Default BV Luggage?
I travel constantly and I've been looking at possibly getting new carry on luggage. The BV website has some cute carry ons:

A trolley:

A small case:

Does anyone have these? How much can they fit? I would need to carry one week's worth of clothing and my laptop.

Would love to hear feedback regarding any of the BV luggage, not just the two I listed!

these look so lovely. i would be worried they might not be tough enough for all the banging about that happens when you travel. also because i am small, i worry about the extra weight of a leather bag. i don't personally have experience though. have you called a store to ask what the leather is like?

Just my opinion.....I no longer travel but I used to. Several years ago I invested in nice luggage only to have it ruined by the airlines and customs. Customs did the most damage as they marked the bags with INK. Rips have been repaired, handles and wheels have been replaced but the marks are there forever!

Yes, customs can be brutal. I don't intend to bring them internationally though, most of my travel is within the US.
