During the tedious chore of packing for a recent weekend getaway, I came to a sudden realization. Aside from the fact that I need more shoes (always), I also need more fabulous luggage. I don’t necessarily require an entire milieu of designer suitcases of every shape and size, but I could definitely use at least one go-to piece for short trips and sleepovers. I mean, let’s face it — my old high school gym bag just isn’t cutting it (seriously, that’s what I use). Plus, the whole charade of packing and unpacking, not to mention hauling said luggage to and from my vacay destination would be infinitely more enjoyable if I had a chic designer bag. Enter the latest object of my insatiable label lust: the Alexander Wang Daphne Duffel.
Naturally, Alexander Wang is known for taking practical, streamlined pieces and giving them an edgy spin, and this duffel is no exception. I love how the embossed leather gives it a subtle sheen while the button studs add some interest without making it look too hardware heavy. This is a bag you can take anywhere and look expensive (well, it is) without looking too showy. The only problem is that I’d probably be too protective of it to check it at the airport!
