Style On The Go

Sometimes it’s the little things that brighten your day. While I’m not doing nearly as much traveling these days (I’ve got a serious case of wanderlust) I really love cosmetic and dopp bags because they’re such an easy and fun way to add some personality to your closet and travels. 

I recently scored some adorable Kate spade bags and wanted to share the love! 

Kate Spade Polka Dot Cosmetic Case. $6 from Goodwill.

I love the classic vinyl covered polka dot bag I found because it’s so retro (although nothing beats an OG Caboodle case!). It’s super roomy which is great for those longer trips where you’re hauling half your vanity along with you. I could also see it as a great way to store things like sewing or craft supplies. Or what about your electronics (and all their charging cables!) when you’re traveling? Admit it, we all lug them around so why not keep them together and organized in a cute vanity case- who cares if it was meant for makeup!

The mini floral printed saffinano leather is super cute and is a little more classy: it would look really great as a companion to a handbag or tote to keep little things like hair ties, hand sanitizer, and chapstick (a must). 

Kate Spade travel case. $8 from Salvation Army Thrift Store.

My last find is either a lunchbag or a cosmetic bag- I honestly can’t tell, lol- but  I’m addicted to polka dots so I couldn’t say no. Plus it was only $8 from the Salvation Army Thrift Store so regardless of whatever purpose it ends up serving will remain a great find. Check out some of the great options below- from the designer splurge to the affordable but cute AF choice.

Since sharing is caring I rounded up some of my favorite options so you can take home your own style on the go- from the (affordable) designer splurge to the cheap but chic. Happy shopping!
