Longchamp Luggage - Traveling in Style

Longchamp BagImage by ralph and jenny via Flickr
A few months ago, I decided I was overdue for a proper vacation.  The last time I had been away for any length of time was five years ago.  After my first year of university, my parents generously sponsored me to go on a European tour.  I visited eight countries in fourteen days, and slept in youth hostels the entire time.  The only luggage I brought with me was my trusty backpack.  Following the advice of some more seasoned travelers, I sewed a Canadian flag on my backpack.  Everyone loves Canadians, eh!
This trip was to be somewhat different.  I have decided to go back to Europe, but this time I will be traveling in style.  I am planning to take a first-class flight into London, and I am in dire need of some first-class luggage.  Luggage is such a difficult thing to shop for.  It is one of those things that will not be used often enough to justify any great expense, but to purchase cheap luggage would be a complete waste of time and money.  I decided to get together with the friends I will be going away with, for an afternoon of good old American shopping.
We spent the afternoon going from department store to big-box store to specialty store and back again.  I finally narrowed my choices down to three potential sets of luggage; Longchamp, Briggs & Riley, and Zero Halliburton.  They each have certain appealing aspects, and they are all reasonably priced.  I read somewhere that American Tourister luggage has one of the best warranties in the industry.  Briggs & Riley have been manufacturing quality products since 1993, and they also offer an extensive warranty.  Zero Halliburton is, well…..Zero Halliburton.
Once I thought about it for a little while, I realized that a Longchamp suitcase was the one for me.  I'll admit that I am actually in love with this luggage.  If James Bond were transporting a suitcase filled with priceless gems, he would use Longchamp luggage.  I ended up purchasing a 26-inch Suiter for the slightly bloated price of $900.00.  It is constructed from a wonderful brushed aluminum that looks like it would withstand an explosion, much less the baggage handlers at Heathrow.  I will be bringing my prized collection of designer longchamp purses with me, so I can rest easy that they will be well protected in my awesome new suitcase.  Do you think I should put a Canadian flag on it?

Limited Edition Kate Moss For Longchamp Zebra Bags

Author:barbrine

Just last week, it was announced that Kate Moss is working on a multi-season handbag line for Longchamp. Kate Moss’s relationship with Longchamp has been extended beyond eight seasons of modeling. I will give you a sneak peek of these bags.

Zebra is one of the identifications of Kate Moss for Longchamp. Each bag has special zebra lining, matching with zebra scarf. The logo - Kate Moss For Longchamp was exquisitely sewn inside. These styles are all limited edition. There are three sub-collections: the Gloucester cylinder luggage bags, Gloucester travel bag, and Sohoclutch. They are not only with the perfect accessories, but also Kate Moss’ summary of travelling experience.
We get a look at the goods which hit stores Feb.11 – and Kate elaborates on the first collection and her inspirations:
The emerald green pochette, whose color I love, I wanted to be very simple, based on the shape of an envelope. I would wear it with all black or all navy. Because I love to wear dove grey, I wanted a bag in that color to go with my grey jeans. The zebra was inspired by an old pony printed valise from the \'70s that my boyfriend [Jamie Hince] brought back from San Francisco, very dry, very trashed, without any glamour, and which I loved. As for the bags in cognac leather, it\'s a color and a very supple leather that we found in equestrian accessories stores, and we unfortunately can no longer find.
No matter how ordinary the bags are, in Kate Moss’ hand, they will always become IT bags. This cooperation with Longchamp will absolutely bring all of you great surprise.

Longchamp Carry On Luggage - Know the Size Rules!

Luggage                                            Image via Wikipedia
Obviously, if you're going on a trip, you're going to need luggage. Have you considered your carry on size? With increased fares to travel by plane, it's very important to know what size and weight restrictions are regarding your carry on luggage.

Every airline is different, so it is essential to verify with them so you are not surprised during your check in. It also help if you are shopping for Longchamp luggage.

Weight will inevitably be a factor if you are checking bags. Some airlines have no weight restrictions for carry on, others are as low as 10 pounds, some as high as 50 pounds.

Most airlines will allow one piece of carry on luggage and one personal item. They consider a personal item as carry on. The weight is the total of the two.  Personal items include a purse, laptop bag, reading material or another small (no bigger than 36”) carry on bag.  Keep those carry on luggage limits in mind when packing!

The standard carry on luggage rules for Longchamp are 22” X 14” X 9” for a total of 45”.  Again, these dimensions vary both by airline and shape of the Longchamp bag.  Even if your Longchamp luggage doesn’t exceed the allowed dimensions, the airline can make you prove that the bag will fit by putting it in a box, and if it won’t fit, your Longchamp luggage will be checked.

Travel Gear Luggage: Things You Should Know When Buying

Author:Lynn Porter
If you are like me and love to travel you know it\'s important to make sure your luggage is as ready to travel as you are. One of the most important things to consider when buying travel luggage is the color. First, most travel gear luggage comes in black which makes it extremely difficult to pick out your luggage at the airport. You can write on it or use a colored scarf or some other item to make your luggage stand out but it\'s best to look into buying travel luggage that comes in not only different colors but different styles. Buying travel gear luggage with polka dots or triangles or some other unusual design will definitely help your luggage stand out when it\'s time to retrieve them.
