Taking Good Care of Your Designer Bag When Traveling

Designer bags can be great for traveling for a lot of reasons. If you’ve got a nice, roomy bag that looks perfect with any outfit that you throw on, you know you’re going to not only look great but also have plenty of practicality wherever you’re headed. Plus, designer bags tend to be made well and they’re sturdy enough to carry your things without having to worry about them breaking in the middle of a trip. 


However, it’s natural to have some concerns about traveling with something so expensive. So, we’ve put together some tips to keep in mind. 

Finding Your Perfect Designer Bag

First of all, if you’ve got an important trip coming up and want the bag to match, you might be thinking about investing in a designer piece to have on your shoulder. Whether you’re traveling for a big wedding or an all-important business trip, your bag could make all the difference to your appearance, and your confidence! But even if you’re just traveling for leisure and simply want a nice, sturdy bag to take along, there’s nothing wrong with investing in a designer piece – especially if you know you’re going to use it for a long time after you return home too.


Luxury bags are worth the investment! Check out the range of gorgeous Saint Laurent bag options available from SSENSE. They stock every type of bag you could imagine, whether you’re looking for a cute clutch to match your destination wedding guest outfit or a classic, sturdy tote to keep all your things safe while exploring. 

Keep Your Bag With You

if you’re traveling by air, then the first rule is to never check your designer bag. Even if you’re traveling with an airline that has a good reputation for looking after passenger luggage, you don’t know what could go wrong once your bag has gone on the conveyor belt at check-in. The good news is that most airlines will allow you to take a handbag in the cabin with you, on top of any cabin luggage that you’re taking along. Try to keep it under the seat in front of you if you can; the last thing that you want is it getting crushed in the overhead bin. 

Keep Your Bag Protected

Chances are, you’re not going to be using your designer bag all the time during your trip, so bring along a larger bag that you don’t mind getting dirty, to use for protection. This is especially important when you’re going through airport security and on your flight  – whether you’re sending your bag through the scanner or placing it in the overhead bin, a protective bag to wrap it in will make sure that it doesn’t get exposed to the dirt and grime of a public airport or airplane. And when you’re at your destination, you can use it to store your bag at night and any other time when it’s not in use, to keep it in the best condition. 


Designer bags often make the perfect option for travel – but keep these tips in mind to make sure that you bring it back in perfect condition.
