If fall means short road trips, cabin weekends and an occasional four-day vacation somewhere down south, we’re all in the same boat. There’s nothing quite like scenic fall travel! Knowing what to pack is fairly simple — think layers, layers and more layers. But knowing what to pack in? That’s where the challenge comes in!
For those with a rich mom wardrobe, a rugged old suitcase just won’t do. Duffel bags are a different story! They’re the ideal size for weekend trips and can actually elevate your travel get-up . . . the right duffel bags, that is; the wrong ones look like something from your high school camping trip. Every fashionista needs the right travel duffel to complete her rich mom look!
