9 Adorable Duffel Bags For Your Next Trip

by Melanie Richtman

With every airline coming up with their own ridiculous baggage rules (I'm looking at you, Spirit), it can be hard to get excited about packing when you know that all of your belongings have to fit in a backpack that belongs to a kindergartner. But these cute travel duffel bags make the whole packing process a lot more pleasant, since you'll know that when you arrive at your destination, you'll look cool AF.

Whether you're going on a chic international vacation and need a cute carry bag or you're going to visit your parents for the weekend, a duffel bag is a great solution for lugging around all of your stuff in a fashionable way.

Regardless of your personal style, there is a duffel bag out there that will match your taste. Herschel makes some classic ones that definitely hold up to the stresses of traveling, and Dagne Dover has a nice duffel with so many compartments and pockets that you will be able to keep anything and everything organized.

Duffel bags are a nice investment because they not only work for traveling, but they can also be utilized for every day activities, like lugging your laundry to the laundromat or going to the gym. But without further ado, here are 9 cute duffel bags that are perfect for your next vacation.
