Ever After: Chic Carry-On Bags
Even though you’ll have to wait until the plane lands to show off your style savvy honeymoon wardrobe, you can still give them a sneak peek while your seat belt is fastened. These chic carry-on bags are big enough to pack all you need on-the-go (keeping regulations in mind) and get you through the flight fashionably.

The buttery leather exterior of the Reece satchel features three front zip pockets and a front flap pocket for all your must-haves (hello, passport). The top snap flap pouch has a two-way zip-around closure, so turbulence won’t mean your stuff goes flying. There’s even a whistle hanging from the side, in case you need to get your spouse’s attention. ($170, available in sky blue or “Vachetta” camel at Cynthia Rowley, 164 Newbury Street)

The Santiago weekender is a soft reminder that vacations are for relaxing.
