Top 7 Pinterest-Worthy Luggage Options for Travelers

Pack your bags!

I feel as if I’ve spent most of my adult life looking for the perfect piece of luggage. As a regular traveler, you need different baggage for different trips. I must have a large purse or tote bag to carry my personal items like a wallet, small electronics, and other sundry items. For short trips, I need a roller board suitcase that fits into an overhead bin and has a slot for my MacBook Pro. If the trip is longer, I need luggage with wheels, compartments, and pockets to carry everything I need.

Therefore, I sought baggage inspiration for my next luggage purchase.

01. The O.G. Bag

Could this be the perfect carry-on bag? The O.G. bag from Lo and Sons is my pick for an ideal carry-on bag (and doubles as a gym bag). I took an overnight trip to London, which required a light approach. This trip wasn’t long enough to justify bringing a roller board, so I carried my O.G. bag, which was spacious enough to hold a change of clothes, an extra pair of shoes (this pocket is particularly handy), and toiletries—leaving room to spare.

02. Overland Equipment Donner Bag

This tip for the Overland Equipment Donner Bag came from the “A Little Adrift” blog. I’m a fan of travel bags that have compartments for everything, like this bag. It features two outside water bottle pockets (one can hold a portable umbrella), a roomy main compartment, a key leash, and a front section with pockets for sunglasses, passports, and snacks.

03. Tag Coronado II 5 Piece Spinner Luggage Set

If you’re searching for a complete set of luggage, the Tag Coronado II Spinner Set could be an excellent option. This five-piece set includes both 29-inch and 25-inch spinner suitcases, an airline bin-friendly 21-inch two-wheeled upright roller board, and a 15-inch travel tote. It is available in green and gray.

04. Diane von Furstenberg Private Jet II Carry-On Expandable Spinner Suitcase

The Diane von Furstenberg roller board, in a vibrant peach color, helps you stand out from a sea of black bags. At 21 inches, it fits nicely into an airline’s overhead bin, offering a stylish option for your travels.

05. Samsonite EZ Cart 21-inch Spinner

If you tend to live out of your suitcase, the Samsonite EZ Cart 21-inch Spinner is the ideal bag for you. It features shelves to keep clothing neatly organized, along with deep pockets designed to hold smaller items and toiletries.

06. Best Carry-on Bags for Kids

Don’t forget about the kids when selecting luggage. My pre-teen daughter is already a world traveler with her own set of luggage. In this Best Carry-on Bags for Kids pin, the Pit Stops for Kids blog recommends several bags specifically for children: the Eagle Creek FlipSwitch wheeled roller board that converts to a backpack, the Crumpler Spring Peeper, a sturdy roller bag featuring multiple organizational panels and pockets, and the L.L. Bean Adventure Duffle, which includes skateboard wheels and compartments that separate clean clothes from dirty ones.

07. Fugu

Fugu is a convertible suitcase that was successfully funded on Kickstarter. When used as a carry-on, its dimensions are 20.4 inches long by 15.3 inches wide. However, when it opens to its full size, it measures 20.4 inches long by 15.3 inches wide by 29.5 inches high. Fugu can even double as a portable stand and has built-in removable shelves for storing clothing and shoes.
