22 Cute Travel Gifts for Every Jet-Setter
You know, the ones that actually use all of their vacation days.
When she's on a plane more than she's in her own apartment, a travel-ready gift is a necessity. Help make her trips (including the not-so-glamorous part of actually getting to the destination) 10x better with these chic travel gifts, ahead, then tell her to hurry up and get her ass back home because you miss her.
Madewell The Leather Passport Case
Cute passport holders are difficult to come by, but once she gets her hands on this chic leather one she'll wonder how she made do with anything else.
Cuyana Folding Panama Hat
She won't want to jet off to her next tropical destination without this Meghan Markle-approved panama hat.

Anthropologie Luggage Tag
Found: A cute luggage tag that will help you avoid wasting time spotting your baggage.
Smythson "Travels and Experiences" Panama Notebook
Found: the luxe travel journal you've been wanting, but forget to write in when you're on the trip. Don't be that person. Write in the notebook.
Ban.do Getaway Travel Pillow
The only way to survive a flight without a sore neck? Whipping out this cute floral travel pillow that will receive plenty of compliments from your seatmates.
Summer Fridays Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask
Don't leave the house without packing Summer Fridays' Jet Lag mask. The creamy product will make your dry, dehydrated plane skin look and feel instantly brighter. The best part? It's a leave-on mask, so you don't have to worry about washing it off once you're settled in that comfy hotel bed.

Rowing Blazers and Lands' End collaborated to create a preppy-chic collection of duffles, available in six different colors, that make the perfect carry-on for a weekend road trip.
The North Face Women’s Dunraven Sherpa Crop Jacket
Surprise her with a cute North Face sherpa cropped jacket that she'll keep with her for many more Après ski trips to come.
Bag-all Weekend Getaway Set
Instead of letting her throw her dirty clothes in a plastic bag and stuff them back into her suitcase (all of us), give her something she would never buy for herself: a set of five cute drawstring bags to organize knick knacks, shoes, lingerie, pajamas, and laundry.
DRYBAR Baby Buttercup Travel Blow Dryer
If you're not one to rely on hotel blowdryers (hit-or-miss), throw this foldable, lightweight one (it's only 13 ounces) in your suitcase as a backup.
LE LABO Santal 33 & AnOther 13 Set
Le Labo's cult-classic Santal 33 and AnOther 13 scents will become her go-to for when she wants to receive endless compliments on how great she smells from the locals. Plus, no worrying about her favorite fragrance being confiscated by TSA because she accidentally forgot to pack a smaller size.
Ingramcontent 'Wanderlust: A Hiker's Companion' Book
When she's not on a Wifi-less island, she's probably dreaming about it, so why not give her some inspiration and a new piece of decor for her living room?
STATE Crosby Fanny Pack
Fanny packs have a negative connotation, but belt bags—like this gorgeous white leather one—are even cooler in 2019 than when your mom rocked them on that Disney World vacation in '97. They also happen to help deter pickpocketers, and have just enough room for a wallet, passport, and phone.
Canon Canon IVY Mobile Mini Photo Printer
Nothing's more frustrating than having a friend who never sends you the vacation photos you took together. With this mini photo printer she can easily connect a phone and print memories in real-time. Go ahead and borrow it the next time you're together and print your own. (Yes, I like to frame my photos, thankyouverymuch.)
The School Of Life Anthropologie Emotional Baggage Tote
If she loves puns, she'll love this "emotional baggage" tote. It's ideal for a quick beach getaway, or as an extra place to carry her shoes when they don't fit in the suitcase. Long live serial overpackers.
Away Travel The Everywhere Bag
Away's "Everywhere Bag" is perfect for minimalist business travelers. It's known for its built-in laptop sleeve, sneaky umbrella pocket, and water-resistant nylon exterior, which protects from any unwanted wine spills at dinner.
W&P Design W&P Design Carry On Cocktail Kit
This moscow mule cocktail kit comes with everything you need to mix up a first class–level drink, including a stirring spoon, shot funnel, ingredient card, ginger syrup, and decorative bar napkin. It's certified to make a long flight go by much faster.
Slip Silk Eye Mask
When she prefers to stick with her own sleep mask rather than the hotel's, this fahncy silk one will do the trick. Sleep mask on, world out.
