room inside! I used it as a carry-on for plane rides a few times now. I’ve been able to fit my curling iron, make up, a sweater, wallet, sunglasses, some shower stuff, and more — it’s so roomy. And it zippers shut which is a plus. I got beige and really love it but I am not sure how to wash it without messing it up. I would probably go back and get black. It’s canvas material so dirt doesn't stick to it. I may buy black in the future." — jen6209

Get it from Nordstrom for $225 (available in three colors), from Marc Jacobs for $225 (available in six colors), or from Amazon for $175.90+ (available in eight colors). 

4. Or, a less expensive casual canvas tote  with three deep pockets that can hold your water bottle, umbrella, phone, and other essentials. And, it has a ton of space in the main compartment.

This is so roomy (and goes with everything), that it can even be used as a beach or gym bag and even as a weekender.

Tiacheung is a small biz that sells cute bags in various styles and colors.

Promising review: "Great everyday bag! So many compartments, which is handy. It is also quite sturdy, and the canvas material is nice and thick." — Vivi-Anna Leman

Get it from Tiacheung on Etsy for $38.69+  (originally $42.99+; available in six lining colors and an option to choose a custom color/size).

5. A  reversible faux-leather tote  because we all know it's super hard to choose the right purse when traveling to match with all of your outfits. Now, you'll have two options without having to pack an extra bag. This also has a lot of space to hold everything you'll need and it includes a zipper pouch that can double as a clutch.

Promising review: "Great bag. I bought the bag to use for my laptop and other things for when I travel. I used it this week to go to New York, it held my laptop and chargers, my wallet, my Kindle, wallet, and earphones, and shoes for changing when I got to the office. I put some smaller things in the pouch that I used to have in a zipper pouch in the side of another laptop bag I had. This was so much better and stylish and not heavy . Held up well for travel." — Carol Kennedy

Get it from Amazon for $39.99  (available in 19 colors).

6. A  backpack purse  if you want a very versatile option. You can get so much use out of this because you can use it for school or work and as the perfect vacay bag. And, just between us, you can use it as a backpack at the airport, and then switch it to a purse if any of the locations on your itinerary don't allow backpacks, like museums (shhhhh, I won't tell).

Promising review: "This bag is gorgeous. I’ve gotten lots of compliments on it. It’s a soft vegan leather and the color is very pretty. Lots of pockets, spacious and durable. I love how versatile this bag is. I use this for college and carry a ton and it all fits nicely. Im also able to transition to a purse and diaper bag. It does come with a messenger strap so you’re able to wear this over the shoulder which I love. It’s perfect for what I need. Great quality for the price. My only wish is that the lining was lighter, to make it easier to see items that are at the bottom of the bag. Other than that I highly recommend this bag." — Veronica

Get it from Amazon for $40.99+ (available in 24 colors/designs).

7. A wayyy more affordable  laptop bag that looks like the well-known Beis work tote you've likely seen all over your feed recently. This bag is perfect if you go on a lot of work-related trips or need to travel with a laptop or tablet.  

Let's get into this bag: It has three sections, one padded pocket designed for laptops or tablets up to 15.6, two big open pockets for documents or books, one large zipped pocket for your private belongings, two slip pockets and two pens pockets, and one small zipper pocket for smaller items like your ID, card, or wallet etc.

Promising reviews: "Love this bag! It fits everything I need and I love the size! Great look alike for the Beis work tote!" — Briana Ellis

"Everyone in my office thought this was an expensive bag; I received a lot of compliments. It fits two laptops and additional items and it’s cute! Also great for traveling!" — Gianna

Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in 10 colors).

8. A crossbody sling because reviewers say it's spacious and perfect for travel. The best part? You can be handsfree and have easy access to important stuff like your passport, phone, or wallet. It also comes in a variety of cute colors and has over 22,000 5-star ratings.

Promising reviews: "Used to travel around Disney with two kids. Although it seem small, it holds a lot. Love the separate pocket for my phone." — Amanda Gulla

"Great size for traveling and hiking. Love all the compartments. Light weight. Durable. Weather resistant. Vibrant color. Love it!" — nat_jax

Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in 20 colors).

9. A sleek  anti-theft messenger bag to keep all your belongings safe. This bag is slash-resistant to prevent anyone from cutting the strap. It also has RFID blocking pockets, a light, and a locking system that keeps zipper pulls secured. Plus, it has a ton of room to keep all your essentials while traveling, including two side pockets that can hold drinks, so you won't have to shell out $7 for a tiny bottle of water.

Promising review: "I bought a much smaller bag to wear for vacation in Italy and was not as happy with it. So I bought this bigger bag. It fits much more of what I want to ensure stays with me. It is a good size, very lightweight, has all the right security features, and can be used as a cross-body bag. Very comfortable and accommodating of all my "necessities." I recommend this bag for traveling. " — Christel Lopez-Berryman

Get it from Amazon for $50.99+ (available in four colors).

10. Or! An anti-theft backpack purse  with a hidden storage compartment that zips from the back, so you can keep your travel essentials secure at all times *and* easily find your tech accessories or snacks without searching too much.

Not only does the backpack open from the inside, but it also has a phone pocket, document pocket, front zippered pocket, and an exterior side pocket. It's also made of nylon, so it's waterproof and has a strap to change it into a shoulder bag.

Promising review: " This backpack lasted an entire trip through several airports and layovers, and all across our trip through Europe. It was amazing. Because the main zipper sat against my back, I never worried about getting my items stolen. But I also had the luxury of having the two front zippers that were also surprisingly spacious to hold nonprecious items such as water bottles or cheap sunglasses, etc.  This backpack also is extremely durable. It was the perfect day pack to gather knick-knacks and souvenirs for friends and family and hold whatever I shoved in it!" — H Bradshaw

Get it from Amazon for $31.49  (available in two sizes and 14 colors).

11.

12. A Badgley Mischka quilted vegan leather tote  that has two large front pockets and a trolley passthrough so it can attach to your luggage easily.

Promising review: "This bag is simply beautiful! Can’t wait to travel with it! Very high quality!" — Tweebie

Get it from Macy's for $99.99  (originally $200 and available in two colors) or Badgley Mischka for $119   (available in two colors).

Promising reviews: "I think this group of purses is a real bargain. The largest one would be great for traveling. It holds a whole lot in the middle size purse is great for every day I really like it." — N. Armstrong

" This set is just perfect for what I was looking for to travel. The large bag is well made and roomy to hold everything I want to carry-on the plane.

St Petersburg City Guide

Top things to do.

The top things to do in St Petersburg are as thrilling as a roller coaster ride. No, they won't inspire you to scream, but you’ll certainly be murmuring a few ohs and ahs of pleasure as each eye-opening moment you spend in St Petersburg is guaranteed to be something memorable that will stay with you for life.

When you're in St Petersburg you'll be able to muse over art created by one of the world's all-time best surrealist artists, Salvador Dali, as well as contemporary glasswork. Explore the past in-depth and discover what it was like in pioneering times or have an immersive art experience in a fairground atmosphere that's totally of the modern age. And there are many more museums in St Petersburg besides these that are incredibly interesting too, so allow as much time as you can for visiting them.  

• Fairgrounds St Pete: This museum is ultra-modern and as colorful as the work of Salvador Dali. Wander through this techno world of fifteen thousand square feet of artist-created digital interactive exhibits and you may well lose touch with reality. Don't worry, that's exactly what you're supposed to do, so enjoy the unique and very freaky experience.
• The Dali: The Dali is one of the two museums in the world that is dedicated to preserving the legacy left behind by the surrealist Salvador Dali. Take a moment to absorb the structure of the building housing the Dali collections as it replicates Dali's interest in molecular structure. Once inside, you'll be able to browse more than two thousand Dali-related artifacts ranging from personal objects, book illustrations, paintings, and photographs.
