Recommend your cute carry-on/overnight bag

I'm going to Texas this weekend and really need a carry-on bag.  I have one of those small roll-behind suite case things, but I really want a large bag w/shoulder straps...something kinda stylish, but not crazy expensive.  I've looked in Mori Luggage and Dillard's.  I also checked Ross.  Can't find anything.  I'm going to check Marshall's and maybe Stein Mart...possibly Belk too.  I'm sure there's a great place to get something like this, I just can't seem to think of it.

Re: Recommend your cute carry-on/overnight bag

  • I got a really cute one from Kohls - it's a Nine & Co (division of Nine West).  I got it for less than $30
  • don't forget TJMaxx.  I always use my Vera Bradley bags in cases like this.  But those aren't cheap by any means.
  • I'd love to look at Khol's, but it's so far from my house.  I never go out there.  Dang it!

    I'll probably go to TJ Maxx today though!

  • I got a great one from Ricardo of Beverly Hills...they are the ones who make the Vera Bradley luggage but mine's not Vera, it's just Ricardo...it's just plain black and will carry everything even a laptop. It has a section that will keep hot food hot or cold food cold and it's about the size of a briefcase and holds a ton of stuff. I found it online.

    I also have a Vera Bradley microfiber brown weekender bag that's good for travel. It has handles and a shoulder strap.

    I love TJ MAX for bags though...I bet you can find one you like there. Good luck.

  • Ditto on great finds at TJ Maxx!  I'm not much help.  I use my Vera Bradley bags for trips such as these.

  • I ended up finding a really cute one today at Marshall's!  It's Diane Von Furstenberg, but was only $69 versus the original $150+ price!  It's red and big and even has wheels and a hide-away handle so I can pull it instead of always carrying it.  I love getting great finds/deals like that!  Thanks for the suggestions though!
