This weekend, I'm headed to DC for DC FRESHLY SQUEEZED and while packing I realized that I don't own a proper weekender. I have a messenger, suitcases in various sizes, totebags galore, but no weekender. Frankly, I've never been able to make much sense of a category of portage that specifies the number of days for recommended use. What if it's a long weekend? Do I need to pack a weekender PLUS an overnight bag?

Luckily for those of us that have yet to master the art of packing for travel, Ally Capellino makes bags for all occasions. The 30-year-old British bag-maker's collection of signature waxed cotton satchels, rucksacks, and washbags are lined with subtle striped cotton and feature detailed webbing handles & leather buckle down straps.  My personal favorite is the 'Freddie Stripey', pictured above.
