Will travel with a leather cross body bag typically as I do not like any nylon or plasticky type of bags. My latest is a Coach Legacy Duffle which is very low key and can fit the essentials like ipad&iphone.
Previously used my Balenciaga Velo and it's now pretty banged up but still used occasionally. Lambskin and travelling does not mix no matter how careful one can be! Got a big scratch in the front on its first trip-ouch! Bad idea.
Prior to that was another Coach pebbled leather cross-body/duffle bag which has travelled along with me for many years. Still missed it after I sold it 2 years ago. Reverted back to Coach now obviously as a travel bag in its sisterly reincarnation of a similar style. They're very durable, stylish and inexpensive.
I will absolutely not bring any loud or expensive designer bags when travelling - will be a target for thieves and risk being damaged during the journey. Neither will I bring my expensive jewelry.
When travelling, select your bags based on form and function. Either a cross-body or shoulder carry bag is best. Nothing too expensive that would cause you and your wallet to cringe if it gets scratched, color-transfer from airplane pouch/floor. Forget about "designer" bags when travelling unless you can afford to trash it.
