Roll with It

Halsea Luggage

A borderline scary girl crush. Mug shots from spring break ’98. A deeply rooted aversion to mayonnaise (but let’s not go into that).

It appears you have plenty of baggage. So it’s ironic that you never seem to have the right luggage. A black roly bag does not a fashion statement make.

Pack your belongings in a fetching piece of Halsea luggage. The whimsical (yet still practical) collection from a California accessories designer includes a roller suitcase, weekend bag, tote, cosmetics case, and tennis racket cover. All are made of shell-print canvas (which wipes clean easily) with leather trim and contrasting webbing and come in two colors: sunset pink with marigold accents or saltwater blue with kelp green. And they’re surprisingly affordable.

Halsea luggage is sure to make the statement you want to make — girly and fun without being fussy — while allowing you just enough room to pack all the contents of your closet.

Except those skeletons. Best to leave those where they are.

Available at Workshop, 2254 Union Street, between Steiner and Fillmore Streets (415-561-9551); Behind the Post Office, 1510 Haight Street, at Ashbury Street (415-861-2507).
