The 23 Best Weekender Bags For Long-Weekend Travel

Lengthy trips call for breaking out our best rolling luggage, but what about those two- to three-day escapes? For the quick getaway, we need a travel bag that allows us to sail smoothly through various micro-jaunts, whether they’re via plane, train, or automobile — the kind of multifaceted carrier that can hold the travel outfits and accessories we want without weighing us down, all while still looking stylish. This is where the weekender bag shines.The best travel bags for women run the gamut in terms of size and shape. What’s right for you depends upon your personal packing preferences: There are durable duffles ripe for overstuffing, and large canvas totes for folding up an extra outfit or two. Because each of these bags is built for holding a select amount of belongings, they will ultimately help streamline your packing process to include only the essentials for short stays. No matter which one you pick, rest assured you’ll be able to flutter to and from all your future adventures easily by slinging one of them over your shoulder. Whether you’re traveling for one night or three, these are the best weekender bags to help you do it in style.All linked products are independently selected by our editors.
