The Big Lug

You may think, right about this time of winter, that what you need to get away from are 20-degree days, ash-gray skies, and snowed-in parking.

That much is obvious. What you really need to get away from is your boring old luggage.

Let’s assess. When jetting to Miami, how can you lug a beaten brown leather weekender to The Setai? Are you actually thinking of showing up in Turks & Caicos with a big tweed suitcase?

Stow that dark, heavy stuff in favor of luggage as light, sleek, and fun as your destination. Angela Adams’s brightly patterned weekenders. Made nearby in chilly Portland, Maine, the bags come in neon leathers and inspired graphics splashed across structured canvas. They’re small enough to stash as carry-ons but roomy enough to fit a respectable number of weekend outfits.

Not that you’ll need much more than a bikini.
