Chic, compact and easy to carry.

If like us, you have a particular affinity for handbags, your collection will cater to every outfit, event and colour combination. But when it comes to travel, only a few handbags styles fit the bill.

If you’re going on vacation, it’s likely suitcase space will limit you to just one or two travel-approved handbags, making it essential to choose wisely.

So, what should you look for in the perfect travel handbag? We recommend crossbody styles that free up your hands for navigation and taking holiday snaps. If you prefer a tote or shoulder bag, consider styles that have zippers or fold over the top to help keep things secure. It’s also ideal to keep the size small enough so it won’t weigh you down, but also big enough so it can fit everything you need for the day (or night).

It’s a lot to ask from one accessory, so we’ve done the groundwork for you and found the best travel-approved handbags that combine practical features with style and designer flair.
