“There are two things I love about the Liffner bag,” says Libby Page, Vogue’s executive shopping director. “Firstly, the large square base makes it easy to pack and stack things in; secondly, the long straps mean it sits comfortable beneath the arm.

By now, you’re likely aware of the Dragon Diffusion craze (and maybe even own one of their beautifully woven totes). For travel, their burgundy tote, crafted from durable leather, is a must-have. Vogue’s shopping director, Talia Abbas, shares: “I have three Dragon Diffusion bags and counting, that’s how much I love them! I have a small Santa Croce that I often hand-carry in a big Alex Mill tote, plus two larger styles that shapeshift from everyday carryall when I’m in New York to personal item when traveling.” She adds, “Because there’s no structured base, the woven styles pack flat, too—extra convenient to avoid creasing the leather.”
