1) Longchamp Large Le Pliage (20% off saks.com with code FRIEND3)- this bag is amazing to throw things in that you may need during the plane ride. Also, it will double as a pool bag, travel bag, or a large purse! It's durable, water-resistant, and all-around amazing!
2) Small Fashionable Carry-On- these days, checking your luggage will cost you, so why not stuff everything in a small carry-on? It makes much more sense and is a lot cheaper! This 'Hays' one is only $69.99 via Overstock.com.
3) Luggage Tag- you don't want to chance your luggage getting lost without a luggage tag! Check out this cute one that LifeHouse Press sent to me. This tag is only 5 dollars! Check out their website for more cute Lilly P. items including stationery and other gifts!
4) The iPad- I haven't purchased one of these yet, but you better believe it's on my list. I am currently waiting for the 3G version to ship out in the next couple of weeks to purchase one. This little thing is perfect for traveling as you can watch movies, read books, or surf the internet!
What are some of your travel essentials?

Love the Herve bags, especially that color! Mine is khaki, but I'd have to agree, definitely the best bag for various activities!
My go-to item for traveling would have to be my Hartmann luggage. I've used it for years, and love the tan color of it. The best part? It's got a lifetime warranty. So, if something breaks on it? You just send it off and they'll fix it, free of charge. O haven't had to send mine off yet. :)
Have fun in Vegas!
Great list! I've been dreaming of an I-pad... but it keeps getting pushed down on the list for a new pair of shoes :)
Thanks for the Saks discount code! Definitely going to finally order my Longchamp.. love the bright colors! Do you know how long that code is good for?
all of the above! i just got back from a trip to southern cal and brought my le pliage and my orange hays carry-on and my new ipad. definitely all travel must-haves!
I am a big fan of the small carry-on! I love being able to say "No, I will not be checking any bags today." It's like instantly getting a discount on your trip! It's also a lot quicker getting out of the airport when you don't have to wait on your luggage.
My iPod has to be present when I'm traveling. It keeps me sane in all situations: talkative neighbor, crying baby, annoying flight attendant; just pop in the headphones and you're all set.
Diane- the code is good 'til the 25th of April :)
How cute is that little suitcase? I will check it out! And yes, you have to get the iPad. It brings me great joy.
I love this post! I want one of everything one your list! I am going now to overstock to order that littel suitcase! I am like you I am waiting on the WiFi/3G iPad! Cant wait!!
I need that fuschia hays carry on! I'm going to Las Vegas soon too, and that would be perfect! Not to mention, that Lily luggage tag would go perfect with the suitcase. Great list lady!
I need a new Longchamp bag for my Thailand trip. I am headed over to saks.com right now! Thanks!
You know I am obsessed with traveling in style! In addition to those items, I've got to have a pashmina or extra long boyfriend sweater and a pair of sunglasses. I also keep a little pouch handy with my DL, credit card, and $1s for tips. You gotta do a follow up on travel wardrobe for me!
Thanks for the heads-up about the Heys luggage on overstock!
Did you see you can get your tote monogrammed at Saks, not the pretty ocean blue you picture but still is a good thing, no? :) xoxo
My longchamp is also always a part of my travel ensemble. I use it as a carry on and purse once I reach my destination. It's so versatile. Have a great time in Vegas!
I love longchamp for travelling! I have the large le pliage in a plum color and I absolutely love it - so much fits in that sucker! When I travel I also require a big scarf/pashmina because I'm always cold on planes. I also love wearing comfy clothes - leggins and Revas are my "go to".
Loving your essentials -- those little carry on bags are super cute!
I'm gonna have to break down and get a Le Pliage, aren't I?
Girl, what color is that on your nails in the luggage tag pic? I love it!!!
That is my exact carry-on and luggage tag for my south american travels this summer!
Oh, that little suitcase is adorable.
I'm a huge fan of the Le Pliage for travel after finally having bought one last summer; in fact, mine is that very blue you have pictured. Absolutely vital.
My other travel must-have for long flights are my Merrell zip-up tennis shoes; no, they aren't exactly Louboutins, but they are Euro sporty looking enough and so easy to take on and off through security.
