Struggling to come up with ideas for those on your Christmas list who seem to be on the road ALL the time? Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. Try these holiday gift ideas for the Jetsetters and Road Warriors in your life.
Here are a few of my absolute favorite new products which have transformed the way I travel.
Longchamp Le Pliage Expandable Travel Duffel
I picked up this bag during a layover in Austria, and have used it for every trip since. It’s just the perfect size for trips between 3-6 days. Best of all, its soft sided so even when you stuff it full it still fits into the overhead compartment. Going for a shopping vacation? This baby unzips to open up to double its volume. Yes, I said DOUBLE. And the material is extra sturdy; despite many overseas trips, not a rip, tear or even a scuff on the leather handles, shoulder strap or the main bag. Duly impressive.
RavPower 6-port High Speed Charger
This company, RavPower – totally impresses me. Everybody needs a high speed charger. Seriously, why wait three hours to charge your iPad when you could get it done in 1 – especially when you’re on the road ; outlets could be scarce, and your internal clock is off? But what RavPower has done is integrated an instant backup device into their high speed charger. Just plug your external hard drive in and you can backup all of those precious photos. Yes, I know you probably have a backup solution, but this sweetheart puts it and the high speed charger all in one device. Fewer things to pack. Brilliant.
Wool Blend Funnel Neck Car Coat
I love this coat! I can wear it with a suit or with jeans, and it always looks just right. It’s especially good for the in-between seasons – when I feel like I am taking my coat off and on several times an hour. This keeps the chill at bay but is breathable enough to be comfortable when the sun comes out. And my favorite part – it still looks good even when you have a sweater with long sleeves underneath.
Worldwide Universal All-in-One International Travel Adapter
You’re not still traveling with a bulky international converter with separate plugs, are you? For shame. Switch to this little all-in-one adapter. Good for EU, UK, Asia, India and AU. I have several. Includes four USB ports so that you don’t have to deal with plug sharing or splitters.
Thursday Boot Company Duchess Women’s Chelsea Boot
These fashion forward, classically styled Chelsea boots are easy to dress up or dress down. They are super comfy for spending a long day walking along the Champs Elysees from the Arc de Triomphe to the Louvre. And they are able to handle European cobblestones without twisting an ankle.
Vero Monte Packable Slipper Socks with Grippers
Yeah, NO ONE likes to put their bare feet on the icky hotel room rug. But you sure don’t want to stay in your work shoes. But, does it make sense to pack a whole ’nother pair of shoes just for the hotel room on those evenings when you want to stay in and get room service? It does when they are super comfy, super slim and packable slippers.
